Claim 1
Independent Claim
326 words
A process for producing a color filter, the color filter including an insulating substrate, transparent electrodes for a plurality of colors, a black matrix and a coloring matter layer, the color filter further including, near one side of the surface thereof, an electrode contact zone having an electrode contact window belt for each group of the transparent electrodes corresponding to each kind of color, the process comprising: (a) forming a lamination of an insulating substrate and patterned transparent electrodes laminated thereon for a plurality of colors, said lamination including an electrode contact zone having a plurality of units of electrode lines, each unit having a number of electrode lines equal and corresponding to the number of the colors; (b) forming a black matrix on said lamination, said black matrix having a surface resistance of not less than 10 7 Ω/cm 2 ; (c) simultaneously with the step of forming said black matrix, covering sections of said electrode contact zone with the material of said black matrix so that the material of said black matrix covers all electrode lines except a part of each electrode line for each color in each unit of electrode lines; (d) forming an electrically conductive layer in said electrode contact zone over said material of said black matrix and over the electrode lines for each color so that an electrode contact window belt unit is formed for each color and all of the electrode lines in one electrode contact window belt unit for one color are electrically connected with each other but insulated from the electrode lines in other electrode contact window belt units for the other colors, whereby all of the transparent electrodes for one color are electrically connected and the transparent electrodes for different colors are electrically insulated from each other; and (e) forming a porous coloring matter layer on said transparent electrodes by a micellar disruption method for one color at a time by selectively using said transparent electrodes.
