Abstract

In this paper, high precision molding process was developed using a soft mold to fabricate fine closed-types of the barrier ribs for PDP. A green sheet was employed to fabricate the barrier ribs in this process. The soft mold with good demolding characteristics was replicated from a master mold. An optimal forming load which would not fracture the soft mold was also determined. The barrier ribs of rectangular type with upper width of $30\;{\mu}m$ would be fabricated by this process.
