A new cell process for TFT‐LCDs which integrates the liquid crystal (LC) injection with the glass substrate assembly process has been developed and has similarities to that previously reported for passive LCDs. In this process LC is applied in droplets directly onto the glass substrate, and results in reduced LC waste, reduction of fabrication time, and overall process simplification. With this technology, we fabricated 22 inch diagonal, high‐resolution products and achieved better cell gap uniformity and fast (16.7 ms) time response for the in‐plane switching (IPS) mode LCDs.
