Mask and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a mask and a preparation method thereof. The mask comprises a mask body, wherein the mask body is provided with a detection opening, and a balance pattern usedfor balancing stretching stress born by the detection opening, the balance pattern and the detection opening are located on two sides of a center line of the mask body in the first direction length correspondingly, and the first direction is perpendicular to the stretching direction of the mask body. After the mask is stretched, the deformation is uniform, the alignment precision stability of themask can be improved, and the evaporation deviation caused by the poor alignment precision of the mask in the evaporation process is avoided.
