In some embodiments, the barrier layer is formed on the surface of the base substrate opposite the carrier substrate. In one embodiment, the barrier layer is patterned according to the size of each cell panel. For example, a base substrate is formed on all surfaces of the mother panel, while a barrier layer is formed on each cell.

At the same time as the protective film is formed, the grooves at the interface are filled with, for example, polyimide or The cell panels are covered with an acrylic organic film. When cutting along the grooves, the organic film absorbs the shock that occurs, preventing cracks. That is, all the barrier layers are completely exposed without any organic film. In this case, when each cell panel is cut along the groove at the interface, the resulting impact This increases the risk of cracks being transmitted to the layers. In this case, the grooves at the interface between the barrier layers are covered with an organic film, and the organic film is not present. To absorb the shock that would otherwise be transmitted to the barrier layer, each cell panel is softly cut and the barrier layer is In one embodiment, the grooves of the interface may be covered.
