ABSTRACT:
A method is described for repairing failure points, regions or locations in an electronic device to have a perfect function when a semiconductor device including an LCD of other electronic device has defects. Described is a method of transferring a single or multi-layer thin film piece into a recess with the physical properties of the thin film piece unchanged.An electronic device is described incorporating a substrate; and a plurality of thin films laminated on the substrate and part of the thin films are formed on a predetermined circuit pattern, wherein a transfer film for repairing a defect is fitted into a recess where the low layers of the thin films are exposed by removing part of a single or multi-layer thin films covering a defective portion included on the thin films and its surrounding portion. Further, a method of repairing a defective portion included in the electronic device comprises the steps of: removing the thin films covering the defective portion and its surrounding portion to form a recess and exposing the lower layers of the thin films; and fitting a transfer film into the recess to attach the transfer film onto the exposed thin films.
