1. A method of fabricating a liquid crystal display subassembly, said method comprising the steps of:
- providing a substantially transparent substrate member;
disposing a layer of substantially opaque material upon one side of said substrate, said substantially opaque material being a black polyimide material;
forming at least one opening through said layer of substantially opaque material;
disposing a light influencing material in said at least one opening;
disposing a continuous layer of a transparent, passivating material atop said layer of opaque material and said light influencing material; and
disposing a layer of transparent, conductive material atop said passivating layer.

Abstract
A light influencing element and the process of fabricating the same is disclosed, wherein the light influencing element is fabricated by disposing a layer of a substantially opaque material upon a transparent substrate. One or more openings or wells may then be cut or formed in the surface of the layer of opaque material. Into such openings a light influencing material is then disposed, preferable said materials are injected thereinto as by ink-jet type injection heads. Liquid crystal displays and subassemblies formed upon the light influencing elements of the instant invention are also provided.

13. A method of fabricating a liquid crystal display, said method comprising the steps of:
-
providing a substantially transparent first substrate member; disposing a layer of substantially opaque material upon one side of said first substrate; forming at least one opening through said layer of substantially opaque material; disposing a light influencing material in said at least one opening; disposing a continuous layer of a transparent, passivating material atop said layer of opaque material and said light influencing material; disposing a layer of transparent, conductive material atop said passivating layer; providing a second substantially transparent substrate member having a continuous layer of a transparent conductive material disposed on one surface thereof, said second substrate being spacedly disposed from said first substrate and arranged so that the layer of transparent conductive material of the second substrate faces the layer of transparent conductive material of the first substrate; and disposing a layer of liquid crystal material between said first and said second substrates.
