Liquid crystal display device

摘要

An array substrate including a first substrate, an under-resin layer formed on one surface of the first substrate, a display area, and an integrated circuit mounted on a mounting portion located apart from the under-resin layer. A counter substrate is arranged facing the array substrate and includes a second substrate and a shield layer formed on the second substrate for shielding a peripheral area surrounding the display area. A plurality of pillar-shaped spacers is arranged on the under-resin layer in the peripheral area, the pillar-shaped spacers formed in the seal material. Spacer area density of the pillar-shaped spacers arranged in the peripheral area adjacent to the mounting portion seen from the counter substrate side is larger than that of the pillar-shaped spacers arranged in the peripheral area not adjacent to the mounting portion.

1. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:
an array substrate including an under-resin layer formed on the array substrate, a plurality of pixel electrodes formed on the under-resin layer in a matrix shape and forming a display area, and an integrated circuit mounted on a mounting portion located apart from the under-resin layer; a counter substrate arranged facing the array substrate and including a shield layer formed on the counter substrate for shielding a peripheral area surrounding the display area; a seal material for attaching the array substrate and the counter substrate at a seal region in the peripheral area; spacers including a first spacer arranged in the display area, and second spacers arranged in the seal region; and a liquid crystal layer held in a space surrounded with the array substrate, the counter substrate, and the seal material; wherein the under-resin layer is exposed from the array substrate on an end portion of the array substrate facing an end portion of the counter substrate, the seal material contacts the exposed end portion of the array substrate in the seal region, a height of the second spacers arranged in the seal region adjacent to the mounting portion is smaller than a height of the second spacers arranged in the seal region not adjacent to the mounting portion, second spacers arranged in the seal region adjacent to the mounting portion are arranged in a houndstooth check shape, the houndstooth check shape comprises second spacers arranged in the seal region adjacent to the mounting portion and additional spacers interposed between the second spacers in the seal region adjacent to the mounting portion, thereby the spacer area density of the second spacers arranged in the seal region adjacent to the mounting portion is higher than the spacer area density of the second spacers arranged in the seal region not adjacent to the mounting portion, the spacer area density is a ratio of total cross-sectional areas of the second spacers arranged in a unit area to the unit area.
