Liquid crystal display device

摘要

In the disclosed liquid crystal display device, electrode portions are formed in sealing member regions on a first substrate and a second substrate, respectively, so that the electrode portions are electrically connected to each other through a conductive material in a sealing member. A control structure for controlling a flow of an alignment film material before curing is provided at least between the electrode portion and a pixel region on at least one of the first substrate or the second substrate so that at least part of the electrode portion is exposed from an alignment film.

1. A liquid crystal display device comprising:
a first substrate; a second substrate facing the first substrate; a liquid crystal layer provided between the first substrate and the second substrate; and a sealing member provided between the first substrate and the second substrate to surround and seal the liquid crystal layer, wherein each of the first substrate and the second substrate includes a pixel region as a display region, and a frame region as a non-display region which surrounds the pixel region and includes a sealing member region for forming the sealing member, alignment films, each extending from the pixel region to the sealing member region, are formed on a surface of the first substrate facing the liquid crystal layer and a surface of the second substrate facing the liquid crystal layer, respectively, by curing an alignment film material having fluidity, electrode portions are formed in the sealing member regions of the first substrate and the second substrate, respectively, so that the electrode portions are electrically connected to each other through a conductive material, a control structure is formed at least between the electrode portion and the pixel region on at least one of the first substrate or the second substrate to control a flow of the alignment film material before curing so that at least part of the electrode portion is exposed from the alignment film, and the control structure is in the form of a ring which is chipped at part thereof opposite the pixel region when viewed in a direction normal to a surface of the first substrate or the second substrate.
