Cell thickness detection method, cell thickness control system, and manufacturing method for liquid crystal device

摘要

Light is transmitted through a compressing clamp which clamps the liquid crystal display panel 10, and the spectrum of light is obtained by a spectrometer 141. A cell thickness is detected based on a wavelength or a frequency at which the spectrum has the minimum or maximum value. The obtained cell thickness is compared with a desired value, and a pressure control unit 132 supplies the compressing clamp with a fluid in accordance with the result of the comparison.
