Abstract

The present invention provides a liquid crystal display device with a narrow picture frame which reduces a sealing defect by suppressing spreading of an orientation film. In a region inside a sealing material and outside a display region, an uneven surface for suppressing spreading of the orientation film is formed. It is preferable that the uneven surface is formed using an insulation film and, at the same time, an etching stopper layer is formed below the insulation film which forms the uneven surface. It is more preferable that the uneven surface and the stopper layer are simultaneously formed with a layer used for forming pixels in a step for forming such a layer thus preventing the increase of manufacturing steps.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A liquid crystal display device comprising:
 a plurality of projection formed between orientation film and sealing material;   wherein height of the projection is lower than that of the orientation film and that of the sealing material.   
   
   
       2 . A liquid crystal display according to  claim 1 , height of the sealing material is higher than that of the orientation film. 
   
   
       3 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 2 , wherein the projection is formed on a transparent conductive film. 
   
   
       4 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 3 , wherein the transparent conductive film is ITO. 
   
   
       5 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 3 , wherein another transparent conductive film is formed on the projection. 
   
   
       6 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 5 , wherein the orientation film and the sealing material is overlapped on the another transparent conductive film. 
   
   
       7 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 6 , wherein the another transparent conductive film is ITO. 
   
   
       8 . A liquid crystal display device comprising:
 a plurality of projection formed between orientation film and sealing material;   wherein a part of the orientation film is overlapped with a part of the plurality of projection, and a part of sealing material is overlapped with a part of the plurality of projection.   
   
   
       9 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 8 , wherein the sealing material and the orientation film is spaced in plane view. 
   
   
       10 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 9 , wherein a part of the plurality of projection is arranged at the space in plane view. 
   
   
       11 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 10 , wherein the plurality of projection is arranged in line shape. 
   
   
       12 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 11 , wherein the plurality of projection in line shape is arranged alternatively in plane view. 
   
   
       13 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 10 , wherein the plurality of projection is arranged in circle shape. 
   
   
       14 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 13 , wherein the plurality of projection in circle shape is arranged alternatively in plane view. 
   
   
       15 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 14 , wherein density of the plurality of projection in circle shape arranged between the sealing material and the orientation film is higher than a plurality of space arranged in display region in plane view. 
   
   
       16 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 10 , wherein the projection is formed on a transparent conductive film. 
   
   
       17 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 11 , wherein the projection is formed on a transparent conductive film. 
   
   
       18 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 12 , wherein the projection is formed on a transparent conductive film. 
   
   
       19 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 13 , wherein the projection is formed on a transparent conductive film. 
   
   
       20 . The liquid crystal display device according to  claim 14 , wherein the projection is formed on a transparent conductive film.
