Abstract: In an in-plane switching mode liquid crystal display device, a liquid crystal layer is interposed between a first substrate and a second substrate. The first substrate is provided with a first electrode member having a comb-tooth-like portion and a second electrode member so as to generate an electric field between the first electrode member and the second electrode member. Further, a protruded electrode member is provided so as to be branched from at least one of a portion short of a tip end portion and a portion short of a base portion of the comb-tooth-like portion so as to form a branched shape of an L-shaped portion in an integrated planar shape with combination of the protruded electrode member and one of the tip end portion and the base portion.

Abstract: The present invention provided a multilayer printed circuit board and a liquid crystal display unit which the reliability of connection with a predetermined member using an anisotropic conductive binding material is improved. The multilayer printed circuit board is provided with a predetermined connection region for connecting with the predetermined member, and comprises a plurality of terminals formed and disposed in the predetermined connection region and connected to each wiring formed on the multilayer printed circuit board, and at least one dummy wiring which is formed on a different layer from the layer on which the terminals are formed, and the dummy wiring is disposed in a corresponding area between the neighboring terminals.

Abstract: In a fabrication method of an LCD panel having a display area on which display area spacers 6 are arranged and employing the liquid crystal falling-drop method for filling the panel with liquid crystal, the display area spacer 6 is formed of an elastic material such as resin and has an initial size in a cell gap direction larger than an appropriate cell gap d0 necessary to provide an appropriate liquid crystal display. An excess deformation of the panel to make the cell gap smaller than the appropriate cell gap d0 after the liquid crystal display panel is put under atmospheric pressure is prevented by compressive stress of the display area spacers 6.
