  • Liquid crystal device and method for manufacturing same with spacers formed by photolithography
    Patent number: 6853431
    Abstract: An improved liquid crystal device and manufacturing method for same are described. In the device, a pair of substrates, between which a liquid crystal layer is disposed, is joined with pillars inbetween functioning as spacers which are provided of photocurable resin by photolithography. With this structure, the spacers can be in surface contact with the inside surfaces of the substrates on which electrode arrangement and active devices are formed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 27, 2002
    Date of Patent: February 8, 2005
    Assignee: Semiconductor Energy Laboratory Co., Ltd.
    Inventors: Masahiko Sato, Masakazu Odaka, Akira Mase, Toru Takayama, Kaoru Tabata, Chizuru Ishigaki, Ippei Kobayashi, Toshimitsu Konuma, Toshiharu Yamaguchi, Toshio Watanabe, Osamu Aoyagi, Hiroyuki Sakayori, Akio Osabe, Shunpei Yamazaki
