Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes a first flexible substrate and a second flexible substrate, a liquid crystal layer sealed between the first substrate and the second substrate by a frame-shaped sealing member, a display area located inside the sealing member, a non-display area located outside the display area and a plurality of spacers interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. A relief area in which a gap between the first substrate and the second substrate is larger than that in the display area is provided in at least a portion of the non-display area.

Abstract: Adhesive layers are formed on the two opposing surfaces of a transparent support. At least one of the adhesive layers is made of a material of which the cured state may be changed. The adhesive layer is irradiated with light and a lens sheet is then pressed against the adhesive layer. The adhesive layer is cured. In this illustrative way, a laminate film of the lens sheet fixed to the transparent support via the adhesive layer may be obtained. The laminate film may be bonded to a polarizing plate on the viewer's side of a liquid crystal display element via the other adhesive layer.

Abstract: Adhesive layers are formed on the two opposing surfaces of a transparent support. At least one of the adhesive layers is made of a material of which the cured state changes by application of external force, such as a photocurable resin. A separator on the adhesive layer is peeled off, and the adhesive layer is irradiated with light. A lens sheet is then pressed against the adhesive layer. The adhesive layer is cured to a degree of hardness with which the adhesion state between lens sheet and the adhesive layer no more changes. In this way, a laminate film of the lens sheet fixed to the transparent support via the adhesive layer is obtained. The laminate film is bonded to a polarizing plate on the viewer's side of a liquid crystal display element via the other adhesive layer.
