Patent number: 8698987Abstract: A liquid crystal display panel includes an active matrix substrate, a counter substrate, a liquid crystal layer, and a sealant. The counter electrode is opposed to the active matrix substrate. The liquid crystal layer is provided between the active matrix substrate and the counter substrate. The sealant, which surrounds the liquid crystal layer between the active matrix substrate and the counter substrate, joins the active matrix substrate and the counter substrate and seals the liquid crystal layer. A portion of the surface on the liquid crystal layer side of the active matrix substrate which is located at the periphery of the liquid crystal display panel is flat.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2012Date of Patent: April 15, 2014Assignee: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Noriaki Onishi, Yohsuke Fujikawa, Hiroaki Tomioka, Hiroaki Kojima, Yasunobu Tagusa
