Patent number: 8477267Abstract: A conventional liquid crystal display comprises a number of components, so that a manufacturing cost cannot be reduced. Furthermore, a large-area substrate has problems in shipping. According to this invention, a liquid-crystal panel is prepared by forming individual optically functional films, a TFT device and a light-emitting device on a long thin film and then laminating the film by a transfer process. A base film to be a substrate in a liquid-crystal panel preferably has a thickness of 10 ?m to 200 ?m, a curvature radius of 40 mm or less as a measure of flexibility and a coefficient of thermal expansion of 50 ppm/° C. or less. Furthermore, it more preferably gives a variation of ±5% or less in mechanical and optical properties to a thermal history at 200° C.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2010Date of Patent: July 2, 2013Assignees: Kuraray Co., Ltd., Konica Minolta Holdings, Inc., JSR Corporation, Sumitomo Chemical Company Limited, Sumitomo Bakelite Co., Ltd., Dainippon Ink and Chemicals, Inc., Dai Nippon Printing Co., Ltd., Toppan Printing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Katsuya Fujisawa, Tokuo Ikari, Kazuo Genda, Atsushi Kumano, Noboru Oshima, Yoshiki Matsuoka, Toshimasa Eguchi, Shigenori Yamaoka, Yoshiyuki Ono, Hisatomo Yonehara, Tatsumi Takahashi, Motoyuki Suzuki, Akimitsu Tsukuda, Norimasa Sekine, Kazushige Takechi, Ken Sumiyoshi, Ichiro Fujieda, Yasuo Tsuruoka
