  • Publication number: 20050035709
    Abstract: In an organic electroluminescent display device having light emitting layers which are independently controlled and emit light formed in respective pixel regions on a principal surface of a substrate and emitting light from each of the light emitting layer through the substrate, the present invention arranges a light shielding member on an end wall face of the substrate and prevents the light from leaking from the end wall face thereof.

  • Publication number: 20020093619
    Abstract: There is provided a liquid crystal display device in which low voltage driving and low power consumption are realized. In the liquid crystal display device, a liquid crystal compound layer LC is interposed between a thin film transistor substrate SUB1 and a color filter substrate SUB2. The dielectric an isotropy &Dgr;&egr; of the liquid crystal compound layer LC is made 15 or less, the elastic constant K of the liquid crystal compound layer LC is made 8 pN or less, and the maximum value of the liquid crystal driving voltage applied across a pixel electrode IT01 and a common electrode IT02 is made 3 V or less.

  • Publication number: 20020030654
    Abstract: Unwanted creation of an after-image in display images is significantly suppressing. A liquid crystal compound having either an ester structure or a heterocyclic structure with more than one oxygen atom is added to liquid crystal material at a mixture ratio of more than ten percent (10%).

  • Patent number: 6275279
    Abstract: In a liquid crystal display panel, the shrinkage of an end-scaling material for sticking a pair of substrates together is prevented or relaxed to restrain peeling of the end-sealing material from the substrates, thereby preventing any leakage of a liquid crystal and penetration of contaminants. A liquid crystal display device is assembled by bonding together a pair of substrates, which are opposed to each other across a predetermined gap and at least one of which has an electrode group formed over a surface opposed to the other substrate, with a sealing material along their peripheries excluding a liquid crystal filling port, and then sealing the liquid crystal filling port with an end-sealing material after the filling of the liquid crystal and hermetically sealing the liquid crystal in the gap between both substrates. In the liquid crystal display device, a resin which constitutes the end-sealing material contains particulates of average particle size of 0.1 &mgr;m to 3.
