  • Patent number: 8643819
    Abstract: In a liquid crystal display device in which liquid crystal is sealed by a one drop fill method, the gap between a TFT substrate and a counter substrate is defined by a columnar spacer in a display region, and the gap between them is defined by a columnar spacer also in a seal portion. In the display region, one layer of a color filter is formed below the columnar spacer. In the seal portion, two layers of island-shaped color filters are formed. With this configuration, the gap between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate can be maintained equal between the display region and the seal portion. Even when the process for forming the columnar spacer varies, it is possible to eliminate a change in difference between the gap between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate in the display region and the gap in the seal portion.

  • Patent number: 8059248
    Abstract: The TFT substrate includes a conductive region electrically conducted to the transparent conductive film and a terminal region, on a first side not covered with the counter substrate. The terminal region includes a ground terminal connected to the conductive region and an adjacent terminal which is adjacent to the ground terminal and supplies signals or power source to the peripheral circuit. The adjacent terminal is connected to the peripheral circuit through a first wiring installed along a third side of the TFT substrate toward a second side facing the first side. The first wiring is extended to a middle point of the third side and then connected to the peripheral circuit.
