Abstract

A liquid crystal display panel including a first substrate and a second substrate is provided. The first substrate is provided at plural positions with a first scale pattern made of the same material as a scanning line, and extending in a row direction or a column direction, and a second scale pattern made of the same material as a signal line at plural positions, and extending in the row direction or the column direction. The second substrate is provided with a third scale pattern extending in the row direction and a fourth scale pattern extending in the column direction, respectively, at positions which are opposite to the first and second scale patterns.

Claims (12)

1. A liquid crystal display panel comprising:

a first substrate and a second substrate which are arranged so as to be opposite to each other, with a liquid crystal layer being interposed therebetween;

the first substrate including a plurality of scanning lines and a plurality of signal lines which are formed so as to intersect each other in a state where the scanning lines and the signal lines are insulated from each other, and sub-pixels defined by the scanning lines and the signal lines,

the second substrate including a light shielding layer formed at a position which is opposite to the scanning line and the signal line in a plan view, and a color filter layer formed for each sub-pixel which is defined by the scanning line and the signal line, and

the first substrate including a transparent electrode,

wherein the first substrate is provided with a first scale pattern made of the same material as the scanning line, and extending in a row direction or a column direction and a second scale pattern made of the same material as the signal line, and extending in the row direction or the column direction, at plural positions, and

the second substrate is provided with a third scale pattern extending in the row direction and a fourth scale pattern extending in the column direction, respectively, at positions which are opposite to the first and second scale patterns.

2. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the third scale pattern and the fourth scale pattern are made of the same material as the color filter layer.

3. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the light shielding layer is formed by overlapping end portions of the adjacent color filter layers.

4. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the transparent electrode formed for each sub-pixel which is defined by the scanning line and the signal line is a pixel electrode, and the first substrate further includes a common electrode which is electrically insulated from the pixel electrode.

5. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the transparent electrode is formed in one layer on each of the first substrate and the second substrate.

6. An electronic apparatus comprising the liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 .
