Abstract

A liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate and a second substrate which sandwiches a liquid crystal between itself and the first substrate, wherein the first substrate has thin film transistors and a wiring connection portion in which are formed terminals connected to the thin film transistors, a wiring substrate connected to the terminals is disposed in the wiring connection portion, the second substrate is a plastic substrate, and has an adhesive layer and an inorganic insulating layer formed on top of the adhesive layer, and the adhesive layer covers the wiring connection portion and one portion of the wiring substrate.

Claims (21)

1. A display device comprising:

a first substrate made of plastic;

thin film transistors disposed above the first substrate;

a display area disposeed above the thin film transistors; and

a wiring connection portion disposed above the first substrate wherein

the wiring connection portion has terminals which are connected to the thin film transistors,

a wiring substrate is disposed in the wiring connection portion and is connected to the terminals, and furthermore comprising:

a first adhesive material disposed around the display area, through between the display area and the terminals, a second substrate made of plastic and disposed opposite to the first substrate and

a second adhesive material disposed between the first and second substrate wherein the outside of the first adhesive material contacts with the second adhesive material.
