Liquid crystal display device
View Patent ↗A liquid crystal display device sandwiching liquid crystal between a TFT substrate having a rectangular plane and an opposing substrate having a rectangular plane, wherein a long side of the TFT substrate is longer than a long side of the opposing substrate, the long side of the opposing substrate is formed with a chamfer, and a light shielding film made of metal is formed on the TFT substrate around a position corresponding to the center of the long side of the opposing substrate. By using the light shielding film, the chipping condition of the opposing substrate near the chamfer can be accurately and rapidly evaluated.
1. A liquid crystal display device sandwiching liquid crystal between a first substrate having a rectangular plane with a TFT and a pixel electrode formed thereon in a matrix form and a second substrate having a rectangular plane with a color filter formed thereon,
wherein a long side of the first substrate is longer than a long side of the second substrate,
the long side of the first substrate or the second substrate is chamfered, and
the first substrate has a light shielding region made of metal, the light shielding region is disposed in the place overlapping with the chamfered area of the first substrate or the second substrate, and
a size of the light shielding region is between 1.3 mm and 2.6 mm along the long side of the first substrate or the second substrate and between 0.1 mm and 0.2 mm along a short side direction of the first substrate or the second substrate.
2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein there is no chip on a top surface of the chamfered area overlapping with the light shielding region.
3. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the light shielding region is covered by sealing material bonding the first substrate to the second substrate.
