Liquid crystal display device
View Patent ↗A liquid crystal display device includes a TFT substrate having a display region where pixels each having a TFT and a pixel electrode are formed in a matrix, a counter substrate having a display region where color filters of three colors are formed in a matrix, the TFT substrate and the counter substrate being bonded together with a sealing material in a seal portion at a periphery, and liquid crystal sealed between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate by the seal material. In the display region, a first insulation film, a first alignment film, a first columnar spacer, an overcoat film, a first color filter among the color filters of three colors are stacked in this order between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate.
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising:
a TFT substrate having a display region where pixels each having a TFT and a pixel electrode are formed in a matrix;
a counter substrate having a display region where color filters of three colors are formed in a matrix;
the TFT substrate and the counter substrate being bonded together with a sealing material in a seal portion at a periphery; and
liquid crystal sealed between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate by the seal material;
wherein in the display region, a first insulation film, a first alignment film, a first columnar spacer, an overcoat film, a first color filter among the color filters of three colors, and a first black matrix are stacked in this order between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate;
wherein in the seal portion having the sealing material therein, the first insulation film, a second columnar spacer, the overcoat film, a second color filter among the color filters of three colors, and a second black matrix are stacked in this order between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate; and
wherein in the seal portion, an alignment film is not arranged between the first insulation film and the second columnar spacer.
2. The liquid crystal display device comprising according to claim 1 ,
wherein each of the first color filter and the second color filter is of island shape;
wherein in the display region and in a plan view, the first insulation film, the first alignment film, the first columnar spacer, the overcoat film, the first color filter of island shape, and the first black matrix overlap each other; and
wherein in the seal portion and in plan view, the first insulation film, the second columnar spacer, the overcoat film, the second color filter of island shape, and the second black matrix overlap each other.
3. The liquid crystal display device comprising according to claim 2 , wherein the first color filter and the second color filter are the same color.
4. The liquid crystal display device comprising according to claim 2 , wherein in the display region, a TFT, the first insulation film, the first alignment film, the first columnar spacer, the overcoat film, the first color filter of island shape, and the first black matrix are stacked in this order between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate, the TFT having a source electrode, a drain electrode, a gate insulation film, and a gate electrode; and
wherein in the display region and in plan view, the TFT, the first insulation film, the first alignment film, the first columnar spacer, the overcoat film, the first color filter of island shape, and the first black matrix overlap each other.
