Claim:
1. A display device comprising: a first subpixel electrode; a first roof layer; a first liquid crystal layer, which is disposed between the first subpixel electrode and the first roof layer; a first support member, which overlaps a first end portion of the first roof layer in a first direction and overlaps the first liquid crystal layer in a second direction; a second subpixel electrode, which immediately neighbors the first subpixel electrode without any subpixel electrode being disposed between the first subpixel electrode and the second subpixel electrode; a second roof layer; a second liquid crystal layer, which is disposed between the second subpixel electrode and the second roof layer; a second support member, which overlaps a first end portion of the second roof layer in the first direction and overlaps the second liquid crystal layer in the second direction; and a contact member, wherein a first portion of the contact member is positioned between the first support member and the second support member in the second direction, is positioned between the first liquid crystal layer and the second liquid crystal layer in the second direction, and directly contacts and confines the first liquid crystal layer, wherein the first roof layer is positioned between the first support member and a second portion of the contact member in the first direction, wherein a material of the first portion of the contact member is identical to a material of the second portion of the contact member, and wherein the first end portion of the first roof layer and the first end portion of the second roof layer are disposed between a second end portion of the first roof layer and a second end portion of the second roof layer.
