Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a pair of substrates each including a display region and a peripheral region around the display region; a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the substrates; a sealing member provided between the peripheral regions of the pair of substrates, the sealing member sealing the liquid crystal layer; alignment films formed of alignment film materials, a first alignment film provided between a surface of a first of the pair of substrates and the liquid crystal layer, and a second alignment film provided between a surface of a second of the pair of substrates and the liquid crystal layer; and print position control patterns provided between the sealing member and the display region, the print position control patterns each being configured to repel the alignment film materials of the alignment films, wherein each print position control pattern comprises a low energy surface material, the low energy surface material configured to cause a liquid thereon to be repelled.
