Abstract:
A color liquid-crystal panel comprising a first substrate having pixel electrodes on which are formed a thin-film transistor as a switching element for each pixel, which is covered by a passivation film, and a color filter layer and a black matrix on the passivation film, which are covered by an overcoat layer, and where the first substrate and a second substrate having a transparent common electrode facing the first substrate are put together via a sealer, forming an inner space which is filled with a liquid-crystal material, wherein a frame-shaped black matrix covers a periphery of the first substrate, wherein in the area for a sealer in the periphery of the first substrate, the frame-shaped black matrix is formed on the first substrate over the passivation film, except the area from the substrate edge to at least a half of the width of the sealer.
