Abstract:
A liquid crystal display apparatus having a drive substrate and a facing electrode substrate superimposed and joined to each other with spacer and seal material located therebetween, wherein said liquid crystal material is injected between said drive substrate and said facing electrode substrate, and further whereinsaid seal material includes an outer seal formed along an outer periphery of said drive substrate and said facing electrode substrate and an inner seal is formed inside said outer seal, and wherein the inner seal is located at least along a first edge of the effective picture element area and is substantially uniformly spaced apart at a first distance from the first edge of the effective picture element area and wherein side edges of the effective picture element area are substantially uniformly spaced apart at said first distance from corresponding side edges of the outer seal and an additional inner seal portion being located within a liquid crystal fill opening in the outer seal also being spaced apart from the effective picture element area substantially at said first distance.
