Abstract:
1. A substrate for a liquid crystal display, comprising: a base substrate sandwiching a liquid crystal in combination with an opposite substrate provided opposite thereto; a pillar spacer formed on the base substrate for maintaining a cell gap between the base substrate and the opposite substrate; a first region in a display area where the pillar spacer is compressed in a first amount of compressive displacement when a predetermined pressure is applied to the opposite substrate in a direction perpendicular to a surface of the base substrate; and a second region in a display area where the pillar spacer is compressed in a second amount of compressive displacement greater than the first amount of compressive displacement when the predetermined pressure is applied to the opposite substrate, wherein the second region is provided outside the first region, and the areal density of the pillar spacer in the second region is lower than the areal density of the pillar spacer in the first region.
