Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a first substrate having a first planar electrode and a second linear electrode, the first electrode and the second electrode being formed by way of an insulation film; a second substrate opposed to the first substrate; liquid crystals put between the first substrate and the second substrate; a rectangular display area formed with a plurality of pixels; and a sealing material formed outside the display area, the sealing material for securing the first substrate and the second substrate to each other and sealing the liquid crystals; a driving circuit disposed to the first substrate, the driving circuit outputting a driving signal for the liquid crystals to the first electrode and the second electrode by way of interconnections formed of an electroconductive film; wherein: the first substrate and/or the second substrate having at least one sealing hole, the sealing hole passing through thin film layers formed over the surface of the first substrate and/or the second substrate at the side where the liquid crystals are located such that the base material of the substrate is exposed, the sealing holes are formed in a region on a side opposite to the side where the driving circuit is disposed, wherein the interconnections formed of the electroconductive film are not formed over the region, the sealing material is formed in the region including the sealing holes, and a base material of at least one of the first substrate and the second substrate is secured directly to the sealing material by way of the sealing hole, and the first substrate and the second substrate have at least two sealing holes at positions where the first substrate overlaps the second substrate.
