Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a first substrate having a plurality of scanning signal lines extending in the X direction and parallel to one another in the Y direction and a plurality of image signal lines extending in the Y direction and parallel to one another in the X direction formed thereover; a second substrate opposed to the first substrate through a liquid crystal layer; a display area surrounded by the scanning signal lines and the image signal lines in which pixels are arranged in a matrix, wherein the first substrate and the second substrate are fixed by means of a seal material formed along the marginal part of the second substrate, the liquid crystal layer is sealed between the first substrate and the second substrate, the first substrate is larger in size than the second substrate, and a connection terminal is formed in an exposed area not opposed to the second substrate of the first substrate; an alignment layer stopper which is formed external to the display area and along at least two different sides of the display area and prevents an alignment layer before curing from flowing into the area of the seal material when the alignment layer is formed, and wherein the alignment layer stopper is made of a thin film material having hydrophobic nature for a liquid alignment layer material and includes a second conductive layer SP formed above the first substrate and a first conducive layer SH arranged below the second conductive layer SP through an insulating film and arranged in such a manner that its marginal parts in the longitudinal direction when viewed in a plane direction from the second conductive layer SP are exposed from the marginal parts in the longitudinal direction of the second conductive layer SP, and the first conductive layer SH is formed between signal lines arranged in side parts of the display area and the second conductive layer SP through an insulating film layer.
