Abstract:
1. A method for manufacturing an image display device, comprising the steps of: fixing opposite ends of a plate spacer to a first substrate while disposing the plate spacer on a surface of the first substrate such that a length of the plate spacer is parallel to the surface of the first substrate and such that the plate spacer between the fixed opposite ends is in contact with the surface of the first substrate; and tightly bonding the first substrate and a second substrate together through the plate spacer while disposing the second substrate to face the first substrate fixed to the plate spacer so that the spacer is arranged in between the first and second substrates, wherein the method further comprises the step of forming a space between the plate spacer and the surface of the first substrate so that the plate spacer between the fixed opposite ends previously in contact with the surface of the first substrate is no longer in contact with the surface of the first substrate after the process of fixing the plate spacer to the first substrate and before the process of bonding the first substrate and the second substrate together to form an image display device.
