Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a pair of substrates bonded together; an interlayer film formed on an entire surface except for a recessed portion of one of the pair of substrates; a sealing member formed outside of the recessed portion, the sealing member being formed between the substrates around a display region with a space maintained from the display region, and the sealing member being formed between the interlayer film and the other of the pair of substrates; a liquid crystal layer disposed between the pair of substrates; and a cell thick area formed between the display region and the sealing member, wherein a cell gap in the cell thick area is defined by the recessed portion of the interlayer film and one of the pair of substrates, wherein the cell gap in the cell thick area is larger than the cell gap between the pair of substrates in the display region, and wherein the cell thick area is formed so as to have a larger single substantially uniform width on a side of a longer side of the sealing member than a single substantially uniform width on a side of a shorter side of the sealing member.
