Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a pair of rectangular shaped substrates with liquid crystal material therebetween; a plurality of first spacers formed on one of the pair of substrates; a second spacer formed on the one of the pair of substrates, and arranged to surround the plurality of first spacers in plane view; a seal material formed between the pair of substrates, and arranged to surround the second spacer in plane view, the seal material being continuously formed along each side of all sides of the rectangular shaped substrates so that the seal material along one side connects with the seal material along an adjacent side; wherein the first spacers and the second spacer are made of resin; wherein a distance from the one of the pair of substrates to a top surface of the first spacers is smaller than a distance from the one of the pair of substrates to a top surface of the second spacer; and wherein another of the pair of substrates has a gap adjusting layer so as to compensate for a gap resulting from a difference in the distance between the first spacers and the second spacer with respect to the one of the pair of substrates.
