Patent ID: 8520181

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device, comprising a TFT substrate, a facing substrate and liquid crystal sandwiched between said TFT substrate and said facing substrate, characterized in that first pixels for displaying a first color by means of a first color filter are aligned in a longitudinal direction, second pixels for displaying a second color by means of a second color filter are aligned in the longitudinal direction, and third pixels for displaying a third color by means of a third color filter are aligned in the longitudinal direction on said facing substrate, said first color filters extend in stripes in the longitudinal direction so as to cover said first pixels, said second color filters extend in stripes in the longitudinal direction so as to cover said second pixels, and said third color filters extend in stripes in the longitudinal direction so as to cover said third pixels, first spacers are formed between said first pixels by layering a number of color filters, including said first color filters, second spacers are formed of a number of color filters, including said second color filters, between said second pixels, said first color filters which are formed between said second pixels are circular in plan view, and said first color filters extend in the lateral direction in stripes between said second pixels and between said third pixels.
