Patent ID: 8071403

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device including a liquid crystal panel having a liquid crystal layer between a pair of glass substrates and a lighting device that provides illumination light to said liquid crystal panel, wherein at least one of said pair of glass substrates having a color filter in which a plurality of color portions are formed in a predetermined arrangement, comprising a color defect compensation process for compensating for a color defect if such a color defect is present, said color defect compensation process includes: specifying a compensation area in at least one of said pair of glass substrates, the compensation area that overlaps a shadow of color defect occurrence area that is a possible cause of said color defect, the shadow being projected on the one of said pair of glass substrates; doping metal ions corresponding to a color of said color portion that includes said color defect occurrence area in said compensation area of said glass substrate, said compensation area being specified; and forming a colored portion having a same color as said color portion that includes said color defect occurrence area in said compensation area by applying laser having a femtosecond-order or shorter pulse width to said metal ions that are doped.
