Abstract:
Provided is a liquid crystal display that achieves both reliability and a narrowed-down frame at a relatively high level. In a liquid crystal display according to an aspect of the present invention, alignment films are disposed on a surface of an array substrate and a surface of a counter substrate. The alignment films are each disposed in a display region and each have an overlap with part of the inside of a sealant. The surfaces of the substrates in the overlaps each have an uneven surface. All over an outer edge portion of the sealant, a portion is disposed in which the sealant is joined to the surfaces of the individual substrates without the alignment films interposed therebetween.

Claim (Index 15):
A method for manufacturing the liquid crystal display according to  claim 1 , the method comprising:\n applying and forming a flattening film that covers the switching element onto the surface of the array substrate; patterning the flattening film to simultaneously form, onto the array substrate, a contact hole disposed on the flattening film in the display region and the projection pattern or the recess pattern disposed in the overlap; applying and forming a photosensitive resin film onto the surface of the counter substrate; and patterning the photosensitive resin film to simultaneously form, onto the counter substrate, a plurality of columnar spacers disposed in the display region and the projection pattern or the recess pattern disposed in the overlap.
