A liquid crystal panel includes a pair of substrates, a seal part between the pair of substrates and in a non-display region to surround and seal the liquid crystal layer, a planarizing film and a second interlayer insulating film being insulating films on the array substrate across a display region and the non-display region, an alignment film on the array substrate closer to the liquid crystal layer than the planarizing film and the second interlayer insulating film are, the alignment film being disposed across the display region and the non-display region, and a defining part formed of the planarizing film and the second interlayer insulating film, which are insulating films, the defining part being disposed at a position overlapping with the seal part in the non-display region, to define an alignment film non-disposed region where the alignment film is not disposed.

Display panel

An array board includes a glass substrate including a display area and a non-display area, an organic insulation film disposed over a range of the display area and the non-display area, an array board side alignment film disposed on the organic insulation film, a film forming area restricting portion disposed in the non-display area and recessed in a part of the surface of the organic insulation film, and an alignment film material storing portion disposed closer to the display area than the film forming area restricting portion in the non-display area and recessed in a part of the organic insulation film. An angle formed by at least a part of a surface of the alignment film material storing portion and a normal line of the glass substrate is greater than an angle formed by a side surface of the film forming area restricting portion and the normal line.
