Abstract
At a motherboard for an image device, which is used for manufacturing an image device such as a liquid crystal device, an organic electroluminescence device, a mirror device, and an image-capturing device, a mark for alignment is provided on an outer side of a pixel area in which a plurality of pixels are arranged. In the photo-lithography process, a light exposure mask is arranged by using the mark as a reference position. For the mark, a recessed portion provided in a motherboard main body is filled with a filling film. The recessed portion includes a first groove extending along a first direction and a second groove extending along a second direction intersecting with the first direction, the second groove not intersecting with the first groove in plan view.
