Abstract
The display area of a liquid crystal display cell is increased by placing conductive epoxy within the boundary which seals the liquid crystal to connect the top glass plate with the bottom glass plate, in contrast with the conventional method of making the electrical connection outside the display area. The conductive epoxy is dispensed in areas not occupied by the liquid crystal patterns. The conductive epoxy can be in the form of particles of spheres or rods serving as spacers for maintaining the gap dimension between the two glass plates. The conductive epoxy can also be integrated with the boundary sealing epoxy or fill a notch cut in the boundary sealing epoxy.
