Liquid crystal display device and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

To provide a liquid crystal display device in which a seal width at a cutting portion of substrates is small and defects caused at the time of cutting the substrates can be reduced. There is provided a liquid crystal display device including a liquid crystal display panel having: a first substrate; a second substrate; a sealing material through which the first substrate and the second substrate are stuck together; and a liquid crystal enclosed inside a liquid crystal enclosure area encircled by the first substrate, the second substrate, and the sealing material, wherein the sealing material includes a ring portion in a ring shape which configures the liquid crystal enclosure area and whose whole circumference is closed, and a first extension portion and a second extension portion, each of which is integrally connected to the ring portion and is arranged outside the ring portion, the first extension portion extends up to a cut-end portion of a first side of the liquid crystal display panel, the second extension portion extends up to a cut-end portion of a second side of the liquid crystal display panel, the second side being opposed to the first side, and in a state where the first substrate and the second substrate are stuck together, W≦W≦1.2Wis satisfied where Wrepresents a seal width of the first extension portion and a seal width of the second extension portion, and Wrepresents a seal width of the ring portion.
