Abstract
A pillar-shaped spacer is disposed at the position between the boundary line of adjacent liquid crystal cells and an OLB terminal so as to face the end portion of the OLB terminal and so as to be interposed between a first large-size substrate and a second large-size substrate. Even when the respective liquid crystal cells are separated from one another along the boundary lines of the adjacent liquid crystal cells, exfoliation of the OLB terminals is prevented by the pillar-shaped spacers, so that extra cutting margins between the adjacent liquid crystal cells can be reduced and the manufacturing performance and the built-in number of the liquid crystal cells can be enhanced.
