Abstract
Disorder in the initial orientation (pretilt angle) and active orientation of liquid crystal molecules associated with higher resolution can be reduced to achieve high image quality displays. A layer having a drive element is bonded into an adhesive layer above color filters provided on the inner surface of a rear panel. The layer with the drive element, a drive electrode (pixel electrode), and a counter electrode are buried in the adhesive layer, so that the surface on the liquid crystal layer side is smooth. An orientation film is formed on the smooth surface to have a liquid crystal orientation control capability (orientation capability). A front panel includes a transparent substrate formed of glass or resin, with a smooth surface on the liquid crystal layer side. An orientation film is formed on the smooth surface of the front panel also to have liquid crystal orientation control capability (orientation capability).
