Embodiment Construction

[0032]A liquid crystal device according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. It should be understood, however, that the invention is not limited to the embodiment illustrated in the drawings.

[0033]FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing an essential portion of the liquid crystal device according to the present invention.

[0034]As shown in FIG. 1, the liquid crystal device 40 includes a pair of transparent substrates, i.e., a top substrate 1 and a bottom substrate 11, arranged opposite each other. The top substrate 1 comprises a top transparent substrate 2 formed from transparent glass, a top transparent electrode 3 formed from an ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) film deposited on the lower surface thereof, and a top alignment film 4 formed from a polyimide resin deposited over the top transparent electrode 3. Likewise, the bottom substrate 11 comprises a bottom transparent substrate 12 formed from transparent glass, a bottom transparent electrode 13 fo

Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal device wherein provisions are made to reduce the occurrence of light leakage and discrimination. The liquid crystal device comprises a pair of opposing substrates, a liquid crystal provided between the pair of opposing substrates, and spacers for maintaining a gap between the pair of opposing substrates, wherein the spacers include a mixture of coated spacers, each coated with an alignment material for giving liquid crystal molecules forming the liquid crystal a tendency to align in a particular direction around the surface of the spacer, and uncoated spacers not coated with an alignment material.
