Abstract
A liquid crystal display device comprising a flexible substrate of, for example, plastic film. At least one edge of a pair of polarizers (9, 10), which are arranged on the liquid crystal display is extended to the region of an electrode terminal (7) which is formed on a substrate (2). By increasing the mechanical strength of the electrode terminal (7) of the liquid crystal display, terminal electrode cracks caused by mechanical stress that increase during the manufacturing process and incorporation into electronic calculators can be decreased and further, a liquid crystal display with a decreased number of disconnections and high reliability can be realized.
