Abstract
In a liquid crystal panel 1 provided with first and second substrates 1 and 3 bonded by a sealant 3, alignment layers 13 and 23 for covering electrodes 6A and 7A, respectively, are formed up to the regions overlapping the regions for forming up to 3. Accordingly, since there is no space between the alignment 13 or 23 and the sealant 3, a low twist domain does not occur in a liquid crystal 40. Therefore, the vicinity of the inner periphery of the sealant can also be effectively used as the region for displaying images.
