Abstract
A liquid crystal panel including a pair of substrates facing each other with a space in between and a liquid crystal layer disposed in the space between the pair of substrates. Further, the liquid crystal panel includes a plurality of pairs of pillar structures. Each pair of pillar structures is arranged on opposing faces of the pair of substrates, respectively, to face each other along a normal to the opposing faces. With the benefit of such pillar configuration, degradation of the liquid crystal panel due to an external pressure may be decreased.
