Abstract

A liquid crystal panel and a cross-shaped spacer structure. The liquid crystal panel includes an array substrate, a color filter substrate, and a cross-shaped spacer structures sandwiched between the array substrate and the color filter substrate. The cross-shaped spacer structures includes strip-like first spacers disposed on the upper surface of the array substrate, and strip-like second spacers disposed on the lower surface of the color filter substrate. The end surfaces of each three of the strip-like first spacers and the end surface of each one of the strip-like second spacers are abutted against each other in a cross manner. Thus, when the liquid crystal panel is impacted by external force, the strip-like first spacers and the strip-like second spacers can keep a tight abutment therebetween, so as to ensure the display quality of the liquid crystal panel.
