Abstract

A liquid crystal display device, includes: a liquid crystal display panel having a first substrate and a second substrate with a display area and a non-display area; a backlight that irradiates the liquid crystal display panel with light; an adhesive layer that adheres the liquid crystal display panel to the backlight; a first polarizing plate stuck onto the first substrate; and a second polarizing plate stuck onto the second substrate, in which an outer edge of the second polarizing plate is located outside an outer edge of the second substrate, a light impermeable film and an alignment mark part are formed in the non-display area of the first substrate, and the light impermeable film and the alignment mark part are different in infrared transmittance or infrared reflectance.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:
a liquid crystal display panel having a first substrate and a second substrate with a display area and a non-display area;
a backlight that irradiates the liquid crystal display panel with light;
an adhesive layer that adheres the liquid crystal display panel to the backlight;
a first polarizing plate stuck onto the first substrate; and
a second polarizing plate stuck onto the second substrate, wherein
an outer edge of the second polarizing plate is located outside an outer edge of the second substrate,
the second polarizing plate has a protruding portion extending from the outer edge of the second substrate to the outer edge of the second polarizing plate, the protruding portion of the second polarizing plate being fixed to the backlight with the adhesive layer,
a light impermeable film and an alignment mark part are formed in the non-display area of the first substrate and are covered with the first polarizing plate, and
the light impermeable film and the alignment mark part are different in infrared transmittance or infrared reflectance.

2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein
a color filter having a colored film is disposed in the display area of the first substrate, and
the colored film is formed in the alignment mark part.

3. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein
a second alignment mark part different in the infrared transmittance or infrared reflectance from the alignment mark part is formed inside the alignment mark part in a planar view.

4. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:
a liquid crystal display panel having a first substrate and a second substrate with a display area and a non-display area;
a backlight;
an adhesive layer that adheres the liquid crystal display panel to the backlight;
an opaque film formed in the non-display area of the first substrate;
an upper polarizing plate stuck onto the first substrate; and
a lower polarizing plate stuck onto the second substrate, wherein
an outer edge of the lower polarizing plate is located outside an outer edge of the second substrate,
the lower polarizing plate has a protruding portion extending from the outer edge of the second substrate to the outer edge of the lower polarizing plate, the protruding portion of the lower polarizing plate being fixed to the backlight with the adhesive layer,
at least a part of the adhesive layer is arranged to overlap with an area outside of the outer edge of the second substrate in a planar view, and
an opening is formed in the opaque film and overlapped with the upper polarizing plate.

5. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 4 , wherein
a colored film different in an infrared transmittance or infrared reflectance from the opaque film is formed within the opening.

6. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 4 , wherein the opening is an alignment mark part.

7. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 5 , wherein a color filter having a colored film is formed in the display area, and
the colored film formed within the opening is made of the same material as that of the colored film of the color filter.
