US Patent 7557895 Liquid crystal display device and manufacturing method thereof

A method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device includes preparing a pair of substrates that have a structure P1 having a height Hp1 and a structure P2 having a height Hp2, the heights Hp1 and Hp2 satisfying a relationship of 0.3 (μm) ≦Hp1−Hp2≦1.0 (μm); controlling a dropping amount V of liquid crystal so that a cell gap G1 that is determined by the dropping amount V of liquid crystal, the height Hp1 and the height Hp2 satisfying a relationship of Hp2<G1<Hp1; dropping the controlled dropping amount V of liquid crystal on one of the pair of substrates; and attaching the pair of substrates in a vacuum followed by returning to an atmospheric pressure to fill in the liquid crystal between the pair of substrates.
