Display device

Abstract

The display device comprises a first and a second substrate (52, 53) between which a number of pixels arranged in rows and columns are situated, and said first substrate (52) being provided with a group of electrodes (56, 56', 56") and said second substrate (53) being provided with a group of electrodes (57, 57', 57") for driving the pixels. The display device is characterized in that electrodes of the group of electrodes (56, 56', 56") extend as far as an edge (a) of the first substrate (52), and that the edge (a) of the first substrate (52) and a corresponding edge (a') of a second substrate (53) are positioned relative to each other such that the corresponding edge (a') projects a distance d.sub.1 beyond the edge (b) of the first substrate (52). If electrodes of a further group of electrodes (57, 57', 57") extend as far as a further edge (b') of the second substrate (53), said further edge (b') of the second substrate (53) and a further, corresponding edge (b) of the first substrate (52) are preferably positioned relative to each other in such a manner that the further, corresponding edge (b) projects a further distance d.sub.2 beyond the further edge (b') of the second substrate (53). The distances d.sub.1 and/or d.sub.2 are at least 0.1 mm and preferably at least 0.2 mm.
