Liquid crystal device having sealant and spacers made from the same material

A liquid crystal device comprising:

• a pair of spaced apart members comprising a pair of substrates, and electrode patterns provided on said substrates respectively;
• a liquid crystal layer disposed between said pair of spaced apart members;
• a sealing member provided on the perimeter of said spaced apart members;
• and
• a resinous block spacer disposed between said pair of spaced apart members, having an areal contact with one of said pair of spaced apart members at a bottom surface of said resinous block spacer and adhering directly to said one of said pair of spaced apart members,
• wherein said sealing member and said resinous block spacer comprise the same material, and
• wherein said resinous block spacer overlaps with the electrode patterns provided both on said substrates.

A liquid crystal device comprising:

• a pair of spaced apart members comprising a pair of substrates, and electrode patterns provided on said substrates respectively, at least one of said pair of spaced apart members having an orientation control film provided over one of said electrode patterns provided on one of said substrates;
