Abstract
A substrate for a liquid crystal device includes: an electrode film provided on a display area on the substrate; an alignment film which covers at least the display area and is subjected to an alignment process by rubbing; and a band-shaped projection provided in a peripheral area outside the display area so as at least to intersect the rubbing direction and extend along the display area, in which the height of the band-shaped projection on the substrate is higher than the height of the surface of the electrode film.

A substrate for a liquid crystal device comprising:
- a substrate base;
- an electrode film provided in a display area over the substrate base;
- an alignment film which covers at least the display area and is subjected to an alignment process by rubbing;
- and
- a band-shaped projection provided in a peripheral area to the outside of the display area, the band-shaped projection having a band shape that extends following an edge of the display area in a direction that intersects the rubbing direction, the band-shaped projection projecting away from the substrate base to a height that is higher than the height of the surface of the electrode film, wherein the alignment film covers at least a portion of the band-shaped projection.
A substrate for a liquid crystal device comprising:
- a substrate;
- an electrode film provided in a display area over the substrate;
- a light-shielding film surrounding the display area;
- an alignment film which covers at least the display area and is subjected to an alignment process by rubbing;
- and
- a band-shaped projection provided at a position outside the light-shielding film, the band-shaped projection having a band shape that extends following an edge of the display area in a direction that intersects the rubbing direction, the band-shaped projection projecting away from the substrate to a height that is higher than the height of the surface of the electrode film.
