Abstract

PURPOSE:To lower shrinkage of a polarizing plate and to lessen uneven display by imparting curvature to four corners of the polarizing plate. CONSTITUTION:The four ends of the polarizing plate 13 of a liquid crystal display device composed of a TFT substrate 11 and a color filter substrate 12 are rounded. As a result, the strain quantity acting at the four ends of the polarizing plate is dispersed if the polarizing plate 13 shrinks in a stretching axis direction 14. The uneven display defect by an optical characteristic change on the periphery of a display region is thus suppressed.

It is necessary to pull (3) uniformly diagonally outward. As a result, there is a problem that the manufacturing cost increases. Further, in JP-A-63-8704, distortion is reduced by making one surface of a polarizing film uneven, and in Ricoh JP-A-4-368913, a polarizing plate is adhered with an adhesive layer and solidified. It has been proposed to prevent distortion by using an adhesive layer and making the thickness of the adhesive layer not affected by the displacement due to the difference in expansion and contraction of the polarizing plate, but there was a very similar problem. It is an object of the present invention to provide a liquid crystal display device having a shape of a polarizing plate that can improve the display performance and reliability of the liquid crystal display device without increasing the manufacturing cost.

[Function] In a high temperature and high humidity environment, the polarizing plate tries to shrink in the direction of the stretching axis, but since it is fixed to the glass with an adhesive material, in the conventional polarizing plate structure with four right angles, the periphery and center of the polarizing plate The difference in the amount of distortion between the parts was large, and defective display unevenness occurred. In the present invention, by providing curvature at the four ends of the polarizing plate, the amount of strain applied to the four ends of the polarizing plate is dispersed when the polarizing plate tries to shrink in the stretching axis direction under high temperature and high humidity environment. The function of reducing the difference in strain amount between the central portion and the peripheral portion of the polarizing plate and reducing the display unevenness defect due to the change of the optical characteristics around the display area is exerted. Further, by making the curvature at the four ends of the polarizing plate larger in the stretching axial direction corner portion than in the other corner portion, the strain amount in the stretching axial direction, which has a large expansion and contraction, is more dispersed, so that the optical characteristics around the display region This has the effect of eliminating defective display unevenness due to changes.
