A liquid crystal display panel and a liquid crystal display device are provided. The liquid crystal display panel includes a substrate comprising a first substrate and a second substrate, a plurality of spacers comprising a plurality of first spacers and a plurality of second spacers, and at least one retaining wall disposed between the first spacer and the second spacer or between the second spacers.

The present disclosure relates to a display panel. The display panel may include a first substrate, a second substrate opposite the first substrate, and a frame supporting structure between the first substrate and the second substrate in a frame area of the display panel. The frame area of the display panel may surround a display area of the display panel. The frame supporting structure may include a first frame supporting portion on at least one part of a circumference of the display area, the first frame supporting portion comprises an elastic material, and an elastic recovery rate of the elastic material is above about 80%.

A transmittance-variable layer and a transmittance-variable device including the same are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a transmittance-variable device includes a polarization layer and a transmittance-variable layer disposed on the polarization layer, wherein the transmittance-variable layer includes a first base layer disposed on the polarization layer and a spacer fixed on a surface of the first base layer opposite to the polarization layer, and a second base layer facing the first base layer and spaced apart from the first base layer by the first spacer, wherein the first spacer maintains a gap between the first and second base layers, and a first light modulating material disposed in the gap.

The present application provides a liquid crystal display panel and a manufacturing thereof. The liquid crystal display panel includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a liquid crystal layer, and support posts. Each of the support posts includes a support post body and an expandable auxiliary pad. In a first state, the auxiliary pad is in a non-expanded state, and in a second state, the auxiliary pad is in an expanded state. This compensates for a height difference caused by the support post body which cannot be restored after being compressed by an external force and relieves a problem of appearance of Mura in the liquid crystal display panel.

A display apparatus includes an array substrate and an opposite substrate arranged opposite the array substrate. The array substrate includes a first substrate and a plurality of sub-pixels disposed on the first substrate and arranged in an array. The opposite substrate includes a second substrate and a plurality of first spacers arranged at a side of the second substrate proximate to the array substrate. An orthographic projection, on the array substrate, of a first spacer is in a region where a region between two adjacent rows of sub-pixels intersects with a region between two adjacent columns of sub-pixels.

A liquid crystal element (100) includes a plurality of unit electrodes (10), a liquid crystal layer (LQ), and a plurality of wall members (WL). Each of the unit electrodes (10) includes a first electrode (1) and a second electrode (2). A voltage is applied to the liquid crystal layer (LQ) from each of the unit electrodes (10). The wall members (WL) are arranged in the liquid crystal layer (LQ). The liquid crystal layer (LQ) has a waveform retardation (RT). Two or more of a plurality of peaks (P1) in the retardation (RT) correspond to positions of respective wall members (WL).

A liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate; a switching element including a control electrode disposed on the first substrate, one electrode disposed on the control electrode, and another electrode disposed on the control electrode and spaced apart from the one electrode; a contact hole extending to at least a part of the another electrode of the switching element; a pixel electrode including a contact portion disposed on the another electrode of the switching element and overlapping at least a part of the another electrode to which the contact hole extends, and a body portion electrically connected with the contact portion; and a column spacer disposed on the pixel electrode and at least partially overlapping the contact hole.

A pattern film, a transmittance variable device comprising the same, and a method for manufacturing a transmittance variable device are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a pattern film includes a first base layer, and a spacer pattern formed on the first base layer, wherein the spacer pattern comprises a partition wall spacer and a ball spacer, wherein the ball spacer is one of embedded in, partially embedded in, or in contact with the partition wall spacer, and wherein an area of the spacer pattern per unit area of the first base layer is 5% or greater to 17% or less.

A substrate on which a specific type spacer is formed, a substrate comprising an alignment film formed on the spacer, and an optical device using such a substrate are disclosed herein. By controlling the shape of the spacer formed on the substrate, even when the alignment film is formed on the top of the spacer and the orientation treatment is performed, the uniform orientation treatment can be performed without any influence by the step or the like of the spacer, whereby a substrate or the like capable of providing a device having excellent optical performance can be provided.

To improve the display quality of a display device, the display device includes a display section and a frame section surrounding a periphery of the display section. A substrate in the display device includes a conductor pattern constituting a circuit section and an insulating film serving as an organic film covering the conductor pattern. The insulating film extends to a peripheral edge of the substrate. A slit, which penetrates the insulating film in a thickness direction, is formed in a corner part of the insulating film. The slit is formed at a position not overlapping the circuit section.
