[Prior Art] One of the factors governing the display performance of a liquid crystal display device is the uniformity of the distance between the transparent substrates (the thickness of each liquid crystal layer). The non-uniform layer thickness causes non-uniform threshold characteristics and causes defects such as contrast unevenness and color unevenness. As a technique for making the thicknesses of the liquid crystal layers uniform, a method in which a gap material having a uniform particle size distribution is sprayed on a transparent substrate before overlapping and then the liquid crystal layers are overlapped has been considered and put to practical use.
