The light control cell is a device that fills a liquid crystal between a first substrate and a second substrate, and uses a rotation principle of the liquid crystal that appears when a voltage is applied to the first substrate and the second substrate. In particular, the polarization direction is controlled by the light control cell formed in this structure. The light control cell having such characteristics can be used as a switching panel by using a liquid crystal lens having a refractive index that varies depending on the direction of light.

The material of the substrate used in the conventional process is mainly glass, a problem occurs in the production of the film substrate proposed to reduce the weight and volume of the glass. In the conventional process, a groove is formed in a part of the glass substrate having high hardness, and the electrode part is exposed by applying a physical force such as pressure, but in the case of the film, the electrode part cannot be easily exposed due to the unique ductility. Since not only the substrate but also the electrode portion, and moreover, the second film substrate can be cut, the defective rate increases in the manufacturing process.
The present invention is intended to solve the problems of difficulty in the generation of electrode portions located on the first substrate and the second substrate, inefficiency in space utilization, and defects in the cutting process during the generation of the electrode portions of the light control cell using the film. .

And a first insulating portion formed around the first recessed portion and a second insulating portion formed around the second recessed portion.
The first and second recesses may be formed in plural.
In addition, a third recess is formed on the first substrate on the opposite side of the first recess, and a fourth recess is formed on the second substrate on the opposite side of the second recess.

And a first insulating portion formed around the first convex portion and a second insulating portion formed around the second convex portion.
In addition, each of the first and second convex portions may be formed in plural.
A third convex portion is formed on an opposite side of the first convex portion on the first substrate, and a fourth convex portion is formed on an opposite side of the second convex portion on the second substrate.
On the other hand, this invention is a liquid crystal panel; A lenticular lens; Provided is an image display device including the light control cell of any one of claims 1 to 10.
The optical control cell and the image display device including the same according to the present invention perform a cutting process before the bonding process of the first substrate and the second substrate to prevent damage to the substrate and the electrode portion, and to cut each substrate so as not to overlap each other. Therefore, the connection of the voltage line can be made easier, and the electrode part of the light control cell can be prevented from protruding to one side, thereby increasing the space efficiency of the image display device.
