A display panel includes a first substrate, a second substrate and a display medium. At least one spacer is formed on the top surface of the first substrate and is disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. An alignment film is formed on the first substrate and covers the spacer.
A display panel includes a first substrate, a second substrate and a display medium. At least one spacer is formed on the top surface of the first substrate and is disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. An alignment film is formed on the first substrate and covers the spacer. The spacer has a first width and a second width in a direction perpendicular to a normal vector of the first substrate. The location of the second width is nearer to the first substrate than that of the first width. The second width is smaller than the first width. The alignment film has a first thickness at the location of the spacer having the first width and has a second thickness at the location of the spacer having the second width. The second thickness is greater than the first thickness.
