In this substrate bonding structure 10, an anisotropic conductive adhesive 15 is attached to one of the first and second substrates 11 and 12 by a screen printing method or the like, and the other is superposed and heated and pressed. Is produced by curing the anisotropic conductive adhesive 15. At this time, each first electrode terminal 13 of the first substrate 11 and the corresponding second electrode terminal 14 of the second substrate 12 are connected by the conductive particles 16 contained in the anisotropic conductive adhesive 15. When the anisotropic conductive adhesive 15 is attached by the screen printing method, the insulating partition 1
It is preferable to attach the anisotropic conductive adhesive 15 to the second substrate 12 provided with 7. When the squeegee (a spatula used to push out the anisotropic conductive adhesive 15 from between the pores of the screen) at the time of screen printing prints the anisotropic conductive adhesive 15 while pressing it in an oblique direction, it is anisotropic by the insulating partition wall 17. The conductive particles 16 contained in the conductive conductive adhesive 15 tend to remain on the front side without exceeding the insulating partition wall 17, and those exceeding the insulating partition wall 17 are dropped to the opposite side, so that the conductive particles 16 This is because the selective placement of can be effectively performed.

According to the substrate bonding structure 10 having the above structure, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the first and second electrode ends 13, 14 are formed.
When the two substrates are thermocompression-bonded by pressing or the like, the space between them is separated by the insulating partition 17 to prevent the conductive particles 16 contained in the anisotropic conductive adhesive 15 from being arranged between the adjacent electrode terminals. However, the conductive particles 16 in the vicinity of the insulating partition 17 are also stably arranged on the first and second electrode terminals 13 and 14, and the distance between adjacent electrode terminals is extremely narrow, which is 1 to 5 times the particle size of the conductive particles 16. Despite the pitch, the conductive particles 16 can be prevented from short-circuiting between the adjacent electrode terminals, and the occurrence of leak failure can be significantly improved. Anisotropic conductive adhesive 1 in which the corresponding second electrode terminal 14 contains conductive particles 16
Since they are provided so as to face each other through 5, it is possible to surely and satisfactorily conduct electricity between them.

Further, since both wall surfaces 18, 18 of the insulating partition 17 are formed in a tapered shape inclined outward, the conductive particles 16 are formed along the tapered surface of the insulating partition 17.
Flows smoothly toward the first and second electrode terminals 13 and 14, so that the conductive particles 16 are less likely to be present on the insulating partition 17 as compared with the case where the upper portion of the wall surface 18 has a right-angled cross section. Accordingly, since the probability that the conductive particles 16 exist between the adjacent electrode terminals is reduced, the effect of preventing the leak failure is enhanced, and the inter-substrate contact due to the existence of the conductive particles 16 on the insulating partition wall 17 is increased. The occurrence of unevenness in the gap can also be suppressed.

Comparing Examples 1 to 6 in which the widths of the insulating barrier ribs are the same as those of Example 7 in which the insulating barrier ribs are not formed, it can be seen that leakage occurs when the height of the insulating barrier ribs becomes low. It is considered that this is because when the height of the insulating partition wall is low, the conductive particles easily get over it and are connected to each other to short-circuit the first and second electrode terminals. It is considered that whether or not the conductive particles pass over the insulating partition depends on the relationship between the particle size of the conductive particles and the height of the insulating partition. The height of the insulating partition is the particle size of the conductive particles. The leakage did not occur in Example 5 with 3%, whereas the leakage occurred in Example 6 in which the height of the insulating partition was 2.7% of the particle diameter of the conductive particles. It is presumed that the occurrence of leak can be suppressed if the above is about 5% or more of the particle diameter of the conductive particles.

On the other hand, it can be seen that as the height of the insulating partition increases, display unevenness of the liquid crystal display is likely to occur. this is,
It is considered that this is because when the insulating partition wall is high, it has a great influence on the gap between the substrates. In Example 2, in which the height of the insulating partition was 20.0% of the particle diameter of the conductive particles, almost no display unevenness occurred, whereas the height of the insulating partition was 26.7% of the particle diameter of the conductive particles. Since the display unevenness occurs in Example 1, it is considered that the display unevenness can be suppressed if the height of the insulating partition is 20% or less of the particle diameter of the conductive particles.

Examples 3 and 8 in which the heights of the insulating barriers are the same,
Also, comparing Examples 4 and 9 to 11, it can be seen that the display unevenness of the liquid crystal display is likely to occur when the width of the insulating partition wall is wide. It is considered that this is because if the width of the insulating partition wall is large, the influence on the inter-substrate gap becomes large. In Examples 3 and 10 in which the width of the insulating partition was 1.3 times the particle size of the conductive particles, almost no display unevenness occurred, whereas the width of the insulating partition was 2.0 times the particle size of the conductive particles. Since the display unevenness was generated in Examples 8 and 11, it is presumed that the display unevenness can be suppressed if the width of the insulating partition is about 1.5 times or less the particle diameter of the conductive particles.
