The present invention provides an improved seal for sealing a liquid crystal display (LCD) device. An improved seal is formed between a transparent plate and a die having a pixel array. The improved seal is configured to encircle the pixel array of the die when the die and the transparent plate are joined. The die and the transparent plate are joined together such that the improved seal is disposed between the transparent plate and the die. In one embodiment, the improved seal is a hybrid seal. The hybrid seal includes a first seal encircling the pixel array of the die and adhesively coupling the transparent plate and the die. The hybrid seal further includes a second seal encircling the second seal. In another embodiment, the first seal lacks a characteristic necessary for an effective seal.
