Title:
LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/147722
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device (100) is provided with a TFT substrate (110) that includes: a TFT (10); a pixel electrode (12), which is electrically connected to the TFT (10) via an interlayer insulating layer that covers the TFT (10), and a contact hole (14) that is provided in the interlayer insulating layer; a storage capacitor bus line (6), and a storage capacitor electrode (8) connected to the storage capacitor bus line (6); and a storage capacitor counter electrode (16), which is electrically connected to the TFT (10) and the pixel electrode (12), has light blocking characteristics, and forms a storage capacitor section by having an insulating layer between the storage capacitor counter electrode (16) and the storage capacitor electrode (8). Furthermore, the liquid crystal display device (100) is provided with a counter substrate (120) that includes the counter electrode. A columnar spacer (24) is provided between the TFT substrate (110) and the counter substrate (120), said columnar spacer being disposed on a center portion of a pixel region such that the columnar spacer overlaps at least a part of the storage capacitor counter electrode. The contact hole (14) is provided such that the contact hole overlaps the storage capacitor counter electrode (16), and a black matrix (20) includes a portion (20x) that integrally covers the TFT (10) and the columnar spacer (24).
