TFT-LCD having pixel electrode overlapping scan and data lines except at the intersection of lines

摘要

A structure is provided which avoids overlap of a pixel electrode and an intersecting portion of a gate line and a data line. For example, the pixel electrode is patterned such that its corner portion is intentionally cut out to avoid the intersecting portion. With this structure, the capacitance of a storage capacitor that is formed by an overlapping portion of the pixel electrode and a black matrix can be increased while short-circuiting in a third interlayer insulating film that is interposed between the pixel electrode and the black matrix is prevented.
