Liquid crystal display apparatus in which electrode film forming capacitor in cooperation with pixel electrode is connected to gate wiring via connecting path

摘要

A liquid crystal display apparatus comprises: a substrate; gate wires and source wires formed in a matrix fashion on the substrate; gate electrodes formed close to points of intersection between the gate wires and the source wires, the gate electrodes being connected electrically to the gate wires; a first insulating film formed on the gate wires and the gate electrodes, the first insulating film further carrying the source wires thereon; a semiconductor active film formed over the gate electrodes with the first insulating film interposed therebetween; source electrodes formed on the semiconductor active film and connected to the source wires; drain electrodes formed on the semiconductor active film and isolated from the source electrodes; an electrode film intended to generate capacity and formed on the first insulating film, the electrode film being close to and in parallel with at least the source wires; a second insulating film formed on the first insulating film which carries the electrode film, the source wires, the source electrodes, the drain electrodes and the semiconductor active film thereon; and pixel electrodes connected to the drain electrodes and formed on the second insulating film in order to generate capacity in cooperation with the electrode film.
