Abstract:
Provided is a display panel that reduces occurrence of display irregularities in a display region even in a case where driving circuits that switch gate lines between selected and non-selected states are provided in the display region. A display panel of the present invention includes an active matrix substrate and a counter substrate, the active matrix substrate being provided with a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of source lines. The active matrix substrate includes, in a display region, a driving circuit provided with respect to each of the gate lines, for switching the gate line between a selected state and a non-selected state. The display panel further includes, in a non-installation region where the driving circuit is not provided, an aperture ratio adjustment member that changes an aperture ratio in the non-installation region stepwise, in order to decrease a difference between a luminance in an installation region where the driving circuit is provided and a luminance in the non-installation region.
