Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device including a TFT substrate with display and peripheral regions. The display region has pixels each having a pixel electrode and a TFT. A counter substrate opposes the TFT substrate and has a color filter formed at a position corresponding to a position at which the pixel electrode is formed above the TFT substrate. The method includes coating, outside of the display region of the TFT substrate, a second alignment film in the shape of a frame, and coating, in the display region, a first alignment film that dries more slowly than the second alignment film. The first and second alignment films are in contact, and the second alignment film is thicker than the first alignment film.
Abstract:
Provided is a liquid crystal display device, including a first and second substrates, the second substrate including data signal lines, gate signal lines, pixel electrodes, a plurality of common electrodes that extend in one of a column direction and a row direction, and a plurality of shield electrodes overlapping at least one of the data signal lines or the gate signal lines, the plurality of common electrodes including a first common electrode to which a first voltage is supplied and a second common electrode to which a second voltage is supplied, the first common electrode and the second common electrode being alternately arranged in one of the row direction and the column direction, in which, in plan view, each of the plurality of shield electrodes is formed to overlap at least a gap formed between the first common electrode and the second common electrode that are adjacent to each other.
Abstract:
In a liquid crystal display device it is desirable to test in the state of TFT substrates, without reducing the number of TFT substrates to be obtained from one mother TFT substrate, and without increasing the overall size of the TFT substrates. Test terminals are formed on the outside of terminals for driving the liquid crystal display device. The test terminals of the specific TFT substrate are formed in another TFT substrate just below the specific TFT substrate. The area in which the test lines are formed is a space in which a sealing material is formed, between the display area and an end of the lower TFT substrate. Thus, the size of the TFT substrates is not actually increased. A test line area is not separately formed and not discarded, so that the number of TFT substrates to be obtained from one mother TFT substrate is not reduced.

Abstract:
As source and drain wiring, a base layer and a cap layer are each formed of a MoNiNb alloy film, and a low-resistance layer is formed of Cu. The resultant laminated metal film is patterned through one-time wet etching to form a drain electrode and a source electrode. Cu serving as a main wiring layer does not corrode because of being covered with a MoNiNb alloy having good corrosion resistance. Further, even when a protective insulating film including an oxide is formed by plasma CVD in an oxidizing atmosphere, Cu is not oxidized. With the wet etching, the sidewall taper angle of the laminated metal film can be controlled to 20 degrees or more and less than 70 degrees.
