Abstract:
In a liquid crystal display device including: TFT substrate; color filter; counter electrode; interlayer insulation film; pixel electrode; alignment film; liquid crystal layer; counter substrate; and Si semiconductor layer. The color filter, counter electrode, interlayer insulation film, pixel electrode, and alignment film being formed on the side where the TFT substrate is provided, the counter substrate being disposed in facing relation to the TFT substrate with the liquid crystal layer put between the counter substrate and TFT substrate, the Si semiconductor layer is formed between the pixel electrode and interlayer insulation film. Even when light from a backlight is absorbed by the color filter and sufficient light cannot reach the alignment film, electric charges accumulated on the alignment film can escape to the pixel electrode in an early stage by the Si semiconductor layer formed under the alignment film, thereby capable of erasing the afterimage in an early stage.

Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device includes a TFT substrate and a counter substrate and a liquid crystal layer sandwiched therebetween. A scanning line, a video signal line, a thin film transistor connected to the scanning line and the video signal line, a pixel electrode connected to the thin film transistor, and a counter electrode are formed on the TFT substrate, and a columnar spacer formed on the counter substrate. The pixel and counter electrodes are transparent, and the liquid crystal layer is controlled by an electric field generated between the pixel and counter electrodes. The counter electrode contacts with a metal line having a first part which is extended in parallel with the scanning line and a second part which is extended in parallel with the video signal line, a width of the first part of the metal line being narrower than a width of the scanning line.

The first alignment film is a photo alignment film, and thickness “d2” of the second alignment film over the projecting portion and a film thickness “d1” of a portion of the first alignment film facing the projecting portion satisfy formula (2), d2
Abstract:
In a liquid crystal display device, a light shielding film, a color filter, an overcoat film, and an alignment film are formed in this order on a counter substrate. However, the alignment film is not formed in a seal portion. When the alignment film is subjected to photo-alignment with ultraviolet radiation, a portion of the overcoat film not covered with the alignment film is degraded by ultraviolet radiation. In order to prevent moisture penetrating from the degraded overcoat film from reaching the light shielding film to thereby alter the light shielding film and from causing the peeling of the light shielding film, the color filter is disposed below the overcoat film to block the moisture.
