摘要:
Input of image signals to part of a plurality of pixels included in a particular region of a pixel portion and supply of light to part of another plurality of pixels which is different from the part are performed concurrently. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a period in which light is supplied to all of the plurality of pixels included in the region after the image signals are input thereto. In other words, it is possible to start input of the next image signals to all of the plurality of pixels included in the region just after the image signals are input thereto. Accordingly, it is possible to increase the input frequency of the image signals. As a result, it is possible to suppress deteriorations of display caused in the field-sequential liquid crystal display device.

Provided are a liquid crystal display device with horizontal electric field mode, in which a decrease in driving speed can be suppressed by reducing the resistance of a wiring even when the number of pixels is increased, and a manufacturing method thereof. One of a scan wiring and a signal wiring is divided in an intersection portion where the scan wiring and the signal wiring intersect with each other, and the separated wirings are connected with a connection electrode positioned over a thick insulating film. Accordingly, parasitic capacitance at the intersection portion can be reduced, preventing the decrease in the driving speed. The connection electrode is formed at the same time as formation of a pixel electrode and a common electrode using a low-resistance metal, which contributes to the reduction in manufacturing process of the liquid crystal display device.

A seed crystal including mixed phase grains having high crystallinity at a low density is formed under a first condition over an insulating film, and then a first microcrystalline semiconductor film is formed over the seed crystal under a second condition that allows the mixed phase grains to grow and a space between the mixed phase grains to be filled. Then, a second microcrystalline semiconductor film is formed over the first microcrystalline semiconductor film under a third condition that allows formation of a microcrystalline semiconductor film having high crystallinity without increasing the space between the mixed phase grains included in the first microcrystalline semiconductor film.

An object is to provide a manufacturing method of a microcrystalline silicon film with improved adhesion between an insulating film and the microcrystalline silicon film. The microcrystalline silicon film is formed in the following manner. Over an insulating film, a microcrystalline silicon grain having a height that allows the microcrystalline silicon grain to be completely oxidized by later plasma oxidation (e.g., a height greater than 0 nm and less than or equal to 5 nm), or a microcrystalline silicon film or an amorphous silicon film having a thickness that allows the microcrystalline silicon film or the amorphous silicon film to be completely oxidized by later plasma oxidation (e.g., a thickness greater than 0 nm and less than or equal to 5 nm) is formed. Plasma treatment in an atmosphere including oxygen or plasma oxidation is performed on the microcrystalline silicon grain, the microcrystalline silicon film, or the amorphous silicon film, so that a silicon oxide grain or a silicon oxide film is formed over the insulating film. A microcrystalline silicon film is formed over the silicon oxide grain or the silicon oxide film.
