Abstract: A thin-film transistor (TFT) substrate is provided which includes: a substrate; a TFT disposed above the substrate; and a capacitor disposed above the substrate and electrically connected with the TFT, wherein the capacitor includes: a lower electrode layer disposed above the substrate and including an electrically conductive material as a main component; an upper electrode layer disposed above and opposed to the lower electrode layer and including, as a main component, an oxide semiconductor material to which electrical conductivity is given; and a capacitor insulating layer disposed between the lower electrode layer and the upper electrode layer. An extension extending outward from at least a portion of the outer edge of the lower electrode layer in plan view is provided to the lower electrode layer. In plan view, the upper electrode layer covers the lower electrode layer except the extension.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a first wiring line, a semiconductor film, a second wiring line, and an insulating film. The substrate includes first, second, and third regions provided adjacently in this order in a predetermined direction. The first wiring line is provided on the substrate and provided in each of the first, second, and third regions. The semiconductor film has a low-resistance region in at least a portion thereof. The semiconductor film is provided between the first wiring line and the substrate in the first region, and is in contact with the first wiring line in the second region. The second wiring line is provided at a position closer to the substrate than the semiconductor film, and is in contact with the first wiring line in the third region. The insulating film is provided between the first wiring line and the semiconductor film in the first region.
