  • Patent number: 8520173
    Abstract: A display device is provided, decreasing the influence of reflected incident/ambient light caused by patterned bus lines therein, wherein a backlight is disposed at a back side of a substrate comprising common electrodes and color filters, and images are viewed at a side of another substrate comprising pixel electrodes and thin film transistors. A layer (low-reflection layer) with an optical reflectivity lower than that of bus lines, is disposed in a buffer film formed between a viewing side of a glass substrate and an insulating film where the bus lines 4a are disposed. The low-reflection layer is patterned with the same shape as those of the bus lines and covers the bus lines. The incident/ambient light via the glass substrate is shielded by the low-reflection layer and does not arrive at the bus lines.
