Abstract: A panel for a liquid crystal display device includes: a first mother substrate for cutting out color filter substrates including a first cell area corresponding to a first cell and a second cell area corresponding to a second cell therefrom; a first colored layer arranged in the first cell area of the first mother substrate; a second colored layer arranged in the second cell area of the first mother substrate; a second mother substrate for cutting out array substrates therefrom; and liquid crystal sandwiched between the first mother substrate and the second mother substrate. The first colored layer and the second colored layer are made of the same material and have portions which have the same thickness.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes pixels, each of which includes a first transistor and a second transistor. The size of the first transistor is larger than the size of the second transistor. In addition, channel widths and gate widths for the first transistor are larger than those of the second transistor. Also, the first transistor is located to be closer to a drain signal line provided for the pixel than the second transistor. In normal operation, the first transistor is coupled to the drain signal line and the second transistor is floating. However, if an abnormality occurs in the first transistor, it is cut off from the drain signal line and the second transistor is connected to the drain signal line by a repair line.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to form spacers for defining the space between the TFT substrate and the facing substrate of color filters, and by doing so, finely control the height of the spacers. First spacers 10 are formed of green color filters G in pillar form on top of red color filters R and blue color filters B (green color filters G) having a large area between blue pixels BP; second spacers 20 are formed by layering blue color filters B (green color filters G) and green color filters G having a large area on top of red color filters R in pillar form between green pixels GP; and the second spacers 20 are shorter than the first spacers 10 due to the leveling effects of the layered blue color filters B (green color filters G) and green color filters G.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes a TFT substrate, a facing substrate and liquid crystal sandwiched therebetween. First pixels for displaying a first color according to a first color filter, second pixels for displaying a second color according a second color filter and third pixels for displaying a third color according to a third color filter are aligned in a longitudinal direction on the facing substrate, respectively. The first color filters, the second color filters, and the third color filters extend in stripes in the longitudinal direction so as to cover the first, second and third pixels, respectively. First spacers are formed between the first pixels by layering a number of color filters, including the first color filters, and second spacers are formed of a number of color filters, including the second color filters, between the second pixels. The first color filters which are formed between the second pixels are circular in plan view.

Abstract: An LCD device has a pair of substrates including orientation films on surfaces thereof which face opposing substrates. The substrate on which signal lines are formed, on a side thereof which is disposed between a region on which sealing material is arranged and a display region and along which the signal lines extend to the outside of the sealing material from the display region, includes a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer and an insulation layer which is interposed therebetween. The insulation layer extends in the direction at least along an outer periphery of the display region, and includes groove portion having a recessed groove which opens on the orientation film side. The first conductive layer is covered on the surface of the recessed groove. The signal lines are formed in a state that the signal lines go around the recessed groove.

Abstract: An etching resist including first and second portions, the first portion being thicker than the second portion, is formed on a metallic layer. Through the etching resist, a semiconductor layer and the metallic layer are patterned by etching so as to form a wiring from the metallic layer and leave the semiconductor layer under the wiring. An electrical test is conducted on the wiring. The second portion is removed while the first portion is left unremoved. Selective etching is performed through the first portion so as to leave the semiconductor layer unetched to pattern the wiring to be divided into drain and source electrodes. A substrate is cut. In patterning the wiring, the wiring is etched to be cut at a position closer to a cutting line of the substrate with respect to the drain and source electrodes, while leaving the semiconductor layer unetched.

Abstract: The present invention reduces a connection failure between two conductive layers which are connected with each other via a through hole in a display device and reduces a defect of an orientation film formed on a TFT substrate side in a liquid crystal display device. A display device includes a display panel in which a first conductive layer formed on a surface of a substrate, and a second conductive layer which is formed over the first conductive layer as viewed from a surface of the substrate by way of a thin film layer formed of one insulation film or two or more stacked thin films including one insulation film are electrically connected with each other in an opening portion formed in the thin film layer. Out of opening ends of the opening portion of the thin film layer, an outer periphery of the opening end remote from the surface of the substrate changes a distance from the surface of the substrate one time or more during one turn of the outer periphery.
