  • Liquid crystal display device and deficiency correcting method thereof
    Patent number: 6839099
    Abstract: A connection electrode and an island connection electrode which are coupled with each other via a drain thin line portion are serially provided at two different portions in an extension direction of a drain electrode of a TFT. The two connection and island connection electrodes are respectively connected to a pixel electrode via contact holes respectively formed in a layer insulating film. The distantly disposed connection electrode is stacked onto an auxiliary capacitance electrode via a gate insulating film in-between so as to form a storage capacitance. The island connection electrode is stacked onto an island auxiliary capacitance electrode via the gate insulating film in-between so as to form an island storage capacitance. The island auxiliary capacitance electrode is connected to the auxiliary capacitance electrode through an auxiliary capacitance electrode thin line portion.
