Abstract: A source of a driving transistor for driving an organic EL element functions as a first capacitance electrode layer. A second capacitance electrode layer is formed on the source through a gate insulating film of the driving transistor. The second capacitance electrode layer is formed with the same layer and by the same process as the gate electrode. A third capacitance electrode layer is formed extending over the second capacitance electrode layer through the interlayer insulating film. The third capacitance electrode layer is formed with the same layer as the drain electrode and the drain signal line. The third capacitance electrode layer is connected to the source of the driving transistor. The forming area of the storage capacitance element for holding the video signal supplied to the gate of the driving transistor can be thus reduced, improving display quality as well as extending life span of the organic El element.

Abstract: A TFT for controlling the power supplied to an element to be driven, such as an organic EL element which operates based on the supplied power, is provided between the element to be driven and a power supply line VL. The TFT and the element to be driven are electrically connected by a wiring layer. The contact position between the wiring layer and the TFT and the contact position between the wiring layer and the element to be driven are positioned so as to be distant from each other. Alternatively, at least the contact hole region of a first electrode of the element is covered by a flattening layer. With this structure, it is possible to realize a flatter surface on which to form, for example, the emissive layer of the element to be driven.

Abstract: On a substrate (10), one or more inverter circuits for adjusting delay time are provided between an external clock input section (T1, T2) to which a clock signal CKH1 or CKH2 is externally input and a sampling signal generating circuit (shift register). Of the inverter circuits, only necessary inverter circuits are selected and connected, thereby delaying the sampling timing for a video signal. The connection between the inverter circuit and the signal path is achieved simply by changing a connection line pattern mask in accordance with the number of inverter circuits to be connected, and without changing other manufacturing processes.
