Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. A display device comprising:
an array substrate;
a counter substrate including a first side surface and a second side surface opposed to the first side surface;
a liquid crystal layer between the array substrate and the counter substrate; and
a light source disposed so as to emit light from a side of the second side surface toward a side of the first side surface, wherein
the array substrate comprises, in a display region:
a plurality of signal lines arranged in a first direction with spaces between the signal lines; and
a plurality of scanning lines arranged in a second direction with spaces between the scanning lines,

a mesh-shaped metal layer is provided in a peripheral region outside the display region,
a direction of incidence of light from the side of the second side surface closest to the light source toward the side of the first side surface is non-orthogonal to a first line forming a mesh of the mesh-shaped metal layer,
the first line extends in a third direction different from the first direction and the second direction,
the direction of incidence of the light is non-orthogonal to a second line that forms the mesh of the mesh-shaped metal layer, and, the second line extends in a fourth direction different from the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction.
