Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 0:
1. A display device comprising:
a first substrate;
a second substrate having a principal surface facing a principal surface of the first substrate;
a first wire, provided in the first substrate, that extends along a first direction parallel with the principal surface of the first substrate;
a first electrode provided in the first substrate, disposed adjacent to the first wire in a second direction parallel with the principal surface of the first substrate and orthogonal to the first direction, and located closer to the second substrate than the first wire;
a second electrode provided in the first substrate, located closer to the second substrate than the first electrode, and disposed to overlap the first wire and the first electrode;
a first overlap section, provided in the second substrate and disposed to overlap at least the first wire, that extends along the first direction and that blocks light; and
a third electrode provided in the first substrate, located closer to the second substrate than the first wire, and located further away from the second substate than the first electrode,
wherein
a plurality of slits is formed in the second electrode, the plurality of slits being placed at spacings from one another, extending along an orientation parallel with the principal surface of the first substrate that intersects the first direction, and cutting across the first wire and the first electrode, and
the third electrode is disposed to overlap at least both the first wire and the slits.
