Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display panel of a transverse electric field system, comprising: a liquid crystal layer; and a pair of substrates configured to be so disposed as to be opposed to each other and sandwich the liquid crystal layer, wherein a first electrode and a second electrode for applying an electric field to the liquid crystal layer and an alignment film are formed in a plurality of pixel areas that form a display area in one of the pair of substrates, a planarization insulating film is formed on a surface of at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode and across an entire surface of the pixel areas, and the alignment film is formed on a surface of the planarization insulating film, and wherein a terminal, a routing interconnect electrically connected to the terminal, and an interconnect insulating film covering the routing interconnect are formed in a peripheral part of the display area, and the interconnect insulating film is composed of the same material as a material of the planarization insulating film.
