Abstract:
A liquid crystal device comprising:a substrate having an insulating surface; a plurality of switching elements provided over said substrate, each of said switching elements comprising an inverted staggered thin film transistor; a plurality of first signal lines having a first side and a second side extending in a first direction over said substrate; a plurality of second signal lines extending over said substrate in a second direction orthogonal to said first direction; an organic resin film formed over the plurality of switching elements, the plurality of first signal lines and the plurality of second signal lines; a plurality of pixel electrodes formed over said organic resin film and electrically connected to said plurality of switching elements; a liquid crystal layer adjacent to said plurality of pixel electrodes; and a peripheral circuit for driving said switching elements wherein said peripheral circuit comprises a plurality of inverted staggered thin film transistors formed over said substrate, wherein at least a portion of said plurality of first signal lines between the first side and the second side are completely covered by said plurality of pixel electrodes.
