Abstract:
1. A substrate for a liquid crystal display device, comprising: a gate bus line formed on an insulating substrate; a drain bus line formed so as to cross the gate bus line with an insulating film interposed in between; a storage capacitor bus line formed approximately parallel with the gate bus line; a transistor having a gate electrode connected electrically to the gate bus line, a drain electrode connected electrically to the drain bus line, and a source electrode; a first pixel electrode connected electrically to the source electrode of the transistor; a second pixel electrode formed so as to be opposed to part of the source electrode of the transistor via an insulating film and to be separate from the first pixel electrode; and a slit formed between adjoining end portions of the first pixel electrode and the second pixel electrode; wherein a width of the portion of the slit located over the storage capacitor bus line is greater than the shortest width of the portion of the slit not located over the storage capacitor bus line.
