Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a liquid-crystal display device, the method comprising:forming at least one layer of a conductor layer and a dielectric layer on an insulating substrate;forming a resist layer on said one layer;dividedly exposing the resist layer into a plurality of divided regions; andpatterning said one layer into a predetermined shape by etching said one layer through the exposed resist layer,wherein at the time of the exposure, a boundary line of each of the respective divided regions is formed in a zigzag shape and engaged with a boundary line of another adjacent one of the divided regions, and the zigzag-shaped boundary line of each of the divided regions has such a pattern as to extend into another diagonally opposed one of the divided regions at a region where a horizontal boundary line horizontally dividing the divided regions and a vertical boundary line vertically dividing the divided regions intersect or are joined with each other.
