Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal device comprising: a first substrate; a second substrate that is opposed to the first substrate, wherein the first substrate and the second substrate hold liquid crystal therebetween; a switching element; a signal wiring that is connected to the switching element; a planarizing film made of insulating film, wherein the planarizing film has a flatness and is provided above the signal wiring and the switching element; a first electrode that is provided above the planarizing film; an electrode insulating film that is provided above the first electrode; a second electrode that is provided above the electrode insulating film and has a plurality of slits, wherein the second electrode generates an electric field that passes through the slits between the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein the switching element, the signal wiring, the planarizing film, the first electrode, the electrode insulating film and the second electrode are formed on or above the first substrate; a terminal that is provided at least in a portion of a region on the first substrate in which the planarizing film is not formed, wherein the terminal is used for connection with a mounting component, wherein the terminal includes: a terminal wiring that is electrically connected to the terminal, wherein the terminal wiring and the terminal body portion are formed in different wiring layers via an interlayer insulating film, the terminal wiring is positioned in a lower layer than the terminal body portion, and the terminal wiring is electrically connected to the terminal body portion through a through-hole that is formed in the interlayer insulating film.
