Patent ID: 8692756

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device provided with a liquid crystal layer interposed between a thin film transistor array substrate and an opposed substrate and with a plurality of pixels, wherein: the thin film transistor array substrate comprises: gate lines and source lines arranged in a grid pattern on a principal surface of a supporting substrate, transparent pixel electrodes placed on the pixels, thin film transistors formed in the vicinity of intersection points between the gate lines and source lines, and a gate insulator, a passivation layer, a transparent conductive film, a first insulation layer, and transparent pixel electrodes stacked in order from a supporting substrate side; the transparent pixel electrodes are electrically connected with drain electrodes of the thin film transistors through contact holes formed in the first insulation layer; when a substrate surface is viewed in a direction of a normal to the substrate surface, the transparent conductive film does not overlap regions in which the transparent pixel electrodes and the drain electrodes are electrically connected with each other; and the thin film transistor array substrate further comprises storage capacitor electrodes placed across the passivation layer from the transparent conductive film when the substrate surface is viewed in the direction of the normal.
