Patent ID: 8330915

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising: pixels arranged in a matrix in a display region above a substrate; a thin film layer for laser writing formed in a non-display region outside of the display region; and a transparent insulating film extending from the display region to the non-display region and formed on the thin film layer, wherein: the transparent insulating film includes at least: an organic insulating film which is comprised of an organic compound for planarizing a surface of the substrate and which covers the thin film layer in a plan view, an inorganic insulating film which comprises a thin film formed on the organic insulating film and which is comprised of an inorganic compound and formed with an opening extending to the organic insulating film in a region above the thin film layer, and a transparent electrode layer which is formed in the opening of the inorganic insulating film to cover the organic insulating film exposed from the opening of the inorganic insulating film.
