Patent ID: 8284366

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising: liquid crystals; a circuit layer which includes a thin-film transistor and a plurality of wirings, the plurality of wirings being formed from metal; a pixel electrode and a common electrode which are stacked on each other between the liquid crystals and the circuit layer with an insulating film disposed therebetween in order to drive the liquid crystals in a transverse electric field driving mode, and each of which is formed from a transparent conductive film; a color filter which includes a plurality of coloring layers of different colors, the coloring layers having different transmittances; and a connection wiring, wherein the plurality of wirings includes a common wiring which is disposed so as not to face the coloring layer having the highest transmittance among the plurality of coloring layers but to face any one of the other coloring layers, and wherein the connection wiring connects the common electrode and the common wiring to each other.
