Patent ID: 8680593

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising: a first substrate; a second substrate; an interlayer insulating film between the first substrate and the second substrate; a storage capacitor between the interlayer insulating film and the first substrate; a photolithographic spacer and a liquid crystal material which are between the interlayer insulating film and the second substrate; and a pixel electrode between the photolithographic spacer and the interlayer insulating film, wherein the storage capacitor comprises an insulating film, an island-shaped semiconductor layer between the insulating film and the first substrate, and a capacitor wiring between the insulating film and the interlayer insulating film, wherein the photolithographic spacer comprises a first resin material, wherein the interlayer insulating film comprises a second resin material, wherein the photolithographic spacer overlaps with the storage capacitor with the interlayer insulating film interposed between the photolithographic spacer and the storage capacitor, wherein the photolithographic spacer overlaps with the insulating film, the island-shaped semiconductor layer, and the capacitor wiring, and wherein the photolithographic spacer and the pixel electrode overlap with each other.
