Patent ID: 6839118

Claim:
A substrate for a liquid crystal display comprising: a base substrate that sandwiches a liquid crystal in combination with an opposite substrate provided opposite thereto; a plurality of bus lines formed on the base substrate such that they intersect each other with an insulation film interposed therebetween; pixel regions provided in the form of a matrix on the base substrate; a thin film transistor formed at each of the pixel regions; a storage capacitor electrode formed at each of the pixel regions; a connection wiring which is formed of the same material as that of a source electrode of the thin film transistor and the storage capacitor electrode and which electrically connects the source electrode and the storage capacitor electrode; color filter layers formed at the pixel regions; and a pixel electrode formed at each of the pixel regions on the color filter layers, wherein the pixel electrode has a stripe-like electrode having a trunk section extending in parallel with or perpendicularly to the bus lines and a plurality of branch sections branching from the trunk section and extending at an angle to the bus lines and spaces in the stripe-like electrode and wherein the connection wiring is formed in an overlapping relationship with the stripe-like electrode when viewed in a direction perpendicular to the substrate surface.
