Abstract

An in-plane switching mode active matrix type liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate, a second substrate located opposing the first substrate, and a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the first and second substrates. The first substrate includes a thin film transistor, a pixel electrode each associated to a pixel to be driven, a common electrode to which a reference voltage is applied, data lines, a scanning line, and common electrode lines. Molecular axes of liquid crystal are rotated in a plane parallel with the first substrate by an electric field substantially parallel with a plane of the first substrate to thereby display certain images. The common electrode is composed of transparent material, and are formed on a layer located closer to the liquid crystal layer than the data lines. The common electrode entirely overlaps the data lines except an area where the data lines are located in the vicinity of the scanning line. The liquid crystal display device further includes a light-impermeable layer in an area where the common electrode entirely overlaps the data lines. The light-impermeable layer is comprised of a black matrix layer having a width smaller than a width of the common electrode.

Description

[0001] technical field of invention [0002] The invention relates to a liquid crystal display device and its manufacturing method, in particular to a planar switch mode active matrix liquid crystal display device and its manufacturing method. Background of the invention [0003] Liquid crystal display devices can be divided into two types, one of which is that the molecular axis of the oriented liquid crystal molecules rotates on a plane perpendicular to the substrate to display an image; the other type is that the molecular axes of the oriented liquid crystal molecules rotate in parallel Rotate on the plane of the substrate to display an image. [0004] A standard mode in the former type is a twisted nematic (TN) mode liquid crystal display device, and the latter type is called an in-plane switching (IPS) mode liquid crystal display device. [0005] Because the viewer only watches from the direction extending along the short axis of the liquid crystal molecules, even if he / ...
