Liquid crystal display and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

Parasitic capacity between Cs lines and source lines forming a picture element section is reduced, whereby characteristic resistant to crosstalk is achieved, opening ratio is increased, and brightness of LCD is increased. The Cs lines are arranged on the source lines in such a manner as to cover the source lines, and picture element electrodes are arranged and formed on the Cs lines in such a manner as to partially overlap. By forming a structure in which the source lines, the Cs lines and the picture element electrodes are laminated in order, parasitic capacity between the Cs lines and the source lines forming a picture element section can be reduced, and crosstalk can be minimized. As a distance between the source lines and the picture element electrodes can be reduced from the viewpoint of a plan view, opening ratio can be improved.

Problems solved by technology

When the parasitic capacity Cdp becomes large, a problem of crosstalk occurs.

In other words, there arises a problem that, as the crosstalk occurs when decreasing the distance between the picture element electrode 114 and the source line 107, it is necessary to secure a distance exceeding a certain value between the picture element electrode and the source line.

As a result, opening ratio of the liquid crystal display cannot be increased.

As discussed above, in the picture element structure of the conventional TFT array substrate, there is a problem that when decreasing the distance between the picture element electrode and the source line to improve the opening ratio, the parasitic capacity Cdp is increased, eventually resulting in occurrence of crosstalk.

It is well known that if the variation is large, there arises a flicker in image plane, and a phenomenon (hereinafter referred to printing) takes place in which when a pattern is continuously displayed for a long time, the same pattern still remains after being switched to the other pattern, wh
