Abstract

The present invention provides a liquid crystal display device to protect device users from EMI coming from the liquid crystal display panel. The liquid crystal display device of the present invention comprises: a first substrate, wherein the substrate has a black matrix; a second substrate; a liquid crystal layer between the first substrate and the second substrate; and a first electro-magnetic interference shield layer on the first substrate, wherein the position of the first electro-magnetic interference shield layer corresponds to the position of the black matrix.
