Abstract

A manufacturing method for a liquid crystal apparatus of a transverse electric field system that is provided with a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between a first substrate and a second substrate and a pixel electrode and a common electrode formed on the first substrate and is arranged to drive liquid crystal through an electric field generated between the pixel electrode and the common electrode includes the steps of forming a material layer made of photosensitive resin on a glass substrate and performing an exposure processing with a predetermined exposure pattern, performing a development processing on the material layer and forming a resin light interruption layer having an opening section that exposes the glass substrate in a bottom section, forming an electrostatic interruption layer while covering the resin light interruption layer, and providing a colored layer in an area overlapped with the opening section on the electrostatic interruption layer.

Claims (18)

1. A manufacturing method for a liquid crystal apparatus of a transverse electric field system that is provided with a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between a first substrate and a second substrate and a pixel electrode and a common electrode formed on the first substrate and is arranged to drive liquid crystal through an electric field generated between the pixel electrode and the common electrode, the method comprising:

forming a material layer made of photosensitive resin on a glass substrate and performing an exposure processing with a predetermined exposure pattern;

performing a development processing on the material layer and forming a resin light interruption layer having an opening section that exposes the glass substrate in a bottom section;

forming an electrostatic interruption layer while covering the resin light interruption layer; and

providing a colored layer in an area overlapped with the opening section on the electrostatic interruption layer;

forming an insulating layer that covers the electrostatic interruption layer and the colored layer; and

forming a first contact hole that exposes the electrostatic interruption layer on the insulating layer;

forming a drive circuit and a routing wiring electrically connected to the drive circuit on the first substrate; and

arranging a conductive material at a location overlapped with the first contact hole in a planar manner and electrically connecting the routing wiring with the electrostatic interruption layer.

2. The manufacturing method for the liquid crystal apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

after the forming the routing wiring, forming an insulating film that covers the routing wiring;

forming a second contact hole that exposes a part of the routing wiring on the insulating film; and

forming an electroconductive film that covers the routing wiring inside the second contact hole,

wherein in the electrically connecting, the conductive material is arranged in contact with the electroconductive film.

3. The manufacturing method for the liquid crystal apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein in the forming the electroconductive film, an electroconductive metal oxide is used as a formation material.

4. The manufacturing method for the liquid crystal apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

after the pixel electrode is formed on the first substrate, forming the common electrode that is overlapped with the pixel electrode via an insulating film.
