Abstract

A color filter substrate can include a first colored layer, a second colored layer, and a third colored layer that are arranged on a transparent substrate and that have mutually different hues, and a common electrode disposed so as to cover the first colored layer, the second colored layer, and the third colored layer, wherein the common electrode includes a first transparent electrode and a second transparent electrode that are disposed to overlap the first colored layer and the second colored layer, respectively, and that are made of a first transparent conductive film; a third transparent electrode that is disposed to overlap the third colored layer, the third transparent electrode being made of a second transparent conductive film that is different from the first transparent conductive film; and a fourth transparent electrode that is disposed to overlap the first colored layer, the fourth transparent electrode being made of the second transparent conductive film.
