LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE
The displacement between a TFT substrate and a counter substrate and the cut of an alignment film caused by a columnar spacer are prevented. A liquid crystal display device includes: a TFT substrate including a scanning line extending in a first direction, a picture signal line extending in a second direction, a pixel electrode formed in a region surrounded by the scanning line and the picture signal line, and a common electrode formed as opposed to the pixel electrode through an insulating film; a counter substrate disposed as opposed to the TFT substrate and having a spacer; and a liquid crystal sandwiched between the substrates. A common metal interconnection is formed to cover the picture signal line or the scanning line, and stacked on the common electrode. A through hole is formed on the common metal interconnection. The tip end of the spacer is disposed inside the through hole.
1 . A display device comprising:
pixel electrodes;
a common electrode;
a capacitive insulating film between the pixel electrodes and the common electrode;
a scanning line extending in a first direction;
a signal line extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction;
a common metal interconnection covering the scanning line and the signal line;
a slit formed on the common electrode at the portion corresponding to the pixel electrodes,
an alignment film covering the common electrode;
wherein
the common electrode covers the common metal interconnection, and
the slit is present on both sides of the common electrode.
2 . The display device of claim 1 , furthering comprising:
a through hole formed on the common metal interconnection in a region in which the signal line crosses the scanning line.
3 . The display device of claim 2 , furthering comprising:
a spacer disposed in the through hole.
4 . The display device of claim 1 ,
wherein the signal line is present between the pixel electrodes.
5 . The display device of claim 1 ,
wherein the capacitive insulating film is formed to cover the pixel electrode.
