A display device comprising:
- a substrate;
- a switching element provided on the substrate and including a relay electrode;
- a first lower electrode provided further away from the substrate than the switching element, the first lower electrode having an outer edge;
- a first insulating film provided on the first lower electrode;
- a first middle electrode provided on the first insulating film, the first middle electrode connected to the relay electrode through a through hole of the first insulating film;
- a second insulating film provided on the first middle electrode;
- and
- a first upper electrode provided on the second insulating film and supplied with a same potential as that of the first lower electrode, the first upper electrode including a plurality of openings,
- wherein
- the first middle electrode functions as a pixel electrode,
- the first lower electrode and the first upper electrode sandwich the first middle electrode and function as a common electrode,
- the through hole is provided outside the outer edge of the first lower electrode,
- an entirety of the thorough hole is covered with the second insulating film and the first upper electrode, and
- the second insulating film includes a filler disposed to fill in the through hole, and a first layer covering the through hole and the filler.
