Abstract
A LCD device has a black matrix defining a plurality of pixel areas in the LCD device. An interconnect layer formed on a TFT panel includes a first interconnect line passing through the pixel area and a second interconnect line passing outside the pixel area. The first interconnect line is lower in a product of a thickness thereof by a surface reflectance thereof than the second interconnect line.
Claims13
A liquid crystal display (LCD) device comprising:
- a liquid crystal layer;
- a pair of opposing panels sandwiching therebetween said liquid crystal layer;
- a black matrix mounted on either of said opposing panels for defining an array of pixels each having a pixel area in said LCD device;
- and
- an interconnect layer mounted on one of said opposing panels and patterned to a plurality of interconnect lines formed on a common insulator, wherein:
- one of said interconnect lines extending in said pixel area is lower in a product of a thickness thereof by a surface reflectance thereof than another of said interconnect lines extending outside said pixel area.
