Abstract
The present invention provides a liquid crystal display device to be operated at high speed and with high precision by improving performance of a thin-film transistor without increasing cross capacity of gate lines and data lines. On an upper layer of a gate insulator GI at an intersection of gate lines GL and data lines DL to be prepared on an active matrix substrate SUB1, which makes up a liquid crystal display panel of a liquid crystal display device, an insulating material with low dielectric constant is dropped by ink jet coating method to prepare another insulator LDP in order to improve performance characteristics of the thin-film transistor to be prepared on a silicon semiconductor layer SI without increasing cross capacity on said intersection.
