Liquid crystal display device

A liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a liquid crystal display panel;
• a semiconductor integrated circuit on the liquid crystal display panel;
• a backlight module that includes at least a light source and a light guide plate and is disposed opposing the liquid crystal display panel;
• a metal frame that is made of a metal and has a portion that is positioned around at least one of the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight module;
• a flexible printed circuit that is mounted on the liquid crystal display panel and extends as far as a position where it opposes the metal frame;
• a light-blocking tape that has a portion that is positioned at least between the semiconductor integrated circuit and the light source between the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight module;
• and
• an insulating tape that is made of an electrical insulator,
• wherein
• the light-blocking tape includes
• a light-blocking layer that has a first surface that faces the liquid crystal display panel and a second surface that faces the backlight module,
• a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer that has a portion that is formed on the first surface of the light-blocking layer and pressure-sensitively adheres to the liquid crystal display panel and
• a second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer that has a portion that is formed on the second surface of the light-blocking layer and pressure-sensitively adheres to the backlight module, and
• the insulating tape pressure-sensitively adheres to the first or second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer between the liquid crystal display panel and the backlight module and extends as far as between the flexible printed circuit and the metal frame.
