Abstract
A liquid crystal device includes a pair of substrates including a first substrate and a second substrate and a liquid crystal layer having a negative dielectric anisotropy and interposed between the first and second substrates. The first substrate includes a data line, a switching device connected to the data line, an insulating film formed on the data line and the switching device, a pixel electrode formed on the insulating film, and a contact hole to which the switching device and a wire extending from the pixel electrode are connected.
Claims7
A liquid crystal device comprising:
- a pair of substrates including a first substrate and second substrate;
- and
- a liquid crystal layer including a negative dielectric anisotropy and interposed between the first substrate and second substrate,
- wherein the first substrate has
- a data line including a linear first section and a second circumventing section,
- a switching device connected to the data line,
- an insulating film formed over the data line and the switching device, the insulating film including a contact hole at a position aligned with the linear first section of the data line and such that the second circumventing section of the data line circumvents the contact hole,
- a pixel electrode formed over the insulating film, and a wire extending from the pixel electrode,
- the wire being connected to the switching device through the contact hole.
