Liquid crystal display apparatus

A liquid crystal display apparatus comprising:

• an array substrate that has a display area;
• a seal material that is formed to surround the display area;
• and
• an opposite substrate that is arranged to face the array substrate with sandwiching liquid crystals therebetween, the liquid crystals being sealed in an area surrounded by the seal material,
• wherein the array substrate includes
• a plurality of thin film transistors that is formed in correspondence to respective intersection parts of a plurality of gate wirings and a plurality of source wirings arranged in the display area;
• a pixel electrode that is connected to the thin film transistor;
• an opposite electrode that is formed to face the pixel electrode;
• a gate extraction wiring that connects one of the plurality of gate wirings and a connection terminal formed in an outer area that is outside of the area surrounded by the seal material;
• a conductive film that covers the gate extraction wiring with sandwiching a first insulation film therebetween, in part of the outer area, the conductive film includes an opaque conductive film that functions as a light shielding film without light transmitting regions or openings, and the opaque conductive film extends from the outer area, below the seal material, and into the area surrounded by the seal material;
• and
• a second insulation film that covers the conductive film in at least part of the outer area, and
• wherein the conductive film is applied with an electrical potential of the opposite electrode, and the liquid crystal display apparatus is a horizontal electric-field type.
