<p>PURPOSE: To provide a liquid crystal display device with which the sure repair of a pixel failing to operate normally, i.e., dot defect, in the TFT array of the liquid crystal display device is possible and its production and a method for repairing the dot defect. CONSTITUTION: Bridges 13 which bestride adjacent pixel electrodes 3 and consist of metallic thin films and islands 12 which consist of the metallic thin films in the positions corresponding to the lower layers of these bridges 13 via gate insulating films and the positions of the upper layers or the lower layers of the pixel electrodes 3 are formed in this liquid crystal display device. If the certain pixel includes the dot defect, the gate insulating film between the bridge 13 and the island 12 is melted by a laser beam to short-circuit the bridge 13 and the island 12, by which the pixel including the dot defect is made into the same potential as the potential of the adjacent pixels and is thereby repaired.</p> |
