Liquid crystal display device with semiconductor layer of TFT and pixel electrode at different levels

摘要

An active matrix type liquid crystal display device includes first and second substrates, a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first and second substrates, a plurality of pixel regions formed by image signal lines and scan signal lines, and a semiconductor layer, a pixel electrode, a counter electrode formed on the first substrate in a pixel region. The pixel electrode is arranged at level which is lower than a level of the semiconductor layer.
