A liquid crystal display device achieving high aperture rate and high definition is disclosed. The liquid crystal display device comprises a plurality of scanning lines 12, an insulating film 21 covering the plurality of scanning lines, a plurality of signal lines 13 having an intersection 13D with each of the scanning lines 12, pixel electrodes formed adjacent to the scanning line and the signal line, a plurality of thin film transistors, each of which having a gate electrode, drain electrode 14b, and source electrode 14a, a gate electrode connected to a semiconductor layer, a gate insulating film, and the scanning lines, a drain electrode 14b or a source electrode 14a connected to the signal lines, the other of the drain and the source electrodes connected to the pixel electrode, the drain electrode and the source electrode are linearly disposed along the signal lines, and a plurality of relay electrodes 17 in which a first overlapped portion 17a overlaps the intersection 13D and a second overlapped portion 17c overlaps one of the electrodes, thus connecting that electrode to the signal lines. The first overlapped portion of the relay electrode has a length sufficient to cover the stepped portions 13E, 13D of the insulating film 21 corresponding to the both ends 12b, 12c of the scanning line 12 in a width direction. |
