Black matrix coupled to common electrode through a transparent conductive film

摘要

An active matrix liquid crystal display comprising a common electrode (#217), connected to a conductive black matrix (#302 and #303) through a coupling electrode (#227), which allows the black matrix to be set at the common potential. The common electrode is formed on the same layer as that of the source lines and data lines. The pixel electrode (#228) and the coupling electrode (#227) are comprised of the same transparent electrically conductive material.
