<p>PURPOSE:To prevent an LCD which uses an MIM element from having a spot defect and to offer the large-capacity liquid crystal display element which has no defect at low cost by using a thin film two-terminal element where a current flows through a nonlinear resistance layer >=3 times between a lead electrode and a picture element electrode through repeating electrodes. CONSTITUTION:The MIM element is so structured that the lead electrode 3, a 1st lower repeating electrode 4, and a picture element connection electrode 5 are formed at the same time as lower electrodes of chromium and then the nonlinear resistance layer 7 is formed. Then, a 1st upper repeating electrode 8 and a 2nd upper repeating electrode 9 are formed as upper electrodes of chromium. Consequently, a current flows through the nonlinear resistance layer 7 times in the order of the lead electrode 3, nonlinear resistance layer 7, 1st upper repeating electrode 8, nonlinear resistance layer 7, 1st power repeating electrode 4, nonlinear resistance layer 7, 2nd upper repeating electrode 9, nonlinear resistance layer 7, and picture element connecting electrode 5 or in the opposite order. Therefore, even if 2 of four MIM elements are broken owing to a short circuit, the remaining one switching element operates as a switching element and its picture elements do not become effective picture elements.</p> |
