1 is a plan view of a liquid crystal display device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line XX 'of FIG.
Shown in For example, a pixel switching TFT (hereinafter, referred to as a pixel TFT) 1 is placed on an insulating substrate 101 such as a glass substrate.
02, and at the same time, a driving TFT for the pixel TFT group
(Hereinafter referred to as a driver) 103 is formed. Next, for example, polyimide is applied as the interlayer insulating film 104 so as to have a thickness of about 2 μm. After drying the polyimide, a chromium thin film is deposited to a thickness of about 1000 ° and patterned to form an etching mask for the interlayer insulating film 104. Thereafter, the interlayer insulating film 104 is patterned by a dry etching method. At this time, the portion to be etched of the interlayer insulating film 104 is a non-pixel display portion including a pixel electrode connection portion of the pixel TFT and a driver portion. After the etching is completed, the etching mask is removed, and the pixel electrode 106 is formed of ITO.
Next, the insulating substrate 101 and the counter substrate 107 are
Adhere with 0.

The above is the configuration of the liquid crystal display device using the present invention. However, since the interlayer insulating film 104 having a thickness of about 2 μm does not overlap the driver, the interlayer insulating film 10
4 can prevent the driver from being charged up due to the polarization of itself. Also, a counter electrode 11 formed on the counter substrate side
1 is formed so as to overlap at least the upper part of the driver portion with a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween. However, since the counter electrode 111 is at a common potential, the portion of the liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the counter electrode 111 and the driver portion is Basically has no electric field. Therefore, no electric field is applied to the driver portion located below the liquid crystal layer, so that malfunction of the driver can be prevented.

When the etching mask is formed of an insulator, it is not always necessary to remove the etching mask, and a pixel electrode can be formed on the interlayer insulating film 104 via the etching mask. In this case, since the etching mask stripping step is omitted, damage to the interlayer insulating film 104 can be further reduced.
