Abstract

The present invention provides a nonlinear semiconductor element which has a V-I characteristic of excellent origin symmetry and a liquid crystal display panel which employs such nonlinear semiconductor element. The nonlinear semiconductor has an n-i-n, n-i-p-i-n, or p-i-n-i-p type structure. The i-type semiconductor layer is intentionally doped with boron, which acts to make the i-type semiconductor layer more intrinsic.
