Abstract
There is provided a liquid crystal display device which utilizes low resistance metal wiring and in which pixel electrodes and drain electrodes can be reliably connected and a method for manufacturing the same. Gate electrodes connected to gate signal lines are formed on a transparent insulating substrate, and a gate insulation film is formed to cover the same. A semiconductor layer, source electrodes and drain electrodes are formed over the gate electrodes, and a metal layer to become source signal lines and source and drain extraction electrodes is formed. The metal layer is formed by stacking a titanium film and an aluminum film. The interlayer insulation film is formed to cover TFTs, gate signal lines and source signal lines. Through holes are formed in the interlayer insulation film to expose at least a part of the periphery of the drain extraction electrodes. Pixel electrodes are formed to cover the through holes.
