Abstract

A liquid crystal display device includes a pair of substrates with a liquid crystal layer therebetween, and a plurality of scan signal lines and a plurality of image signal lines formed on one of the pair of substrates cross each other in a matrix form. A pair of counter electrodes are arranged on both sides of the plurality of image signal lines, and a shielding layer is provided on the one of the pair of substrates and arranged between one of the a pair of counter electrodes and one of the plurality of image signal lines in plan view. A layer of the shielding layer is different from a layer of the pair of counter electrodes and a layer of the one of the plurality of image signal lines.
