Abstract

An active substrate is provided, which comprises a switching element comprising a first drive region and a second drive region, a signal line being connected to the first drive region, a pixel electrode connected to the second drive region, a first layer comprising at least one of a semiconductor material and a conductive material, and connected to the pixel electrode, a second layer comprising at least one of a semiconductor material and a conductive material, and connected to the signal line; and an insulating film provided between the first layer and the second layer. At least a portion of the first layer and at least a portion of the second layer overlap each other so that the first layer and the second layer are short-circuited by applying first energy to the insulating film.
