Abstract
A liquid crystal display device having a non-rectangular display panel includes an active area which is defined by a peripheral shield layer. A plurality of pixels are formed in the active area in a matrix, and each pixel includes a plurality of sub-pixels to display colors different from each other. A part of the sub-pixels of peripheral pixels located in a peripheral region of the active area is covered with a peripheral shield layer. Shield elements are arranged in the sub-pixels which are not covered with the peripheral shield layer so that an effective display area of each of the sub-pixels of the peripheral pixel is substantially equal.
