ELECTRO-OPTICAL DEVICE AND DISPLAY APPARATUS: abstract simplified (18190966)

• This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18190966 Titled 'ELECTRO-OPTICAL DEVICE AND DISPLAY APPARATUS'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a liquid crystal apparatus that includes various components such as a substrate, a pixel electrode, common wiring, a TFT (thin-film transistor), a scanning line, a capacitance element, and a second relay electrode. The capacitance element overlaps the scanning line and includes a first capacitance electrode with a protruding portion. The second relay electrode also overlaps the scanning line and includes a projecting portion that overlaps the protruding portion of the first capacitance electrode. These two electrodes are electrically connected through a contact hole.

Original Abstract Submitted

A liquid crystal apparatus includes a substrate, a pixel electrode, common wiring provided between the substrate and the pixel electrode, a TFT, a scanning line, a capacitance element provided between the substrate and the scanning line and overlapping the scanning line in plan view, and a second relay electrode electrically coupled to the common wiring and overlapping the scanning line in plan view. A first capacitance electrode serving as one electrode of the capacitance element includes a projecting portion protruding from the scanning line in plan view. The second relay electrode includes a projecting portion overlapping the projecting portion in plan view. The second relay electrode and the first capacitance electrode of the capacitance element are electrically coupled to each other through a contact hole provided between the projecting portion and the projecting portion.
