A display device comprises scan lines on a insulating substrate, signal lines intersecting with the scan lines with an insulating film interposed therebetween, a display area comprising pixel electrodes connected to the signal lines, a scan line driver circuit connected to the scan lines, a signal line driver circuit connected to the signal lines. The scan line driver circuit and the signal line driver circuit are mounted directly on the insulating substrate outside of the display area and close to one side of the display area. Lines connecting the scan line driver circuit and the signal line driver circuit are formed in an area in which the scan line driver circuit and the signal line driver circuit are mounted.

Display device

Method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display apparatus including: a TFT array substrate having a plurality of scanning lines formed on a transparent insulating substrate by a metal film, a plurality of data lines formed on or beneath the scanning lines so as to be separated by an insulating film in such a manner as to intersect the scanning lines, switching elements that are formed by a semiconductor layer at respective intersections between the scanning lines and the data lines, and pixel electrodes that are formed by a transparent conductive film and electrically connected to the switching elements; and a counter substrate provided with a liquid crystal interposed between the TFT array substrate and the counter substrate; wherein a divisional exposing method is adopted as a patterning method on the TFT array substrate, so that adjacent exposing areas within a display area of the liquid crystal display apparatus have overlapped portions with each other, and so that a shot layout is defined in such a manner that, within the overlapped exposing areas; wherein the portion which comes closer to a predetermined shot area is subjected to a greater distribution of the shot.
