Abstract
An active matrix substrate includes a substrate; gate lines arranged on the substrateand extend in a first direction; source lines Si arranged on the substrateand extend in a second direction that is different from the first direction; transistorsarranged in correspondence to points of intersection between the gate lines and the source lines, respectively, and are connected with the gate lines and the source lines; and an insulating layer. At least either the gate lines and the source lines are connected with electrodes of the transistors via contact holes in the insulating layer, and are formed to satisfy at least either i) having a greater film thickness or ii) being formed with a material having a smaller specific resistance, as compared with the electrodes of the transistors to which the lines are connected via the contact holes in the insulating layer.
