Abstract

A liquid crystal display capable of accommodating a common gate line in a proper position during the manufacture thereof has two transparent substrates opposed across a liquid crystal; a set of parallel gate lines extending in an x-direction on the surface of one of the transparent substrates, which faces the liquid crystal; a set of parallel drain lines extending in the y-direction on the surface and being insulated from the gate lines; and a gate scanning driver circuit connected with the individual gate lines outside of the display region in which the gate line set and the drain line set intersect. The common gate line is formed over a peripheral surface portion of the one transparent substrate, which surface portion is to be cut off at a subsequent manufacturing step, and is mounted on a region opposite to the gate scanning driver circuit on the other side of the display region therefrom for connecting the individual gate lines of the gate line set in common.
