Abstract
A liquid crystal display apparatus in which an arrangement possibly susceptible to degradation in display quality by a miss shot of a laser used for turning amorphous silicon into polycrystalline silicon is avoided and a narrow peripheral frame can be attained. A gate interconnection for transistors in a driving circuit area is arranged along a folded line having two lines extending in two different directions and a bent portion. Channel regions of the transistors are arranged along the two lines, such that the channel regions do not overlap the bent portion.
