Abstract
In a liquid crystal display panel, connecting wires, having a two-layer structure formed of an indium-tin oxide (ITO) layer and a low-reflection metal layer each, are formed in a image non-display section on an upper substrate, while a shielding layer is formed in the image non-display section on a lower substrate. The gap between the upper and lower substrates is made uniform in both an image display section and the image non-display section by adjusting the thickness of the shielding layer relatively to that of the color filter layer formed in the image display section on the lower substrate or by adjusting the diameter of spacers arranged in the image non-display section relatively to that of spacers arranged in the image display section.
