Abstract
An active-matrix substrate includes: a base substrate; source lines; gate lines; thin-film transistors; and pixel electrodes. Each transistor is a bottom-gate thin-film transistor. The source lines are arranged under the gate lines with a first interlayer insulating film interposed and are electrically connected to the respective source electrodes of their associated thin-film transistors through contact holes cut through the first interlayer insulating film.
