Active matrix substrate, display apparatus, and pixel defect correction method

Abstract

An active matrix substrate comprises a TFT () in which a plurality of drain electrodes (and) are provided for a single source electrode (), and at least one of the drain electrodes is electrically connected to the pixel electrode () via the drain outgoing wire. The drain outgoing wire includes a first conductive pattern section comprising (i) a drain outgoing wire common section () and drain outgoing branch sections (and) each of which extends from said drain outgoing common section into each of said drain electrodes, and (ii) a correction connection electrodewhich is partially overlapped with said branch sections of said first conductive pattern section via an insulating layer. The correction connection electrodeis electrically connectable to a plurality of said branch sections by being conducted to said branch sections through said insulating layer. This structure allows pixel defect correction within the pixel.
