Abstract
An IPS type liquid crystal display device capable of preventing a blanking phenomenon generated to the periphery of a screen caused by charging at the inside of a counter substrate due to the effect of a gate voltage applied to scanning line leads. In a pixel area A constituting a display region, a pixel electrode is disposed by way of an insulative film above a common electrode formed in a planar shape. In a scanning line lead area, the scanning line leads have first scanning line leads and second scanning lines formed in different layers for decreasing the width of the scanning line lead area. The scanning line leads are covered with a shield electrode formed coplanar with the common electrode. Since the shield electrode is extended as far as a portion below a sealant, the shielding effect is enhanced. Further, since the insulative film is present between the sealant and the shield electrode, the sealing effect is not deteriorated.
