Abstract
An active matrix substrate includes a plurality of pairs of a TFT including a gate electrode and a gate insulating film formed on an insulating substrate, a channel layer made of at least one of a crystalline semiconductor film and an amorphous semiconductor film, and a source electrode and a drain electrode, and a pixel electrode arranged in an array. The channel layer is formed within a formation area of the gate electrode, the source electrode and the drain electrode are formed within a formation area of the channel layer, a source line is formed above the gate insulating film in a position spaced from the gate electrode, and the source line is connected to the source electrode through a connection line made of an oxide conductive film formed on top of the source electrode and extending from the top of the source electrode.
