Abstract
An active matrix substrate of the present invention includes: a first signal line and a second signal line which are aligned in a column direction in which the first signal line and the second signal line extend; a first transistor and a second transistor; and a first electrode and a second electrode, the first signal line being connected via the first transistor to the first electrode, and the second signal line being connected via the second transistor to the second electrode, and the first signal line having a first end which is one of both ends of the first signal line and faces the second signal line, the first end including a tapered part which is tapered toward the second signal line. This makes it possible to prevent a leakage defect from occurring between two signal lines which are aligned in a direction in which the two signal lines extend.
