Abstract
A conducting layer () is formed in a shape of a grid having a predetermined width of lines extending along the first direction (horizontal direction in the drawing) and the second direction (vertical direction in the drawing). In a region that, when seen in planar view, overlaps those lines of the conducting layer () which extend along the first direction, lines of an insulating light-blocking layer () that are wider than those of the conduction layer () are arranged at predetermined intervals along the second direction. The conducting layer () is broken at predetermined places in a region that overlaps the insulating light-blocking layerwhen seen in plane view. This makes it possible to achieve a liquid crystal display device including a touch panel substrate that has a high aperture ratio and that can suppress leakage of light through cuts in a conducting layer.
