Abstract

An active matrix type liquid crystal display apparatus includes a liquid crystal layer disposed between a device substrate and an opposite substrate wherein the device substrate includes: a plurality of switching elements disposed at a plurality of locations determined by data signal interconnections and scanning signal interconnections; and a plurality of pixel electrodes disposed at locations corresponding to the plurality of switching elements, the plurality of pixel elements being connected to the corresponding switching elements, and wherein the opposite substrate includes an opposite electrode disposed opposite to the pixel electrodes, the active matrix type liquid crystal display apparatus being characterized in that: a light shielding layer having electrical conductivity is disposed at least partially on the data signal interconnections or the scanning signal interconnections via an insulating layer; the pixel electrodes are disposed on the light shielding layer via a second insulating layer; and a voltage is applied to the light shielding layer.
