To obtain an active substrate with which the leakage between the terminals for connection to external substrates is prevented by forming org. thin-film patterns between terminals and a display device formed by using the same.
Interlayer insulating films are composed of org. thin-film patterns formed on a display section and on a part respectively of broad parts 1a for gate wiring terminals and broad parts 2a for source wiring terminals and the org. thin-film patterns 10 extended from org. thin-film pattern body parts 7 on both sides respectively across the gate wiring terminals 8 and the source wiring terminals 9. The org. thin-film patterns are also formed between the adjacent terminals connected to external terminals. Even if the org. thin films exist in the positions corresponding to the lower side of pixel electrodes, the org. thin films are formed between the terminals as well and, therefore, the ITO films on both org. thin films are nearly simultaneously etched away. Then, the ITO films do not remain between the terminals. The occurrence of the leakage defects between the terminals is prevented without complicating the production stages.
