To control a gradient of an electric field applied between electrodes that drive a liquid crystal and to apply an optimal electric field between the electrodes by increasing an interval between the electrodes.

A liquid crystal display device includes: a first electrode 101 formed over a substrate 100; an insulating film 102 formed over the substrate 100 and the first electrode 101; a semiconductor film 103 formed over the insulating film 102 and including a source, a channel region and a drain of a thin film transistor 121; a second electrode 112 including first opening patterns 112a, 112b, located at an upper layer than the semiconductor film 103 and over the first electrode 101; and a liquid crystal 114 provided over the second electrode 112.
