To reduce the number of necessary processes in the manufacturing processes of thin-film transistors, and also to prevent an abnormal potential from occurring by the cause of current leaking from data lines.
This transistor is mounted on a prescribed substrate and is also provide with a gate electrode 30 formed in a prescribed pattern, a semiconductor layer formed corresponding to the patterning of the gate electrode 30, a pixel electrode 25 formed via this semiconductor layer, and a signal electrode formed via the semiconductor layer and also arranged with a prescribed gap from the pixel electrode 25. Then, this signal electrode is arranged at such a position that crosstalk current is prevented from flowing into the pixel electrode 25 from adjacent signal lines 32b, 32c via the semiconductor layer.
