Patent attributes
When a pixel portion and a driver circuit are formed over one substrate and a counter electrode is formed over an entire surface of a counter substrate, the driver circuit may be adversely affected by an optimized voltage of the counter electrode. A semiconductor device according to the present invention has a structure in which: a liquid crystal layer is provided between a pair of substrates; one of the substrates is provided with a pixel electrode and a driver circuit; the other of the substrates is a counter substrate which is provided with two counter electrode layers in different potentials; and one of the counter electrode layers overlaps with the pixel electrode with the liquid crystal layer therebetween and the other of the counter electrode layers overlaps with the driver circuit with the liquid crystal layer therebetween. An oxide semiconductor layer is used for the driver circuit.
