| 1. An active matrix display device comprising:
a thin film transistor formed over a substrate;
a gate bus line, wherein a first portion of the gate bus line is a gate electrode of the thin film transistor;
a source bus line crossing at a second portion of the gate bus line;
a common electrode comprising a transparent conductive film, and formed over the thin film transistor; and
a pixel electrode partially overlapped with the common electrode,
wherein the gate bus line and the source bus line are overlapped with the common electode,
wherein a first width of the gate bus line at the first portion is narrower than a second width of the gate bus line at the
second portion, and
wherein the first width of the gate bus line is measured along a line parallel to a line along which the second width of the
gate bus line is measured.
