1. A liquid crystal display apparatus comprising:
a liquid crystal panel having a pixel region in which a plurality of pixels are provided in a matrix in a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; a pixel electrode and a common electrode that apply a transverse electric field to a liquid crystal layer such that an image is displayed in said pixel region with light emitted through said liquid crystal layer; a plurality of first wire lines disposed in a spaced relationship from each other in the second direction with regard to the plurality of pixels so as to define a plurality of pixels juxtaposed in the second direction; a plurality of second wire lines disposed in a spaced relationship from each other in the first direction with regard to the plurality of pixels so as to define a plurality of pixels juxtaposed in the first direction; and a color filter layer comprising a red filter layer, a green filter layer and a blue filter layer juxtaposed with each other in the first direction, wherein,
(a) each of said second wire lines includes an inclined portion extending in a direction different from the first and second directions in said pixel region and inclined with respect to the second direction,(b) said pixel electrode includes (1) two trunk portions extending in the first direction, (2) a plurality of branch portions extending in a third direction in said pixel region, each of the plurality of branch portions inclined in a same direction, and (3) each end of the plurality of branch portions connected to a respective trunk portion,(c) each of said inclined portion and said branch portions is inclined in the same direction with respect to the second direction,(d) the common electrode is formed over an entire display region including all of the pixel regions,(e) the red filter layer, the green filter layer and the blue filter layer each extend in an incline in the same direction as the second direction and aligned with the branch portions, and(f) the inclined portion of the second wire is formed on the side opposite to the pixel electrode with respect to the common electrode in a direction of thickness of the liquid crystal panel. |
