Liquid crystal display having oblique pixel edge line segment

摘要

A liquid crystal display includes: first and second substrates placed opposite each other; first and second electrodes each provided on one face of the first and second electrodes extending in first and second directions intersecting with each other; and a liquid crystal layer provided between the one face of the first substrate and the one face of the second substrate. A pixel is formed in a region where the first and second electrodes intersect, and a pixel edge of the pixel has a line segment which is oblique relative to the first direction. The first and second substrates are respectively subject to alignment treatment, and the liquid crystal layer is a substantial vertical alignment having a twisted structure, and an alignment direction of liquid crystal molecules at a substantial center in a layer thickness direction and the oblique line segment are not orthogonal.

1. A liquid crystal display comprising:
a first substrate and a second substrate placed opposite each other; a first electrode which is provided on one face of the first substrate and which extends in a first direction; a second electrode which is provided on one face of the second substrate and which extends in a second direction that intersects with the first direction; and a liquid crystal layer provided between the one face of the first substrate and the one face of the second substrate, wherein a pixel is formed in a region where the first electrode and the second electrode intersect, wherein a pixel edge of the pixel has a line segment which is oblique relative to the first direction, wherein at least one of the first substrate and the second substrate is subject to alignment treatment, wherein the liquid crystal layer has a substantial vertical alignment having a twisted structure, and an alignment direction of liquid crystal molecules at a substantial center in a layer thickness direction and the oblique line segment are not orthogonal, and wherein the oblique line segment forms an oblique angle of from greater than 0° to 15° or below relative to the second direction.
