LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

An object of the present invention is to apply a sufficient electrical field to a liquid crystal material in a horizontal electrical field liquid crystal display device typified by a fringe field switching (FFS) type. In the horizontal electrical field liquid crystal display, an electrical field is applied to a liquid crystal material right above a common electrode or a pixel electrode using plural pairs of electrodes rather than one pair of electrodes. One pair of electrodes includes a comb-shaped common electrode and a comb-shaped pixel electrode. Another pair of electrodes includes a common electrode provided in a pixel portion and the comb-shaped pixel electrode.
