A pixel includes a plurality of first linear alignment regulating structures (22) provided on the liquid crystal layer side of a first substrate and a plurality of second linear alignment regulating structures (44) provided on the liquid crystal layer side of a second substrate. The first and second linear alignment regulating structures each have a first component (22a, 44a) extending along a first axis and a second component (22b, 44b) extending along a second axis which is different from the first axis, the second linear alignment regulating structures being linear dielectric protrusions. The liquid crystal display device further includes a connection dielectric protrusion (45a, 45b, 45c) for interconnecting two linear dielectric protrusions which belong to pixels adjoining each other and which are not collinear. The connection dielectric protrusion has a plurality of edges, the plurality of edges including at least one edge extending in a direction which is different from the direction of an edge of the first electrode (21) and different from the direction of an edge of the linear dielectric protrusion. According to the present invention, an enhanced design freedom can be obtained without deteriorating the display quality of an MVA-mode liquid crystal display device. |
