<p>A liquid-crystal display apparatus comprises a pair of substrates 12, 14 having electrodes 18, 22 and vertical alignment layers 20, 24, a liquid crystal 16 having a negative anisotropy of dielectric constant inserted between the substrates, linearly arranged structures 30, 32; 44, 46 arranged in or on each substrate for controlling the alignment of the liquid crystal; and polarisers 26, 28 arranged respectively on the outside of the pair of substrates. One of the polarisers has an absorption axis displaced by a predetermined angle (a) from an orientation rotated 45 degrees with respect to the orientation of the linearly arranged structures. Also disclosed are shielding areas for the TFTs, and measures for controlling the alignment of the liquid crystal.</p> |
