LIQUID CRYSTAL PANEL AND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

A liquid crystal panel comprises: an active matrix substrate (10) wherein a pixel electrode (12) is provided for each pixel (8); a facing substrate (20) which is arranged so as to face the active matrix substrate (10) and which shares common electrodes with the same; a liquid crystal layer which is sandwiched between the active matrix substrate (10) and the facing substrate (20) and has negative dielectric anisotropy; and a pair of vertically oriented films (14, 24) which are provided on the active matrix substrate (10) and the facing substrate (20) respectively. The pixel electrodes (12) comprise sub-pixel electrodes (12a, 12b), and a connection electrode (15) which connects the sub-pixel electrodes (12a, 12b). Each sub-pixel electrode (12a, 12b) has trunk lines (17) and branch lines (18) partitioned off by a plurality of slits (16), and neighbouring sub-pixel electrodes (12a, 12b) within the pixels (8) are connected by the plurality of connection electrodes (15) at a plurality of places.
