<p>Provided is a liquid crystal display device capable of preventing the occurrence of a residual image. The liquid crystal display device is provided with a first substrate and a second substrate which are disposed to face each other, and a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the first substrate and the second substrate. The first substrate comprises a comb-shaped first electrode including first branch portions and a comb-shaped second electrode including second branch portions, and the first electrode and the second electrode are disposed to planarly face each other in a pixel. The liquid crystal layer includes p-type nematic liquid crystal and is driven by an electric field generated between the first electrode and the second electrode. The p-type nematic liquid crystal is aligned perpendicularly to the first substrate and the second substrate when no voltage is applied. The first branch portions and the second branch portions extend diagonally to boundaries between adjacent pixels, and the intervals between the first electrode and the second electrode in a region surrounding the tip of the first branch portion are substantially equal.</p> |
