Liquid crystal display device having OCB mode liquid crystal layer

摘要

A liquid crystal display device includes: a pixel electrode located on a lower substrate; a lower alignment layer located on the pixel electrode and having a predetermined alignment direction (or aligned in a predetermined direction); an upper substrate located apart from the lower substrate and having an opposite surface facing the lower substrate; an opposite electrode located on the opposite surface; an upper alignment layer located on the opposite electrode and having the predetermined alignment direction of the lower alignment layer; an upper protrusion line located between the upper substrate and the upper alignment layer and arranged in a direction crossing the predetermined alignment direction; and an optically compensated bend (OCB) mode liquid crystal layer located between the lower alignment layer and the upper alignment layer.
