LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid crystal display device which is stably operated without necessitating high accuracy in alignment between an array substrate and a counter substrate even when an MVA mode is adopted.

SOLUTION: The liquid crystal display device is provided with an array substrate comprising pixel electrodes 8, a counter substrate comprising a common electrode and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the substrates. The array substrate comprises a tilt controlling part controlling tilt directions of a liquid crystal molecules to divide a pixel region into a plurality of domains having tilt directions of the liquid crystal molecules different from each other by forming fluctuation of an electric field where intense and weak electric field regions are alternately arranged in various directions nearly parallel to each substrate in a pixel region consisting of the liquid crystal layer between the pixel electrodes 8 and the counter electrode as voltage is being applied. The tilt controlling part has a plurality of domain division patterns SL dividing the pixel electrodes 8 into a plurality of sub electrode parts 8S and regulating an anisotropic distribution of the intense and the weak electric field regions to a plurality of the sub electrode parts 8S. A plurality of the sub electrode parts are mutually connected by bridge electrodes BR.
