PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide such a liquid crystal display device that the array state of liquid crystal molecules when a voltage is applied becomes stable in a short time and the visual field angle is wide. SOLUTION: This liquid crystal device has a pixel electrode 44 arranged on a 1st substrate 1, a counter electrode 10 arranged on a 2nd substrate 7, and liquid crystal 13 with negative dielectric constant anisotropy charged between the 1st substrate 1 and 2nd substrate 7; and horizontal alignment films 11 and 12 having the same alignment direction are laminated on the 1st substrate 1 and 2nd substrate 7. One pixel is divided into areas B1 to B4, an end part 4a of the pixel electrode 4 and an end part 10a of the counter electrode 10 are arranged shifting from each other by the areas B1 to B4, and when a voltage is applied, an oblique electric field is produced between those end parts 4a and 10a. The liquid crystal molecules 14 which are horizontally aligned in the absence of an electric field have their oblique direction and rotation direction restricted by the oblique electric field and are aligned differently by the areas B1 to B4. |
