There is provided a liquid crystal display including (a) a first substrate with at least one recessed portion, (b) a second substrate spaced away from and facing the first substrate, (c) a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the first and second substrates, (d) a first electrode formed on the first substrate at an upper surface facing the liquid crystal layer, (e) a second electrode, at least part of which is, formed on the recessed portion of the first substrate at a surface facing the liquid crystal layer, and cooperating with the first electrode to form a pixel, the first and second electrodes generating an electric field therebetween to thereby implement in-plane switching, and (f) an interlayer insulating film formed at least below the second electrode, but not formed at least below the first electrode, a dielectric layer formed between at least a part of an upper surface of the first electrode and the liquid crystal layer being designed to have a capacitance per a unit area, almost equal to a capacitance per a unit area of a dielectric layer formed between at least a part of an upper surface and the liquid crystal layer. In the above-mentioned liquid crystal display, since a dielectric distance between the first electrode and the liquid crystal layer is almost equal to a dielectric distance between the second electrode and the liquid crystal layer, it is possible to balance flexo-electric effects on the first and second electrodes, which ensures suppression in generation of after-images.
