Liquid crystal display device with wide viewing angle

摘要

In an LCD device of an IPS (In-Plane Switching) mode having two alignment films which are subjected to individual aligning treatments and between which liquid crystal molecules are interposed and sealed, the aligning treatments of the two alignment films are carried out in the same directional orientation to put the molecules into a state of splay alignment. Specifically, parts of the molecules adjacent to the two alignment films have pretilt angles each of which has an absolute value not smaller than two degrees due to influence of the aligning treatments. Therefore, an appearance of undesirable light points is suppressed in the manufacturing the LCD device, and the LCD device has a good yield.
