PURPOSE:To obtain a liquid crystal display element having high productivity and good contrast by providing an electrode on all of the surface of one substrate and orienting a liquid crystal vertically in areas of parts, which are not related to display patterns, and parts of the substrate facing these parts and orienting the liquid crystal horizontally in the other areas. CONSTITUTION:A common electrode 3 consisting of a transparent conductive film is provided on all of the surface of a lower substrate 2, and a background electrode 4 and segment electrodes 5 consisting of transparent conductive films are provided on all of the surface of an upper substrate 1, gap parts 8 having no electrodes are formed between electrodes 4 and 5. In an execution mode shown in the figure, an area E corresponding to a leading-around line part which is not related to display patterns is formed, and an area F corresponding to a part, to which a voltage is not applied, is formed in the electrode 5. The liquid crystal is oriented vertically in areas C and F having no electrodes in the display region and the area corresponding to the leading-around line part, which is not related to display patterns, in segment electrodes, and the liquid crystal is orientated horizontally in the other areas A and B. |
