Abstract

A liquid crystal display device includes a plurality of arranged pixels. Each of the pixels includes: a first substrate and a second substrate; a first electrode provided on a counter face of the first substrate, the counter face facing the second substrate; a second electrode provided on a counter face of the second substrate, the counter face facing the first substrate; and a liquid crystal layer that contains liquid crystal molecules, and is sandwiched between the first substrate and the second substrate. The liquid crystal molecules are given a pre-tilt. The first electrode includes a base layerthat contains a plurality of recesses and protrusions, and transparent conductive material layersand. The first transparent conductive material layerconnected to a first power supply portion is formed on protrusion top facesof the base layer. The second transparent conductive material layerconnected to a second power supply portion is formed on recess bottom facesof the base layer. The first transparent conductive material layerand the second transparent conductive material layerare separated from each other.
