Abstract

A liquid crystal panel includes: a first substrate including multiple pixel electrodes; a liquid crystal layer; and a second substrate. The domains in the display unit region located in an nth row are arranged in an order of a first domain, a second domain, a third domain, and a fourth domain. Each of the pixel electrodes is provided with multiple fine slits parallel to the alignment vectors of the respective domains. Each of the pixel electrodes includes a region where the fine slits do not exist, at both ends of the pixel electrode parallel to the row direction and at one or both of ends of the pixel electrode parallel to the column direction. A portion having a largest width of the region where the fine slits do not exist is included in one or both of the ends of the pixel electrode parallel to the row direction.
