Abstract

A transmissive-type liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate, a second substrate, and a liquid crystal layer. The first substrate includes a base material, a pixel electrode, a light-shielding body, a first insulator that overlaps the light-shielding body in a plan view and is disposed between the base material and the pixel electrode, a second insulator that overlaps the pixel electrode in the plan view and is disposed in contact with the first insulator, and a transmissive lens member that overlaps the pixel electrode in the plan view, is disposed between the base material and the second insulator, and has a surface on the base material side including a convex lens surface. The second insulator has a refractive index greater than a refractive index of the first insulator. A surface of the second insulator on the pixel electrode side includes a concave lens surface.
