Abstract
In the liquid crystal display panel, when no voltage is applied to a liquid crystal layer, a first tilt angle of liquid crystal molecules adjacent to a first vertical alignment film with respect to the first vertical alignment film and a second tilt angle of liquid crystal molecules adjacent to a second vertical alignment film with respect to the second vertical alignment film differ from each other. Any one of the first vertical alignment film and the second vertical alignment film is a photo-alignment film subjected to alignment process such that a plurality of domains, the alignment vectors of which differ from each other, are formed in a region of a display unit. The display unit includes the plurality of domains along a first direction of the display unit in a plan view, when a voltage is applied to the liquid crystal layer.
