Abstract
A normally closed liquid crystal display device using an in-plane switching mode prevented from light leakage caused by spacer beads and having a high contrast ratio can be produced by making a pretilt angle between an alignment control film and liquid crystals 4° or less and controlling a light leakage centering the spacer in 4-divided shapes; or by placing a film provided with a liquid crystal alignment controlling function by irradiation with polarized light between the spacer and a liquid crystal layer, the spacer being present in a pair of substrates.
