Abstract
A liquid crystal display device including a first substrate on which a first electrode and a bus line for transmitting a signal to the first electrode are formed; a second substrate on which a second electrode is formed; and domain defining projections provided on one of the first substrate and the second substrate. A plurality of domain defining slits are provided on the electrode on the other of the first substrate and the second substrate to be aligned on a straight line, and liquid crystal having negative dielectric anisotropy is sealed between the first substrate and the second substrate. A width of a bus line opposite side end of a first slit of the plurality of slits, that is positioned closest to the bus line, is set smaller than a width of a bus line side end of a second slit positioned adjacent to the first slit.
