Abstract
A liquid crystal display device including a first substrate, a second substrateplaced to face the first substrate, a liquid crystal layerinterposed between the first and second substrates, a first electrodeformed on the first substrate, a second electrodeformed on the second substrate, an interlayer insulating filmplaced between the first electrode and the first substrate, and a wall structureformed integrally with the interlayer insulating film. The liquid crystal display device has a plurality of pixels each including the first electrode, the second electrode and the liquid crystal layer interposed between the first and second electrodes. A shading region surrounds each of the plurality of pixels, and the wall structure is placed regularly in the shading region. A groove structuremay be formed in place of the wall structure.
