Abstract
A liquid crystal display device comprising: a peripheral electrodethat is formed around the outside of a display regionon a liquid crystal paneland that generates an orientation state that is equivalent to that of the display region; and an inverted electrodethat is formed around the outside of the peripheral electrodeand that generates an orientation state that has polarity opposite to that of the display region; wherein the peripheral electrodeand the inverted electrodehave bipectinate construction and are arranged on both sides of a non-oriented buffer region. Orientation defects that are generated in a seal are trapped inside the buffer regiondue to the existence of the peripheral electrodeand inverted electrodethat have different growth directions, so the orientation defects do not intrude into the display region
