Abstract
A liquid crystal panel includes: a liquid crystal containing liquid crystal molecules; a plurality of pixel electrodes that is capable of applying electric fields to the liquid crystal; a common electrode opposite to the plurality of the pixel electrodes through the liquid crystal; a first rubbing member that aligns the liquid crystal molecules in a first direction at an interface of the liquid crystal on a side of the pixel electrode; and a second rubbing member that aligns the liquid crystal molecules in a second direction at an interface of the liquid crystal on a side of the common electrode, wherein a transparent insulator layer is formed on an area on a side in a direction orthogonal to the first direction in the pixel electrode.
