Abstract
A lateral electric field type liquid crystal display device includes substrates, liquid crystal put between the substrates, scan lines and data lines arranged on one of the substrates, and pixels each of whose boundary is defined by two scan lines and two data lines. In each pixel, a strip-shaped electrode and a common electrode are formed with an insulating film put thereamong, and the pixel electrode is arranged to extend close along one of the data lines. In each pixel, a part of the common electrode covering one of the data lines overlaps with the pixel electrode, the pixel electrode partially projects from the overlapping area, and a side edge of the projecting part of the pixel electrode is separated from a side edge of a part of the common electrode covering the other data line so as to generate a lateral electric field to drive the liquid crystal.
