Abstract

Pixels of a liquid crystal display device have a polygonal shape long in the longitudinal direction. The pixel is divided into two by a center line, and is line-symmetric with respect to the center line. Pixel electrodes are divided line-symmetrically with respect to the center line. Streaks are formed on the surfaces of the pixel electrodes. Common electrodes are divided line-symmetrically with respect to the center line. Positions of the common electrodes in the lateral direction shift from the pixel electrodes in directions apart from the center line. A film gives a pretilt angle to liquid crystal molecules to tilt the lengthwise direction of the liquid crystal molecules from the vertical direction in the directions in which the common electrodes shift from the pixel electrodes.
