Abstract
Provided is a liquid crystal display apparatus employing a drive method whereby nonuniform electric field is not generated in pixels. This liquid crystal display apparatus is provided with a first substrate, a first electrode, a second electrode, a second substrate, a common electrode, a counter electrode, a liquid crystal layer, and a drive unit. The drive unit executes drive operations including: operations of setting the potential of the first electrode at a low level, the potential of the second electrode at a high level, and the potential of the counter electrode at the high level; operations of setting the potential at the high level, the potential at the low level, and the potential at the high level; operations of setting the potential at the low level, the potential at the high level, and the potential at the low level; and operations of setting the potential at the high level, the potential at the low level, and the potential at the low level.
