Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device using a wall electrode facilitates enclosing of liquid crystal and improves transmittance. The liquid crystal display device includes a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix. Each of the pixels includes large walls, a small wall, a TFT-side electrode, and a wall electrode. The large walls extend in a long-side direction of the pixel at both ends of the pixel. The small wall extends parallel to the large walls between the large walls. The TFT-side electrode is formed on the small wall. The wall electrode is formed on a side surface of the large wall and formed between the large wall and the small wall. The large walls are separated between the pixels in the long-side direction. The small wall which has a height lower than the large walls is arranged between the separated large walls.

Abstract:
The liquid crystal display device includes a pixel structure provided with a large wall formed along a long side of a pixel with a rectangular plane, a small wall formed at a center of the pixel and extending in the same direction as the large wall, a wall electrode formed on a wall surface of the large wall, a plane electrode formed between the small and large walls, in which the wall electrode and the plane electrode form a pixel electrode, and a common electrode formed on a surface of the small wall. The large wall has a part with an increased thickness at an end part of the pixel. The wall electrode is bent toward the center of the pixel. This structure prevents decrease of reverse twist of liquid crystal at an end part of the pixel as well as generation of domain, thus improving the transmittance of the screen.
