Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

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.
