Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device comprising:a first substrate having a plurality of first electrodes formed on one surface side and a first vertical alignment film for covering the plurality of first electrodes; a second substrate having light shielding films formed on a surface side to oppose said one surface side of the first substrate to be arranged in regions which correspond to regions between the plurality of first electrodes on the first substrate, a plurality of color filters formed on the second substrate and arranged to oppose respective first electrodes on the first substrate, a second electrode, formed over the light shielding films and the plurality of color filters, a first projection pattern of insulating material formed on the second electrode, and a second vertical alignment film covering the second electrode and at least the first projection pattern on the second electrode, whereby top end portions of the first projection pattern are formed over the light shielding films and come into contact with the vertical alignment film of the first substrate; and a liquid crystal sealed between the first substrate and the second substrate and having a negative dielectric anisotropy.
