Abstract:
A homeotropic alignment type liquid crystal display device comprising:first and second substrates confronting each other; first and second bus lines arranged in mutually perpendicular directions on the second substrate; liquid crystals provided between the first and second substrates; and first, second and third projecting structures respectively made of an insulator and restricting alignment of the liquid crystals, said first projecting structures having a sloping surface which is inclined with respect to the first substrate and being provided on the first substrate in parallel with the first bus lines, said second projecting structures having a sloping surface which is inclined with respect to the second substrate and being provided on the second substrate in parallel with the first bus lines, said third projecting structures having a sloping surface which is inclined with respect to at least one of the first and second substrates, and being provided on at least one of the first and second substrates with an arrangement different from the first and second projecting structures.
