Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device having a plurality of pixels aligned in a first direction and a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, the liquid crystal display device comprising: a color filter having formed on a substrate light shielding layers, and a plurality of colored layers which partially overlap the light shielding layers in at least the first direction; a TFT substrate having a plurality of light shielding sections which are positioned so as to oppose the light shielding layers, and extend in the second direction; and liquid crystal sealed between the color filter and the TFT substrate, wherein ridges extending in the second direction are formed by the plurality of colored layers overlapping the light shielding layers in the first direction, at least upper edges of the ridges are shielded from light by the plurality of light shielding sections, and a difference between a distance between the upper edges of a pair of the ridges which are shielded from light by a corresponding one of the plurality of light shielding sections, and a width of the corresponding one of the plurality of light shielding sections in the first direction, is greater than or equal to 8 μm.
