Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display apparatus comprising: a first substrate including a first electrode and an insulating layer arranged so as to cover an edge of the first electrode; a second substrate including a second electrode facing the first electrode and a second slit from which the second electrode is removed and extending in a first direction; and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, the liquid crystal layer being formed of a liquid crystal material having negative dielectric constant anisotropy, wherein the first electrode includes a plurality of first slits extending inwardly in a second direction crossing the first direction from the edge of the first electrode, and the insulating layer and said plurality of first slits are arranged such that a position of an end of the insulating layer and a position of a tip to which the first slit extends are apart from each other in a region between the edge of the first electrode and the second slit in a direction in which the first slit extends.
