Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a first substrate and a second substrate; a liquid crystal material sandwiched between the first substrate and the second substrate; neighboring first, second, third and fourth regions being arranged in a rectangular shape and in a clockwise direction; and the first, second, third and fourth regions having a first pixel electrode, a second pixel electrode, a third pixel electrode and a fourth pixel electrode, respectively; wherein the first pixel electrode, second pixel electrode, third pixel electrode and the fourth pixel electrode have a substantially linear shape, and a major portion of the substantially linear shape of the first pixel electrode, the second pixel electrode, the third pixel electrode and the fourth pixel electrode extends in a linear direction which is non-parallel to an extension direction of a drain signal line and to an extension direction of a gate signal line; wherein the first pixel electrode and the third pixel electrode extend in a parallel direction to one another, and the second pixel electrode and the fourth pixel electrode extend in a parallel direction to one another.
