Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device comprising:an electrode substrate including at least first and second elongated electrodes, each elongated electrode having a short side and a long side, the long sides of the first and second elongated electrodes facing each other and being spaced from each other at a distance, the first and second electrodes being electrically isolated from each other so that a potential difference can be established between the first and second electrodes, producing an electric field between the first and second electrodes; a counter substrate facing the electrode substrate; a liquid crystal material sandwiched between the electrode substrate and the counter substrate; and a conductive member for adjusting an electric field between the first and second elongated electrodes to produce a visual display, the conductive member being disposed between the first and second elongated electrodes and electrically isolated from the first and second elongated electrodes.
