Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device, comprising: a liquid crystal provided between a pixel electrode and a counter electrode to which a drive voltage is applied; a domain restriction structure for restricting an alignment of the liquid crystal so that the alignment of the liquid crystal is substantially vertical when non-voltage is applied, substantially parallel when a predetermined voltage is applied, and inclined when a smaller voltage than the predetermined voltage is applied, and further a direction that the alignment of the liquid crystal is inclined is set to be a plurality of parts in each pixel when a voltage smaller than the predetermined voltage is applied; and a drive circuit in which when the pixel is changed from a first transmittance to a second transmittance greater than the first transmittance, a voltage greater than a first target drive voltage corresponding to the second transmittance is applied between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode in a first period of changing to the second transmittance, and the first target display voltage is applied between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode in a second period after the first period.
