Patent ID: 8089596

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising: a plurality of pixels; and vertical alignment liquid crystal which is sealed between a first substrate having a pixel electrode and a second substrate having a common electrode, wherein each of the pixels has a shape in which a column direction is longer than a row direction; each of the pixels is divided into a first pixel region and a second pixel region having different areas by a boundary extending in the row direction and bent in a V shape; the first pixel region is formed such that an end portion thereof defined by a vertex of the boundary which is bent in a V shape cuts into the second pixel region; an alignment of liquid crystal of the first pixel region and an alignment of liquid crystal of the second pixel region are different; and in the first pixel region, the liquid crystals are aligned toward a first center line in the first pixel region, and in the second pixel region, the liquid crystals are aligned toward a second center line in the second pixel region.
