Abstract

A liquid crystal display device comprises two substrates opposed to each other, a comb-shaped wall electrode formed to correspond to each pixel of an array defined by vertical and horizontal wires formed on the substrate, the comb-shaped wall electrode having a plurality of elemental electrodes, major surfaces of each of the elemental electrodes being substantially perpendicular to the surfaces of the two substrates, and the major surfaces of adjacent ones of the elemental electrodes constituting counter electrodes to each other, and a liquid crystal filled in a gap of the comb-shaped wall electrode provided between the two substrates.
