Abstract

A liquid crystal display element of the present invention is prepared according to a top-gate structure in which a gate electrode is formed on a semiconductor film. The liquid crystal display element is provided with a first substrate and a second substrate each having an orientation film. A plurality of linear electrodes are formed on the first substrate so as to apply a voltage between the electrodes. The orientation film of the first substrate is oriented in parallel with the longitudinal direction of the linear electrodes.
