Abstract
A liquid crystal display apparatus has a pair of substrates and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the pair of substrates, one of the pair of substrates having an electrode structure composed of a plurality of electrodes for generating an electric field having a dominant component parallel to the substrate in the liquid crystal layer, a protective film formed on the electrode structure, and an alignment film formed on the protective film, and the thickness of the protective film is greater than the thickness of the electrode in contact with the protective film by more than 0.4 .mu.m.
