Abstract

A number of pixel regions surrounded by scanning signal lines and display signal lines are defined on an array substrate of a liquid crystal display element. Formed in each pixel region are a display pixel electrode extending in parallel with the display signal lines and two opposite electrodes provided on both sides of the display pixel electrode and extending in parallel with the display pixel electrode. Each of the two opposite electrodes is provided at a predetermined interval from the display pixel electrode. An end of the display pixel electrode is layered over an opposite signal line, thereby constituting a first supplemental capacity, and another end thereof is electrically connected to a switching element. An end of each opposite electrode is electrically connected to an opposite signal line. The display pixel electrode and the opposite electrodes are formed by processing the same conductive layer as that forming the display signal lines.
