Abstract
A liquid crystal display device includes a first substrate having at least one first electrode formed thereon, and a second substrate having a plurality of second electrodes formed thereon and opposed to the first electrode, a matrix display section being formed which has a plurality of pixel electrodes constituted of the first and second electrodes and arranged in a matrix of rows and columns. The second substrate is opposed to the first substrate with a predetermined gap therebetween. First and second alignment films respectively are formed on the opposed inner surfaces of the first and second substrates. A liquid crystal is sealed between the first and second substrates. An aligning treatment is executed on the first alignment film in a first direction that intersects, at an angle of 5° to 10°, one of a row direction and a column direction of the matrix display section.
