Abstract
An active matrix liquid crystal display device having a pair of substrates, a liquid crystal layer, scanning lines and video signal lines provided in a matrix manner, at least one pixel electrode and at least one common electrode. The at least one pixel electrode is bent so as to be inclined in first and second directions which are symmetrical relative to the alignment direction of the liquid crystal. The first direction of the pixel electrode is at a plus predetermined angle relative to the alignment direction, while the second direction of the pixel electrode is at a minus predetermined angle relative to the alignment direction.
