Abstract

An array substrate (10) is provided with a pixel electrode (3) disposed in a region defined by two adjacent gate wirings (1) and two adjacent source wirings (2), a switching element (5) for switching a voltage applied to the pixel electrode (3) from the source wiring (2) based on a signal voltage supplied from the gate wiring (1), a common wiring (8) arranged between the two adjacent gate wirings (1) and a common electrode (4) being electrically connected to the common wiring (8) and generating an electric field between the pixel electrode (3) whereto a voltage is applied, wherein the pixel electrode (1) comprises a first pixel electrode (1a) and a second pixel electrode (2a), and the opposing electrode (2) comprises a first opposing electrode (1b) and a second opposing electrode (2b), wherein a first region generates an electric field between the first pixel electrode (1a) and the first opposing electrode (2a) whose light transmittance is lower than that of the first pixel electrode (1a) and a second region generates an electric field between the second pixel electrode (1b) and the second opposing electrode (2b) whose light transmittance is higher than that of the second pixel ele…
