ABSTRACT:
Aspects of the invention can provide a fast-response, homeotropic-mode, liquid crystal display device performing bright and high-quality display having a feature of wide-viewing angle. The liquid crystal display device includes a pair of substrates, each having electrodes on one surface thereof, a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the pair of substrates, having the electrodes interposed therebetween, and a display area having a plurality of dot areas two-dimensionally arrayed therein. The liquid crystal layer can include liquid crystal vertically aligned in an initial state. In a single dot area, each pixel electrode has a plurality of island-shaped portions and connecting portions electrically connecting adjacent two of the island-shaped portions to each other, and the pluralities of island-shaped portions are arrayed in a stagger pattern in plan view.
