Liquid crystal display device
View Patent ↗The purpose of the invention is to avoid the domain in high definition liquid crystal display devices. The representative structure is as follows. Scan lines extending in a first direction, video signal lines extending in a second direction, a pixel is formed in an area surrounded by the video signal lines and the scan lines, the pixel includes: a thin film transistor, a flattening film that covers the thin film transistor, a first electrode formed on the flattening film, a second electrode formed over the first electrode via an insulating film, and a contact hole that is formed in the flattening film to connect the first electrode and the thin film transistor; the second electrode is formed in common in plural pixels, and has a slit between the video signal lines; wherein the slit is formed continuously in a plurality of pixels arranged in the second direction.
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising:
a scan line extends in a first direction;
a video signal line extends in a direction of tilting angle of θ1 with respect to a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction, and, after crossing the scan line, extends in a direction of tilting angle of −θ1 with respect to the second direction; and
a pixel formed in an area surrounded by scan line and the video signal line,
wherein
the pixel includes: a thin film transistor, a flattening film that covers the thin film transistor, a first electrode formed on the flattening film, a second electrode formed over the first electrode via a first insulating film, a third electrode formed over the second electrode via a second insulating film, and a contact hole that is formed in the flattening film to connect the second electrode and the thin film transistor,
the first electrode is formed in common in plural pixels,
the third electrode is formed in common in plural pixels,
the third electrode has a plurality of slits in parallel to the video signal line,
only one slit is formed in the pixel,
the one slit continuously extends across the scan line, and is formed in common in a plurality of pixels arranged in the second direction, and
an extending direction of the one slit changes its direction at least once in the pixel,
wherein the first electrode and the third electrode are common electrode,
the second electrode is a pixel electrode, and
the one slit overlaps the contact hole and extends across the contact hole.
2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein a first width of the one slit in the first direction at the contact hole is bigger than a second width of the one slit in the first direction at a portion extending along the video signal line.
3. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the contact hole exists in the one slit.
4. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the contact hole does not overlap the one slit.
