Liquid crystal display device
A liquid crystal display device includes sub-pixel electrodes respectively provided to three sub-pixels, and an interelectrode connection portion that connects sub-pixel electrodes adjacent to each other among the sub-pixel electrodes. The interelectrode connection portion is provided in a position where boundaries of liquid crystal alignment directions of sub-pixels adjacent to each other are connected.
1. A liquid crystal display device provided with a plurality of pixels, each of which is composed of divided three sub-pixels, the liquid crystal display device comprising:
sub-pixel electrodes respectively provided to the sub-pixels; and
an interelectrode connection portion that connects sub-pixel electrodes adjacent to each other among the sub-pixel electrodes,
wherein the interelectrode connection portion is provided in a position where boundaries of liquid crystal alignment directions of sub-pixels adjacent to each other are connected,
the three sub-pixels are formed by dividing one pixel into three sub-pixels by source signal lines,
a liquid crystal display panel having an active matrix substrate and a backlight device are included, and
color display is performed by causing the backlight device to emit light of at least red, green, and blue to an entire panel in time division manner and switching display of the liquid crystal display panel in synchronization with the emission of the light.
2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein
the interelectrode connection portion is provided in a central portion of a long side of the sub-pixel.
3. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
structures that control the liquid crystal alignment directions
wherein at least two structures are formed so as to straddle the sub-pixels adjacent to each other, and
the interelectrode connection portion is provided for each two structures and is provided so as to be overlapped with at least part of the structures corresponding to the interelectrode connection portion.
4. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 3 , wherein
the interelectrode connection portion is provided so that a center line of the interelectrode connection portion overlaps with a center line of corresponding structures.
5. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 3 , wherein
a branch extension portion extending along a long side direction of the sub-pixel electrode between the sub-pixel electrodes adjacent to each other is removed from the structure.
