Summary of the invention
the problem that invention will solve
The liquid crystal display of lateral electric field type possesses the electrode (for example pixel electrode) that is formed with a plurality of seams that are parallel to each other, and uses this electrode to produce transverse electric field.In addition, this panel transmissivity according to the width (L) of electrode (linear parts) between the width (S) of seam, seam and they and (S+L) change.Generally, when L and S sum diminish, panel transmissivity uprises.But, in manufacturing process, there is restriction, therefore can not make L and S be less than setting, there is limitation in the actual panel transmissivity obtaining.This is the reason due to below.Be because: the minimum widith of the pattern that the device that the minimum widith of the pattern that can form on the photomask using in the photo-mask process when forming seam and in fact utilizing is used in photo-mask process can form is restricted.
Below, the liquid crystal display of the FFS pattern of the manner of comparison 1 of studying with reference to the inventor, describes the problem of existing FFS pattern.Figure 10 is the schematic top plan view of active-matrix substrate of liquid crystal display of the FFS pattern of manner of comparison 1.In addition in Fig. 9 of patent documentation 2 and Fig. 6 of patent documentation 3, illustrate and the similar mode of manner of comparison 1.
The liquid crystal display of manner of comparison 1 possesses active-matrix substrate (array base palte) 510, the relative substrate (not shown) relative with array base palte and the liquid crystal layer (not shown) of being located at the horizontal alignment type between two substrates.As shown in figure 10, array base palte 510 comprises data bus 513, grid bus 551, TFT553, common electrode 515, is formed at the dielectric film (not shown) on common electrode 515 and is formed at the pixel electrode 517 on this dielectric film.The initial orientation direction of liquid crystal molecule, the direction of orientation while not applying voltage are set as the above-below direction of Figure 10.
Each pixel electrode 517 is formed with a plurality of seams 530 that are parallel to each other, and common electrode 515 is relative with seam 530.By being controlled at the voltage applying between pixel electrode 517 and common electrode 515, control the orientation of liquid crystal molecule, say and control rotation in more detail.Pixel electrode 517 comprises a plurality of linear parts 518 of being parallel to each other and by the interconnective coupling part 519,520 of linear parts.
Seam 530 has laterally zygomorphic shape, and seam 530 comprises respectively: straight line portion (principal part) 531,532; Principal part 531,532 is interconnected, 2 straight line portioies are connected to V word shape and the part (V word section) 533 that forms; And be located at respectively the linear parts (secondary portion) 534,535 between principal part 531,532 and coupling part 519,520.Like this, seam 530 is respectively between secondary portion 534 and principal part 531, between principal part 531 and V word section 533, between principal part 532 and V word section 533 and crooked between principal part 532 and secondary portion 535, V word section 533 also comprises 1 bend, so seam 530 has respectively 5 bends.In addition, the angle forming with respect to above-below direction of V word section 533 and secondary portion 534,535 is set to such an extent that be greater than principal part 531,532 itself.
