Summary of the invention
the problem that invention will solve
The liquid crystal display of lateral electric field type possesses the electrode (such as pixel electrode) being formed with the multiple seams be 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) and change.Generally, when L and S sum diminishes, panel transmissivity uprises.But having restriction in manufacturing process, L and S therefore can not be made to be less than setting, there is limitation in the actual panel transmissivity obtained.This is due to reason below.Be because: the minimum widith of the minimum widith of the pattern that in the photo-mask process when forming seam, the photomask that uses can be formed and the pattern that in fact utilizes the device used in photo-mask process to be formed is restricted.
Below, with reference to the liquid crystal display of the FFS mode of the manner of comparison 1 of the present inventor's research, the problem of existing FFS mode is described.Figure 10 is the schematic top plan view of the active-matrix substrate of the liquid crystal display of the FFS mode of manner of comparison 1.In addition, in Fig. 9 of patent documentation 2 and Fig. 6 of patent documentation 3, the mode similar with manner of comparison 1 is illustrated.
The liquid crystal display of manner of comparison 1 possesses active-matrix substrate (array base palte) 510, the opposing substrate relative with array base palte (not shown) and is located at the liquid crystal layer (not shown) of the horizontally oriented type between two substrates.As shown in Figure 10, array base palte 510 comprises data bus 513, grid bus 551, TFT553, common electrode 515, the pixel electrode 517 that is formed at the dielectric film (not shown) on common electrode 515 and is formed on this dielectric film.The initial orientation direction of liquid crystal molecule, direction of orientation when namely not applying voltage are set as the above-below direction of Figure 10.
Each pixel electrode 517 is formed with the multiple seams 530 be parallel to each other, and common electrode 515 is relative with seam 530.By controlling the voltage applied between pixel electrode 517 and common electrode 515, controlling the orientation of liquid crystal molecule, being control to rotate in more detail.Pixel electrode 517 comprises multiple linear parts 518 of being parallel to each other and by interconnective for linear parts coupling part 519,520.
