- the horizontal electric field type liquid crystal cell has excellent viewing angle characteristics, since there are few electrode parts formed in the substrate, if the voltage holding ratio of the liquid crystal alignment film is weak, sufficient voltage is not applied to the liquid crystal and the display contrast Decreases.
