Color liquid crystal display device using color filter and liquid crystal layer with d•Δn of specified range

A liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a pair of substrates;
• a liquid crystal layer interposed between said pair of substrates;
• wherein
• one of said pair of substrates comprises:
• a plurality of scanning electrodes;
• a plurality of signal electrodes arranged so as to cross with said plurality of scanning electrodes;
• a plurality of thin film transistors arranged in the vicinity of the crossing points of said scanning electrodes with said signal electrodes,
• a plurality of common electrodes, and
• a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged between each of said common electrodes;
• wherein an electric field is formed in said liquid crystal layer by applying a voltage to said pixel electrodes and said plurality of common electrodes;
• and
• the other substrate of said pair of substrates comprises:
• color filters, and
• least one film arranged on said color filters for flattening said color filters and being an orientation control film,
• wherein all electrodes of said liquid crystal display device are arranged onto said one of said pair of substrates, and
• wherein d·Δn of said liquid crystal layer is in a range of 0.21 μm to 0.36 μm, where d represents a thickness of said liquid crystal layer and Δn represents birefringence of said liquid crystal layer.
