摘要
A liquid crystal display device having a plurality of switching elements including a pair of substrates, a liquid crystal layer interposed between the pair of substrates, and an electrode structure formed on one of the pair of substrates for generating an electric field having a component substantially in parallel with the one of said pair of substrates. The electrode structure includes at least one common electrode and at least one pixel electrode. An organic film is formed on at least one of the at least one common electrode and the at least one pixel electrode, with the organic film being both an insulating film and an orientation film.
