1. A liquid crystal device, comprising:
- an array substrate on which a plurality of pixel electrodes are formed and arranged in a matrix manner;
an opposed substrate on which a conductive light shielding film having openings at positions opposing the pixel electrodes is formed; and
a liquid crystal layer interposed between the substrates, the liquid crystal layer being formed of liquid crystal having negative dielectric anisotropy exhibiting homeotropic alignment in the initial alignment state, and the liquid crystal being controlled in alignment by an electric field between the pixel electrodes and the light shielding film.

Abstract
To achieve clear image display without providing a feeling of roughness by fixing the position where disclination is generated in a liquid crystal device of a homeotropic alignment type, a conductive light shielding film provided on the side of an opposed substrate as a common electrode to drive a liquid crystal layer by pixel electrodes of an array substrate and the light shielding film of the opposed substrate.
