Original Abstract Submitted
A liquid crystal panel includes two substrates and a liquid crystal between the two substrates. A first substrate as one of the two substrates includes: a potential gradient forming section having an outer periphery edge having a circular shape; a first electrode provided on an inner periphery side of the potential gradient forming section; a second electrode provided on an outer periphery side of the potential gradient forming section and having a ring-like shape; a first transmission section provided with a potential; a second transmission section provided with another potential; a first contact coupling the first electrode and the first transmission section; and a second contact coupling the second electrode and the second transmission section. The potential gradient forming section is made of a conductor having an electrical resistance higher than those of the first and second electrodes. A plurality of the second contacts are provided for the second electrode.
