An improved liquid crystal device for display is disclosed. The device is comprised of a pair of substrates on whose insides a number of electrode strips are formed in a matrix. The electrode strips are formed also near the periphery portions of the substrates which are unnecessary for the pixels of the display. By virtue of the excess electrode strips, joining the substrates can be done without special attention to the coincidence of the substrates.

A display and a driving method for the same capable of constructing clear visual images is described. In the display, a plurality of conductive pads are opposed to a back electrode with a light influencing medium such as a liquid crystal layer. Control signals are supplied to the conductive pads through complimentary transistors comprise a p-channel field effect transistor and an n-channel field effect transistor connected between VDD and VSS lines of a control circuit, which also supplies a bias voltage to the back electrode and gate control signals to the gate terminals of the p-channel field effect transistor and the n-channel field effect transistor. During operation, the bias voltage is inverted in order to invert the polarity of control signal applied across the light influencing medium.
