Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device comprising:a substrate; first and second gate lines arranged substantially in parallel above the substrate; a bus line arranged to intersect the first and second gate lines to define a pixel; a transistor having a source electrode and drain electrode formed near an intersection part of the bus line and the first gate line, the source electrode being connected to the bus line; at least one data electrode connected to the drain electrode of the transistor; a passivation layer formed above the transistors and the at least one data electrode; and at least one common electrode arranged above the passivation layer in parallel with the second gate line, the at least one common electrode and the at least one data electrode engaged in an in-plane switching mode, wherein the portions of the second gate line, the data electrode and the common electrode all overlap with each other.
