Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display having a plurality of pixels arranged at least approximately in a matrix, the liquid crystal display comprising: a plurality of pixel electrodes disposed on a first substrate and each including a first sub-pixel electrode and a second sub-pixel electrode; a plurality of data lines connected to the pixel electrodes; a common electrode disposed on a second substrate facing the first substrate, the common electrode including a plurality of openings; and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the openings are each disposed at a position corresponding to at least a portion of one of the data lines, and are each disposed proximate to at least one of the second sub-pixel electrodes, the openings having edges extending beyond edges of their corresponding data lines by a distance of about 3 μm to about 6 μm, and the common electrode disposed in one pixel of three pixels that are adjacent in a pixel column direction does not have the opening.
