Abstract:
1. An IPS mode LCD device comprising: a gate line on a substrate along one direction; a common electrode having a bent portion; a first disclination prevention pattern portion extended from the bent portion of the common electrode toward one side of the common electrode; a data line substantially perpendicular to the gate line; a thin film transistor at a crossing portion of the gate and data lines; a pixel electrode connected to a drain electrode of the thin film transistor, the pixel electrode having a bent portion and being formed substantially parallel to the common electrode; a storage electrode extended from the pixel electrode and overlapping a common line; a second disclination prevention pattern portion extended from a bent portion of the pixel electrode toward one side of the pixel electrode; a first supplementary capacitor electrode extended from the bent portion of the common electrode toward the one side of the common electrode, wherein the first supplementary capacitor electrode is a different size than the first disclination prevention pattern portion.
