Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display (LCD) device comprising: a plurality of data lines arranged in a column direction on a substrate; a plurality of gate lines arranged in a row direction on the substrate; a plurality of pixels formed at intersections between the gate lines and the data lines, which are perpendicular to each other and arranged on the substrate in a matrix configuration; a plurality of first electrodes and a plurality of second electrodes at each pixel, respectively, for generating an electric field between the first electrodes and the second electrodes; and a plurality of first common voltage lines alternately arranged with a plurality of second common voltage lines on the substrate in the row direction, wherein each of the plurality of first common voltage lines are connected to second electrodes at a plurality of pixels of odd numbered rows and odd numbered columns and connected to second electrodes at a plurality of pixels of even numbered rows and even numbered columns adjacent to the odd numbered rows and odd numbered columns, wherein each of the plurality of second common voltage lines are connected to second electrodes at a plurality of pixels of even numbered rows and even numbered columns and connected to second electrodes at a plurality of pixels of odd numbered rows and odd numbered columns, so that each of the second electrodes in two pixels adjacent in the row or the column direction are respectively connected to the first common voltage line and the second common voltage line, wherein a voltage polarity applied to the first common voltage lines is different than a voltage applied to the second common voltage lines.
