Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a first substrate and a second substrate arranged opposite each other, each of which includes an active area defined in the center thereof and a non-active area defined around the active area; a plurality of gate lines and data lines formed on the active area of the first substrate and arranged intersecting each other to define a plurality of pixel areas; thin film transistors formed at intersections of the respective gate lines and the respective data lines; pixel electrodes formed in the respective pixel areas; a common electrode formed over the entire surface of the second substrate; a conductive seal pattern configured to surround the non-active area of the first substrate or of the second substrate; a common line pattern formed on the first substrate to correspond to the conductive seal pattern; and a transparent electrode pattern configured to overlap the common line pattern with an insulating layer interposed therebetween, the transparent electrode pattern having a width equal to or less than that of the common line pattern.
