Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display (LCD) device comprising: first and second substrates facing each other; gate and data lines crossing each other on the first substrate to define a pixel region, wherein the data lines is formed in a straight line; a first common line parallel to the gate line; a thin film transistor at a crossing portion of the gate and data lines; an insulating interlayer on an entire surface of the first substrate including the data line; color filters on the first substrate in the pixel region, wherein each color filter does not overlap each other, and completely overlaps only one of the adjacent two data lines so that a fixed interval between the color filter layers is not disposed on the data line; a planarization layer on the entire surface of the first substrate including the color filter layers; a second common line along the gate line and the thin film transistor; common electrodes completely overlapping the data line and extending to a portion between respective color filters, wherein the common electrodes are arranged in one direction in the pixel region; and a pixel electrode in contact with a drain electrode of the thin film transistor and formed between the common electrodes at fixed intervals, wherein the common electrodes are wider than the data line, and are formed in an asymmetric structure with respect to a portion of the common electrodes on a left side of the data line and a portion of the common electrodes corresponding to and covering the fixed interval between the color filter layers.
