Abstract:
1. A display panel comprising: a first substrate including a plurality of pixel electrodes in a plurality of lower pixel portions, respectively, each of the pixel electrodes including a plurality of lower domain dividing parts spaced apart from each other, a side of each of the pixel electrodes has a zigzag shape; a second substrate including a common electrode including a plurality of upper domain dividing parts spaced apart from each other in a plurality of upper pixel portions corresponding to the lower pixel portions, respectively, the upper domain dividing parts being connected to each other between adjacent upper pixel portions in a first direction; and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first and second substrates, wherein a portion of the side of each of the pixel electrodes and a portion of the upper domain dividing parts which are partially overlapped with each other between the adjacent upper pixel portions, have substantially the same slope, and wherein the upper domain dividing parts comprise a plurality of upper main domain dividing parts in the upper pixel portions and an upper connection domain dividing part between the adjacent upper pixel portions connecting the upper main domain dividing parts.
