Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device, comprising: a substrate; a gate line and a data line on the substrate, the gate line crossing the data line to define a pixel region; a common line parallel to the gate line; a thin film transistor connected to the gate line and the data line; a plurality of common electrodes extending from the common line; and a plurality of pixel electrodes alternating with the plurality of common electrodes, wherein a gap distance is defined as a width of a block by the adjacent common and pixel electrode in the pixel region, and at least one gap distance is different from the other gap distances, wherein the plurality of common electrodes include first, second and third common electrodes, and the plurality of pixel electrodes include first and second pixel electrodes to form a first gap distance (w wherein the first to fourth gap distances gradually increase (w
