Abstract:
A thin film transistor array substrate for a liquid crystal display, comprising:an insulating substrate; a gate line formed on the substrate; a common electrode line proceeding parallel to the gate line; a storage capacitor electrode connected to the common electrode line; a gate insulating layer formed on the gate line, the common electrode line, and the storage capacitor electrode; a data line formed on the gate insulating layer; a protective layer formed on the data line; and a pixel electrode formed on the protective layer with opening patterns, wherein the pixel electrode covers entire width of the storage capacitor electrodes at particular regions, and wherein each opening pattern comprises a horizontal opening portion formed at the boundary of the pixel electrode bisecting the pixel electrode into an upper region and a lower region, and inclined opening portions formed at the upper region and the lower region of the pixel electrode while proceeding perpendicular to each other.
