Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display comprising: a first substrate; a first subpixel electrode positioned on the first substrate and configured to receive a first voltage; a second subpixel electrode positioned on the first substrate and configured to receive a second voltage; an insulating layer positioned between the first subpixel electrode and the second subpixel electrode; a second substrate facing the first substrate; and a common electrode positioned on the second substrate, wherein a portion of the first subpixel electrode and a portion of the second subpixel electrode overlap each other with the insulating layer interposed therebetween, so as to form an area of overlap, wherein the portion of the second subpixel electrode includes a plurality of branch electrodes, wherein, in the area of overlap, a part of the portion of the first subpixel electrode is exposed between the plurality of branch electrodes of the portion of the second subpixel electrode, and wherein a difference between the first voltage and a common voltage is larger than a difference between the second voltage and the common voltage.
