Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display comprising: a first substrate; a first signal line formed on the first substrate; a second signal line formed on the first substrate and intersecting the first signal line; a pixel electrode formed in a pixel defined by the intersection of the first signal line and the second signal line; a thin film transistor connected to the first signal line, the second signal line, and the pixel electrode; a second insulating substrate facing the first insulating substrate; a common electrode formed on the second insulation substrate; a liquid crystal layer formed between the first insulation substrate and the second insulation substrate; and a domain determination member formed on at least one of the first insulating substrate and the second insulating substrate and dividing the liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer in the pixel into a plurality of domains, wherein the domain determination member is divided into a plurality of portions by a notch, and wherein the domain determination member includes a first portion extending in a direction parallel to the first signal line and a second portion extending in a direction parallel to the second signal line.
