Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display panel comprising: a first substrate comprising a pixel electrode on a pixel area comprising a first sub-pixel area and a second sub-pixel area, the first sub-pixel area including a first opening; and a second substrate coupled to the first substrate with a liquid crystal layer accommodated between the first substrate and the second substrate, and comprising a common electrode formed on an area corresponding to the pixel area, wherein the pixel electrode comprises: a first sub-pixel electrode on the first sub-pixel area; a second sub-pixel electrode on the second sub-pixel area; a switching device between the first sub-pixel area and the second sub-pixel area including a gate electrode, a source electrode, and a drain electrode; a contact electrode on a non-pixel area between the first sub-pixel area and the second sub-pixel area, wherein the contact electrode is electrically connected to the drain electrode of the switching device via a contact portion formed in an extension portion of the drain electrode between the first sub-pixel area and the second sub-pixel area, wherein the drain electrode extends to the first opening of the first sub-pixel area to bridge data between the first sub-pixel area and the second sub-pixel area, and a connection electrode between the second sub-pixel electrode and the contact portion and not including the contact portion for electrically coupling the second sub-pixel electrode and the contact electrode to each other.
