Patent ID: 7327431

Claim:
A liquid crystal display (LCD) device comprising: first and second substrates facing each other at a predetermined distance; gate and data lines crossing each other on the first substrate, to define a pixel region; a first common line substantially parallel to the gate line; a thin film transistor where the gate and data lines cross; a first insulating interlayer on an entire surface of the first substrate including the thin film transistor; an insulating layer having walls over the gate and data lines; a second common line and a common electrode in the pixel region extending in one direction and overlapping the gate line, the data line and the thin film transistor; a pixel electrode in contact with a drain electrode of the thin film transistor and between the common electrodes of the pixel region at fixed intervals; and wherein the walls of the insulating layer are above the gate line at the lower side of the pixel region and some portions of the both data lines adjacent to the pixel region.
