Patent ID: 8711316

Claim:
A liquid crystal display comprising: a first substrate; a pixel electrode disposed on the first substrate and extended in a first direction; a second substrate; a common electrode disposed on the second substrate and facing the pixel electrode, and comprising a tilt direction determining member extended parallel to the first direction; and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the pixel electrode and the common electrode, wherein the pixel electrode comprises: an edge portion defined by a plurality of protruded and depressed portions each extended in a second direction inclined with respect to the first direction, and alternately disposed along the first direction, and a base portion comprising a base portion edge from which the edge portion extends, and wherein for each of the protruded portions, a second direction length F of the protruded portion and a second direction distance B between the base portion edge from which the edge portion extends and the tilt direction determining member of the common electrode, satisfy the following relation: F/B ≦1.
