Patent ID: 8654296

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device, comprising a first substrate and a second substrate which are oppositely configured, and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, the first substrate comprising a transparent substrate and a plurality of scanning ones and a plurality of data lines formed on the transparent substrate, the plurality of scanning lines and the plurality of data lines crosswise defining a plurality of pixel regions, wherein each pixel region comprises: at least two electrode groups, each electrode group comprising a first transparent electrode and a second transparent electrode, the first transparent electrode and the second transparent electrode being alternately located on different layers; a third transparent electrode, which is provided between the two adjacent electrode groups a fourth transparent electrode, which is provide adjacent to the data lines, wherein during operation of the liquid crystal display device, a fringe field is generated between the first transparent electrode and the second transparent electrode within the electrode group, and a horizontal electric filed is generated between the first transparent electrode of the electrode group and the third transparent electrode; wherein a horizontal electric field is generated between the first transparent of the electrode group and the fourth transparent electrode; wherein each electrode group comprises a pair of separately configured first transparent electrodes, with a gap between the pair of first transparent electrodes; wherein the second transparent electrode is centrally located in the gap between the air of first transparent electrodes, and the second transparent electrode has a width larger than the width of the gap between the pair of first transparent electrodes; wherein the third transparent electrode is centrally located between the two adjacent electrode groups; wherein the first transparent electrode is a pixel electrode, and the second transparent electrode, the third transparent electrode and the fourth transparent electrode are common electrodes, wherein the third electrode overlaps no pixel electrode; and wherein the first transparent electrode, the second transparent electrode, the third transparent electrode and the fourth transparent electrode are located on the first substrate.
