Patent ID: 8212973

Claim:
A liquid crystal display, comprising: an array substrate comprising a first transparent substrate, a plurality of switches and a plurality of pixel electrodes, wherein the switches and the pixel electrodes are disposed on the first transparent substrate and each switch is electrically coupled to one of the pixel electrodes; a color filter substrate defining a plurality of pixel areas, each pixel area positionally corresponds to one of the pixel electrodes; and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the array substrate and the color filter substrate, wherein the color filter substrate comprises a second transparent substrate, a first transparent conductive layer, a second transparent conductive layer and a dielectric layer, the first transparent conductive layer is disposed between the second transparent substrate and the second transparent conductive layer, the dielectric layer is disposed between the first transparent conductive layer and the second transparent conductive layer, the dielectric layer is a color filter comprising a black matrix layer and a plurality of filter traces defined by the black matrix layer, each filter trace positionally corresponds to one of the pixel areas, and the second transparent conductive layer defines at least one hole in each pixel area; whereby at least two areas in which liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer are orientated to different directions are generated between the pixel area and the pixel electrode.
