Patent ID: 8107047

Claim:
A liquid crystal display apparatus, comprising: a first panel including: a first transparent substrate having a pixel area; a thin film transistor disposed at the pixel area so as to output a pixel voltage; a first color filter disposed at the pixel area, the first color filter having a first edge; a second color filter disposed adjacent to the first color filter and having a second edge, the first edge and the second edge being overlapped to provide an overlapped area between the first color filter and the second color filter; a spacer disposed on the overlapped area between the first color filter and the adjacent second color filter, the spacer having a same material as one of the first color filter and the second color filter; and a pixel electrode disposed on the first color filter so as to receive the pixel voltage; a second panel including: a second transparent substrate; a light blocking pattern formed on the second transparent substrate; a common electrode disposed on the second transparent substrate having the light blocking pattern formed thereon, a protruding portion of the common electrode protruded by the light blocking pattern making contact with an end portion of the spacer; a light visual angle pattern disposed on the common electrode and formed at a position corresponding to the pixel area so as to widen a visual angle of an image displayed by the liquid crystal display apparatus, the light visual angle pattern including a same material as the light blocking pattern; and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first and second panels, wherein an opening is formed through each of the first color filter and the second color filter to partially expose the thin film transistor, and the pixel electrode is electrically connected to the thin film transistor through the opening, wherein the light visual angle pattern is disposed between the common electrode and the liquid crystal layer.
