Patent ID: 7889305

Claim:
A liquid crystal display device comprising: a first insulation substrate; a gate line which is disposed on the first insulation substrate and extends substantially in a first direction; first and second data lines which are insulated from the gate line, extend substantially in a second direction and intersect the gate line; a pixel electrode which comprises first and second sub-pixel electrodes which are each provided with different data voltages via the first and second data lines, respectively, and which are separated from each other by a gap, the second sub-pixel electrode at least partially overlapping the first and second data lines; a second insulation substrate which faces the first insulation substrate; a black matrix which is disposed on the second insulation substrate, includes at least one protruding portion and at least one recessed portion and extends substantially along the first and second data lines; and a liquid crystal layer which is interposed between the first and second insulation substrates.
