Patent ID: 8717518

Claim:
A liquid crystal display comprising: an IPS mode liquid crystal panel comprising an upper substrate and a bottom substrate, which are apart from and opposite to each other; a liquid crystal layer; a polarizer comprising a polarizing film or a polarizing element; a protective film formed on the upper part and the bottom part of said polarizing film or polarizing element; and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer having a surface resistance of 10 12 Ω/□ or less formed on the bottom part of said bottom protective film; and an antistatic layer having a surface resistance of 2×10 8 to 4×10 9 Ω/□ formed on the upper or bottom part of said protective film, wherein both of a common electrode and a pixel electrode are formed on the bottom substrate, and the liquid crystal layer is operated by a horizontal electrical field generated by the common and pixel electrode, and wherein the polarizer is directly attached on the upper substrate, on which a conductive layer for antistatic purpose is not formed.
