Patent ID: 8493523

Claim:
A liquid crystal display (LCD) comprising: gate lines and data lines intersecting with the gate lines; a thin film transistor in a unit pixel; a storage electrode electrically coupled to a drain electrode of the thin film transistor, the storage electrode being formed in a region of the unit pixel; a first protective layer and a color filter layer in the region of the unit pixel having the storage electrode, the first protective layer and the color filter having a contact hole in a region overlapping with the storage electrode; a second pixel electrode in a second region of the unit pixel on one side of the contact hole, the second pixel electrode implementing a second sub-pixel; a second protective layer on substantially an entire region of the unit pixel, except the region in which the contact hole is formed, the second protective layer being formed on top of the second pixel electrode, in the second region; and a first pixel electrode on an upper portion of the second protective layer formed in a first region of the unit pixel which excludes the second region and the region in which the contact hole is formed, the first pixel electrode implementing a first sub-pixel and covering substantially the entire second protective layer, wherein the contact hole is configured to electrically connect the first and second pixel electrodes to the storage electrode.
