Patent ID: 8619223

Claim:
A liquid crystal display panel, comprising: a first substrate; a second substrate having a common electrode; a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the first substrate and the second substrate; a plurality of data lines and scan lines that intersect each other on the first substrate for defining a plurality of pixel areas; and a plurality of pixel electrodes disposed in corresponding pixel areas, wherein each of the pixel electrodes defines at least two slits that divide the pixel electrode into at least two first areas and at least two second areas, wherein the first areas and the second areas are insulated with respect to each other, and the first areas are disposed diagonally and the second areas are disposed diagonally; wherein the common electrode layer is opposite to the pixel electrodes; and wherein the common electrode layer has at least one second slit corresponding to one of the data lines, the second slit is disposed along and overlapping with the one of the data lines, and a horizontal distance between the edge of the common electrode layer at the second slit and the edge of the one of the pixel electrodes is between 4 microns and 8 microns.
