Patent ID: 7116393

Claim:
An array substrate device for a liquid crystal display device, comprising: a substrate; a gate line extending along a first direction on the substrate; a data line extending along a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction on the substrate; a pixel region defined by a crossing of the gate and data lines; a common line extending along the first direction and spaced apart from the gate line; a common electrode having a plurality of first portions extended along the second direction from the common line to the pixel region and a second portion extending in the first direction and connecting to the plurality of first portions, wherein one of the first portions of the common electrode adjacent to the data line includes first and second extensions overlapping portions of the data line; a thin film transistor on the substrate at a crossing portion of the gate and data lines, the thin film transistor including source and drain electrodes; a pixel electrode extended from the drain electrode to the pixel region; and an auxiliary electrode extending along the second direction and connected to the one of the first portions of the common electrode adjacent to the data line.
