Patent ID: 8599351

Claim:
A liquid crystal display comprising: a substrate including a plurality of pixels; a first gate line, and a second gate line adjacent to the first gate line in a column direction; a first pixel electrode on the substrate in one pixel, the first pixel electrode including a first sub-pixel electrode and a second sub-pixel electrode; and a plurality of data lines on the substrate, wherein a pair of adjacent data lines of the plurality of data lines overlaps the first pixel electrode, the pair of adjacent data lines having data voltages of opposite polarities, most of the first sub-pixel electrode and the second sub-pixel electrode are disposed between the first gate line and the second gate line, the first sub-pixel electrode comprises a first sub-pixel electrode part and the second sub-pixel electrode comprises a second sub-pixel electrode part, the first sub-pixel electrode part and the second sub-pixel electrode part being adjacent to and separated from each other in the column direction, and at least one portion of regions separating the first sub-pixel electrode part and the second sub-pixel electrode part overlaps with at least one of the first gate line and the second gate line.
