Patent ID: 8629447

Claim:
A display apparatus, comprising: a display substrate comprising a first substrate and a plurality of pixel electrodes disposed on the first substrate; and a counter substrate comprising: a second substrate facing the first substrate; a common electrode disposed on the second substrate; a first spacer disposed on the second substrate and contacting the display substrate; a second spacer extending from the common electrode toward the display substrate, wherein a first gap exists between the second spacer and the display substrate; a third spacer extending from the common electrode toward the display substrate, wherein a second gap exists between the third spacer and the display substrate, the second gap being larger than the first gap; and a fourth spacer extending from the common electrode toward the display substrate, wherein a third gap exists between the fourth spacer and the display substrate, wherein the first, second, and third gaps are each different in size from each other and exist when the counter substrate is in a non-deformed state.
