Abstract:
The present invention provides a transflective liquid crystal display device having at least one switching element having at least a drain electrode, a first passivation layer formed over the switching element with the first passivation layer defining a drain contact hole exposing a first portion the drain electrode, a transparent pixel electrode contacting the drain electrode through the drain contact hole and defining a contact opening that exposes a second portion of the drain electrode, the contact opening being defined in a portion of the transparent pixel electrode in the drain contact hole, and a reflective pixel electrode contacting the transparent pixel electrode in the drain contact hole and contacting the drain electrode through the contact opening.
Abstract:
An array substrate is provided for an in-plane switching mode liquid crystal display device. The array substrate includes a substrate, a thin film transistor on the substrate, a gate line connected to the transistor, a data line crossing the gate line and connected to the transistor such that the crossed data line and gate line define boundaries of a pixel region, a pixel electrode disposed in the pixel region connected to the transistor, and a common electrode disposed in the pixel region. The pixel electrode has at least one vertical portion and a plurality of horizontal portions, and the common electrode has at least two horizontal portions and a plurality of horizontal portions. The vertical portion of the pixel electrode is between the vertical portions of the common electrode, and the horizontal portions of the common electrode cross the vertical portion of the pixel electrode.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device includes a substrate, a black matrix layer on the substrate and having a first plurality of openings, a color filter layer on the black matrix layer and having a second plurality of openings, and a plurality of column spacers each contacting the substrate through the first plurality and second plurality of openings.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal panel having first and second substrates attached to each other and separated by a spacer, a sealing unit for sealing the first and second substrates along a peripheral area of the liquid crystal panel, and a sealing pattern disposed within the sealing unit.
