LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY WITH IRREGULAR MOLECULE ARRANGEMENT THAT PROVIDE FOR A GREATER VIEWING ANGLE WITHOUT DISPLAY DETERIORATION

摘要

A liquid crystal display includes: a first substrate; a gate line and a data line disposed on the first substrate; a passivation layer disposed on the gate line and the data line; a first electrode and a second electrode disposed on the passivation layer; and a first insulating layer interposed between the first and second electrodes, where the first and second electrodes overlap each other via the first insulating layer, the second electrode includes a plurality of branch electrodes, and an end portion of the plurality of branch electrodes includes a first side portion and a second side portion extending parallel to the data line, and an oblique portion which connects the first side portion and the second side portion to each other and forms a first angle of less than 90 degrees with an extending line of the first side portion.

1. A liquid crystal display comprising:
a first substrate; a gate line disposed on the first substrate; a data line disposed on the first substrate; a passivation layer disposed on the gate line and the data line; a first electrode disposed on the passivation layer; a second electrode disposed on the passivation layer and comprising a plurality of branch electrodes; a first insulating layer interposed between the first and second electrodes, the first and second electrodes overlapping each other via the first insulating layer interposed therebetween; and a light blocking member disposed to surround the branch electrodes, wherein an end portion of the branch electrodes comprises: an oblique portion which forms a first angle, which is less than about 90 degrees, with an extending line of the data line, wherein the first angle satisfies the following inequation:90-tan-1(ba)≤θ≤70°.and
wherein ‘a’ denotes a width of the branch electrodes, and ‘b’ denotes a maximum interval between an end of the first side portion of the branch electrodes and a portion of the light blocking member adjacent thereto.
