DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

A display device includes a substrate, gate lines extended in a first direction on the substrate, data lines extended in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction on the substrate, and pixels connected to the gate and data lines. Each pixel includes a transistor having one end connected to a data line, and a gate electrode connected to a corresponding gate line, a liquid crystal layer disposed in a tunnel-shaped cavity, first and second electrodes for applying an electric field to the liquid crystal layer. The first electrode of each pixel is connected to another end of the transistor, a second electrode of each pixel overlaps the first electrode of one of its adjacent pixels, and the first electrode of each pixel overlaps a second electrode of another one of its adjacent pixels.
