Abstract
A liquid crystal display includes a pixel electrode, a common electrode facing the pixel electrode, and a thin film transistor including a gate electrode connected to a gate line, a source electrode connected to a data line, and a drain electrode connected to the pixel electrode. First and second domain defining members defining domains are provided at the liquid crystal display and the drain electrode is disposed near a corner of one of the domains. The drain electrode has an edge extending perpendicular to major edges of the domains and located closest to a center of the one of the domains.
Claims7
A liquid crystal display comprising:
- a first substrate;
- a gate line formed on the first substrate;
- a data line formed on the first substrate and intersecting the gate line;
- a pixel electrode disposed substantially in an area defined by the gate line and the data line;
- a thin film transistor including a gate electrode connected to the gate line, a source electrode connected to the data line, and a drain electrode connected to the pixel electrode;
- a second substrate facing the second substrate;
- a common electrode formed on the second substrate;
- a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate;
- first and second domain defining members defining a plurality of domains in the liquid crystal layer,
- wherein the drain electrode is disposed near a corner of one of the domains.
