Abstract
A multi-domain liquid crystal display is disclosed. The display includes embedded fringe field amplifiers behind the color dots of the display. Specifically, the embedded fringe field amplifiers have a polarity that is different from the polarity of the color dot, that is located in front of the embedded fringe field amplifier. This difference in polarity enhances the fringe fields of the color dot or in some situations may create additional fringe fields. The enhanced fringe fields or additional fringe fiends enhances the performance of the display.

A pixel of a display comprising:
- a first color component having a first first-component color dot;
- a first switching element coupled to the first first-component color dot;
- a first embedded fringe field amplifier located behind the first first-component color dot, wherein at least a first edge and a second edge of the first first-component color dot are in front of the first embedded fringe field amplifier.
- a second color component having a first second-component color dot;
- a second switching element coupled to the first second-component color dot;
- and
- a second embedded fringe field amplifier located behind the first second-component color dot, wherein at least a first edge and a second edge of the first second-component color dot are in front of the second embedded fringe field amplifier.
