Liquid crystal display device with columnar spacer

A liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a liquid crystal layer interposed between a pair of substrates;
• at least a video signal line formed on one of said pair of substrates;
• at least a first pixel adjacent a left side of the video signal line and a second pixel adjacent a right side of the video signal line;
• at least a first electrode formed for the first pixel and a second electrode formed for the second pixel;
• and
• a columnar spacer formed above the video signal line, wherein at least a portion of said columnar spacer is positioned to overlap with said first and second electrodes.

A liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a liquid crystal layer interposed between a pair of substrates;
• at least a video signal line formed on one of said pair of substrate;
• at least a counter electrode having a first edge portion positioned toward to the video signal line and a second edge portion positioned away from the video signal line;
• and
• at least a columnar spacer having at least one side edge portion formed to overlap with the first edge portion of the counter electrode, and defined to be spaced apart from the second edge portion of the counter electrode.

A liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a liquid crystal layer interposed between first and second substrates;
• at least a video signal line formed on said first substrate;
• at least a black matrix formed on said second substrate;
• at least one columnar spacer positioned between said first and second substrates, and
• a plurality of color filters, each of the color filters having an edge portion positionally arranged with the black matrix, wherein said at least one columnar spacer includes a side edge portion positioned to overlap with the edge portion of an adjacent one of the plurality of color filters, and a side edge portion of the black matrix is formed to overlap beyond the side edge portion of said columnar spacer.
