Liquid crystal display panel and method for manufacturing thereof and liquid crystal display incorporating the same

A liquid crystal display (LCD) panel, comprising:

• a first substrate;
• a second substrate, opposite to the first substrate;
• an active matrix, disposed on the first substrate, having at least one switch device and at least one pixel;
• a first electrode, electrically connected to the switch device, having a plurality of first electrode portions disposed inside the pixel;
• a second electrode having a plurality of second electrode portions disposed inside the pixel, wherein each second electrode portion is inter-spaced by each first electrode portion and each second electrode portion and the adjacent first electrode portion is separated by a predetermined distance, and the direction of a horizontal electrical field formed between each first electrode portion and the adjacent second electrode portion is substantially parallel to the surface of the first substrate;
• only one vertical alignment film, wherein the only one vertical alignment film is only disposed on the first substrate which the first electrode portions and the second electrode portions are disposed on;
• and
• a smectic liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate.
