Multi-domain vertical alignment (MVA) liquid crystal display device having symmetrical second slits on opposite edges of first slits and on opposite sides of protrusions

A multi-domain vertical alignment liquid crystal display device, comprising:

• a first substrate having a plurality of protrusions and a first electrode, wherein said first electrode is disposed on a surface of said first substrate while said protrusions are disposed on a part of the surface of said first electrode;
• a second substrate having a plurality of pixel electrodes disposed on a surface of said second substrate, a plurality of first slits disposed among said pixel electrodes without intersecting the projections of said protrusions on said second substrate, and a plurality of second slits disposed on the two opposite edges of said first slits, wherein said second slits extend in a direction to intersect said projections of said protrusions on said second substrate and said second slits at said opposite edges of said first slits are symmetric to each other and said second slits at opposite sides of said protrusions are symmetric to each other;
• and
• a liquid crystal layer interposed between said first substrate and said second substrate.
