Display panel

A display panel comprising:

• a first substrate including:
• a lower substrate including a plurality of lower pixel portions;
• a plurality of thin film transistors on the lower pixel portions;
• a plurality of pixel electrodes electrically connected to the thin film transistors, respectively;
• and
• a plurality of lower domain dividing parts formed in the lower pixel portions, the lower domain dividing parts being spaced apart from each other;
• a second substrate including:
• an upper substrate;
• a common electrode on a substantially entire surface of the upper substrate;
• a plurality of upper domain dividing parts spaced apart from each other in a plurality of upper pixel portions corresponding to the lower pixel portions, respectively, the upper domain dividing parts and the lower domain dividing parts defining a plurality of domains, the upper domain dividing parts being connected to each other in adjacent upper pixel portions that are adjacent to each other in a first direction;
• and
• a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first and second substrates,
• wherein the lower domain dividing parts and the upper domain dividing parts which are partially overlapped with each other between the adjacent upper pixel portions, have substantially the same slope between the adjacent upper pixel portions, and
• wherein the upper domain dividing parts comprise a plurality of upper main domain dividing parts in the upper pixel portions and an upper connection domain dividing part between the adjacent upper pixel portions connecting the upper main domain dividing parts.
