Liquid crystal display having sensor and spacer arrangement and and method of manufacturing the same

A liquid crystal display comprising:

• a first substrate;
• a sensor pad disposed on the first substrate;
• a second substrate which faces the first substrate;
• a sensor spacer disposed on the second substrate, wherein the sensor spacer is spaced apart from the sensor pad of the first substrate, and comprises a sensor electrode disposed on a portion of the sensor spacer which faces the sensor pad of the first substrate;
• a supporting spacer disposed on the second substrate and spaced apart from the first substrate;
• a supporting dielectric portion disposed between the supporting spacer and the first substrate, the supporting dielectric portion having a cross sectional area substantially similar to that of the supporting spacer in a plan view and which uniformly maintains a cell gap between the first substrate and the second substrate;
• and
• a liquid crystal layer which is interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate.
