Liquid crystal display

A liquid crystal display, comprising:

• a first insulating substrate;
• a light blocking member positioned on the first insulating substrate, the light blocking member having a frame portion defining openings for pixels;
• a step compensating pattern positioned on the first insulating substrate and in one of the openings;
• a second insulating substrate facing the first insulating substrate;
• a first electrode formed on the first insulating substrate in the same layer as a second domain dividing unit;
• a second electrode facing the first electrode and disposed in the same layer as a first domain dividing unit;
• and
• a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode,
• wherein the step compensating pattern corresponds to a pattern of the first domain dividing unit or the second domain dividing unit and extends at a non-right angle with respect to the light blocking member in a layout view of the liquid crystal display,
• wherein the step compensating pattern and one of the first domain dividing unit and the second domain dividing unit are parallel,
• wherein each of the pixels is one of a red pixel, a green pixel, a blue pixel, and a white pixel,
• wherein the step compensating pattern is positioned in the white pixel,
• wherein the red pixel, the green pixel, and the blue pixel include a red filter, a green filter, and a blue filter, respectively, and
• wherein the white pixel further includes a color filter made of a transparent insulating material.
