Liquid crystal display device

A liquid crystal display (LCD) device, comprising:

• a first substrate including an active area and a peripheral area;
• a second substrate confronting the first substrate;
• a liquid crystal layer between the first and second substrates;
• fourth, fifth and sixth color filters respectively in individual pixels of the active area in a matrix configuration;
• and
• an overcoat layer covering the fourth, fifth and sixth color filters,
• wherein the fourth color filter is a composition of a pigment, a light-shielding material dispersed in the pigment, and a binder for binding the pigment and the light-shielding material and is additionally in the peripheral area,
• wherein the fourth color filter comprises a first portion between at least two neighboring pixels in the active area and a second portion in a pixel among the individual pixels of the active area, and a thickness of the first portion of the fourth color filter is same as a thickness of the second portion of the fourth color filter and the thickness of each of the first portion and the second portion of the fourth color filter is different from a thickness of the fifth and sixth color filters, and
• wherein the overcoat layer is in contact with the second portion of the fourth color filter.

A liquid crystal display (LCD) device, comprising:

• a first substrate including a first pixel, a second pixel and a third pixel in an active area;
• a second substrate confronting the first substrate;
• a liquid crystal layer between the first and second substrates;
• a first color filter in the first pixel on the first substrate;
• a second color filter in the second pixel on the first substrate;
• a third color filter in the third pixel on the first substrate;
• and
• an overcoat layer covering the first, second and third color filters,
• wherein the first color filter comprises a first portion provided in every boundary area between pixels in the active area including between the first pixel and the second pixel, between the first pixel and the third pixel, and between the second pixel and the third pixel, a second portion in the first pixel
• wherein the first color filter consists of a blue color filter, and
• wherein a thickness of the first portion of the first color filter is same as a thickness of the second portion of the first color filter and the thickness of each of the first portion and the second portion of the first color filter is different from a thickness of the second and third color filters, and
• wherein the overcoat layer is in contact with the second portion of the first color filter.
