A liquid crystal display includes a first substrate having a plurality of pixel areas. At least one pair of first and second protrusions is formed at each pixel area. A pixel electrode is formed at each pixel area. The pixel electrode has an opening pattern exposing the first protrusion while covering the second protrusion. A second substrate faces the first substrate. A common electrode is formed at the second substrate. Alternatively, the opening pattern and the protrusions may be formed in parallel.

A wide-viewing angle LCD comprises a first substrate and a second substrate disposed opposite each other with a liquid crystal layer disposed therebetween. A first electrode is disposed on the interior of the first substrate. A first protrusion or slit structure with a first pattern is formed on the first electrode. A second electrode is disposed on the interior of the second substrate. A second protrusion or slit structure with a second pattern is formed on the second electrode. The first and second patterns constitute a third pattern with at least one intersection.
An in-plane switching mode liquid crystal display device including first and second substrates having an array region and a sealant region along a periphery of the array region, a sealant in the sealant region attaching the first and second substrates, a metallic black matrix formed in the sealant region and in the array region of the first substrate, a color filter on the metallic black matrix, an organic layer on the color filter and a liquid crystal layer between the first and second substrates.
A liquid crystal display (LCD) panel is fabricated in a simplified process. The LCD panel includes a thin film transistor (TFT) array substrate with a gate and data lines crossing each other to define a pixel area, a TFT at the crossings of the gate and data lines, a protective film, and a pixel electrode connected to the TFT and formed within a pixel opening that is arranged at the pixel area and formed through the protective film and a gate insulating film. A color filter array substrate is joined to the TFT array substrate. A pattern spacer is between the TFT and color filter array substrate and overlaps at least one of the gate line, the data line, and the thin film transistor. A rib is formed from the same layer as the pattern spacer and overlaps the pixel electrode. Liquid crystal material is provided within the LCD panel.
