Disclosed is a fringe field switching liquid crystal display. The fringe field switching liquid crystal display comprises a black matrix formed on an upper substrate, a pixel electrode formed above a lower substrate and having an edge portion overlapped with the black matrix by a predetermined region, and liquid crystal interposed between the upper substrate and the lower substrate, wherein the edge portion of the pixel electrode has a linear line shape. According to such an edge portion of the pixel electrode, it is possible to stably drive the liquid crystal located at the edge portion of the pixel electrode and also to restore the liquid crystal with rapidity.
A liquid crystal display device is disclosed that may prevent crosstalk from occurring. The liquid crystal display device includes pixel and common electrodes forming a fringe field, wherein the pixel electrodes are substantially in parallel over the common electrode and the pixel electrodes are connected with one another in a central portion.
