Abstract: An FFS (Fringe Field Switching) mode liquid crystal display comprises a lower substrate and an upper substrate and a gate line formed on the lower substrate. A data line crosses perpendicular to the gate line. A first ITO electrode is formed in a region defined by the gate line and the data line. A second ITO electrode of a comb-teeth pattern is formed on the lower substrate while being overlapped on the first ITO electrode. A black matrix formed on the upper substrate, wherein, a wedge portion of the second ITO electrode is formed at a position spaced by a predetermined interval to the inside from an edge section of the black matrix.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fringe field switching liquid crystal display, which prevents disclination lines from being created at a wedge section and improves liquid crystal polarization efficiency of a pixel electrode. The fringe field switching liquid crystal display comprises upper and lower substrates arranged while forming a space between them, a conductive black matrix formed on a lower surface of the upper substrate, a common electrode formed on an upper surface of the lower substrate, a gate insulation layer formed on an upper surface of the common electrode, and a pixel electrode formed on an upper surface of the gate insulation layer. Herein, the pixel electrode forms an electric field and includes a fringe portion having a saw-tooth shape, which forms one of 1-domain and 2-domain among the pixel electrode, the conductive black matrix, and the common electrode.

Abstract: 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.
