A liquid crystal display device of FFS mode includes an array substrate and this for a liquid crystal display device of the FFS mode

摘要

An array substrate for a fringe field switching mode liquid crystal display device includes a plurality of gate lines on a substrate; a gate insulating layer on the plurality of gate lines; a plurality of data lines on the gate insulating layer and crossing the plurality of gate lines to define a plurality of pixel regions; a thin film transistor electrically connected to the gate and data lines and in each pixel region; a pixel electrode having a plate shape and in the each pixel region, the pixel electrode connected to a portion of the thin film transistor; a first passivation layer on the pixel electrode and over the thin film transistor; and a common electrode on the first passivation layer and having a plurality of openings of a bar shape in the each pixel region, each of the openings having a major axis along the data line and a minor axis along the gate line, wherein a center portion of each opening overlaps the pixel electrode, and both ends along the major axis of each opening protrude beyond the pixel electrode.
