Abstract

An exemplary liquid crystal display includes a first substrate ( 110 ), a second substrate ( 120 ) opposite to the first substrate, and a liquid crystal layer ( 130 ) therebetween. The first substrate includes a common electrode ( 140 ) having a plurality of slits ( 141 ). The second substrate includes a plurality of gate lines ( 121 ) and data lines ( 122 ). The slits are provided at positions corresponding to the gate lines and the data lines respectively.

Claims (15)

1. A liquid crystal display, comprising:

a first substrate comprising a common electrode having a plurality of slits;

a second substrate opposite to the first substrate, the second substrate comprising a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of data lines; and

a liquid crystal layer between the first substrate and the second substrate;

wherein the slits are provided at positions corresponding to the gate lines and the data lines respectively, and widths of the plurality of the slits are accordance with widths of the corresponding gate lines.

2. A liquid crystal display, comprising:

a first substrate comprising a common electrode having a plurality of slits;

a second substrate opposite to the first substrate, the second substrate comprising a plurality of gate lines and a plurality of data lines; and

a liquid crystal layer between the first substrate and the second substrate;

wherein the slits are provided at positions corresponding to the gate lines and the data lines respectively, and widths of the plurality of the slits are accordance with widths of the corresponding data lines.

3. The liquid crystal display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the common electrode is made from indium tin oxide.

4. The liquid crystal display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the common electrode is made from indium zinc oxide.

5. The liquid crystal display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein slits corresponding to a same one of the gate and data lines are connected in line, thereby dividing the common electrode into a plurality of common electrode units.

6. The liquid crystal display as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the second substrate comprises a plurality of connecting electrodes and a plurality of common lines, and the common electrode units are connected to the common lines by the connecting electrodes respectively.

7. The liquid crystal display as claimed in claim 1 , wherein adjacent slits are disconnected.
