Abstract

A liquid crystal display panel including a first substrate, a second substrate, a liquid crystal layer and an electrode structure is provided. The liquid crystal layer is located between the first substrate and the second substrate. The electrode structure is disposed on the first substrate and comprises a first and a second sub-electrodes. The first and the second sub-electrodes are separated from each other and respectively comprises first and second branch portions. The first branch portion comprises a plurality of first branch electrodes. Two adjacent first branch electrodes are substantially parallel to each other and separated from each other by a first interval. The second branch portion comprises a plurality of second branch electrodes. Two adjacent second branch electrodes are substantially parallel to each other and separated from each other by a second interval.

Claims (18)

1. A liquid crystal display panel, comprising:

a first substrate;

a second substrate;

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

an electrode structure disposed on the first substrate, wherein the electrode structure comprises first and second sub-electrodes, wherein the first and the second sub-electrodes are separated from each other and respectively comprises first and second branch portions,

wherein the first branch portion comprises a plurality of first branch electrodes, and two adjacent first branch electrodes are substantially parallel to each other and separated from each other by a first interval, the second branch portion comprises a plurality of second branch electrodes, two adjacent second branch electrodes are substantially parallel to each other and separated from each other by a second interval, and

wherein at least one end edge of the first branch electrodes exactly corresponds to one of the second intervals, and at least one end edge of the second branch electrodes exactly corresponds to one of the first intervals.

2. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 , wherein each end edge of the first branch electrodes exactly corresponds to one of the second intervals, and each end edge of the second branch electrodes exactly corresponds to one of the first intervals.

3. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the electrode structure further comprises:

a first stem electrode, wherein the first branch electrodes are connected to the first stem electrode; and

a second stem electrode, wherein the second branch electrodes are connected to the second stem electrode.

4. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 3 , wherein the first stem electrode is cross-shaped, and the second stem electrode is cross-shaped.

5. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 3 , wherein an extended line of the first stem electrode corresponds to an extended line of the second stem electrode.

6. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the electrode structure further comprises a stem electrode, wherein the first branch portion and the second branch portion are connected to two opposite sides of the stem electrode, respectively.

7. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 6 , wherein the stem electrode is cross-shaped.

8. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 , wherein the end edge of each first branch electrode is located on a first dummy line, the end edge of each second branch electrode is located on a second dummy line, and the first dummy line is substantially parallel to the second dummy line.

9. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 8 , wherein the length of one of the first intervals and one of the first branch electrodes being on the first dummy line is a unit length, the length of one of the second intervals and one of the second branch electrodes being on the second dummy line is the unit length, and at least one of the first dummy line and the second dummy line are separated apart by a half of the unit length.

10. The liquid crystal display panel according to claim 1 , wherein two corners of each first branch electrode are both 90°, and two corners of each second branch electrode are both 90°.
