Abstract

Disclosed is a touch screen liquid crystal display device (LCD) that includes a first substrate that includes a plurality of pixels defined by crossings of gate lines and data lines, each pixel including a thin film transistor; a second substrate that includes a color filter and a black matrix; a liquid crystal layer between the first substrate and the second substrate; a plurality of gap column spacers on the second substrate and contacting the first substrate; a press column spacer on the second substrate and spaced apart from the first substrate; and a third substrate attached to the second substrate, wherein the plurality of gap column spacers have a density of 0.05% to 0.11% with respect to a display region of the first substrate.

Claims (22)

1. A touch screen liquid crystal display device (LCD) comprising:

a first substrate that includes a plurality of pixels defined by crossings of gate lines and data lines, each pixel including a thin film transistor;

a second substrate that includes a color filter and a black matrix;

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

a plurality of gap column spacers on the second substrate and contacting the first substrate;

a press column spacer on the second substrate and spaced apart from the first substrate; and

a third substrate attached to the second substrate,

wherein the plurality of gap column spacers have a density of 0.08% to 0.11% with respect to a display region of the first substrate.

2. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers are positioned at a region of the black matrix, and each of the plurality of gap column spacers corresponds to at least one of the thin film transistor, the data line, or the gate line.

3. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the press column spacer is at a region of the black matrix, and the press column spacer corresponds to at least one of the thin film transistor, the data line, or the gate line.

4. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers and the press column spacer are each formed of an organic insulating material.

5. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the second substrate and the third substrate are attached to each other through an optical adhesive.

6. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers have a density of 0.0575% to 0.1025% with respect to the display region of the touch screen LCD.

7. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers have a density of 0.095% to 0.11% with respect to the display region of the touch screen LCD.

8. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers have a density of 0.1025% to 0.11% with respect to the display region of the touch screen LCD.

9. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers have a density of 0.095% to 0.1025% with respect to the display region of the touch screen LCD.

10. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers have a density of 0.0875% to 0.095% with respect to the display region of the touch screen LCD.

11. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers have a density of 0.08% to 0.0875% with respect to the display region of the touch screen LCD.

12. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers have a density of 0.0875% to 0.1025% with respect to the display region of the touch screen LCD.

13. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of gap column spacers are more highly concentrated at a peripheral portion of the touch screen LCD than at a center portion of the touch screen LCD.

14. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the density is an area density that describes a ratio of a total area of the plurality of gap column spacers that are in contact with the first substrate and a total area of the display region of the first substrate.

15. The LCD of claim 1 , wherein the third substrate includes a touch screen.
