Abstract

A liquid crystal display device according to the present invention comprises a first substrate and second substrate, a plurality of gate bus lines and data bus lines crossing each other over the first substrate, the gate bus lines and data bus lines defining a pixel region, a plurality of thin film transistors at the cross of the gate bus lines and the data bus lines, at least one pair of first data and common electrodes, which are parallel to the data bus lines, forming an electric field in the pixel region, a first alignment layer over the first substrate, at least one pair of second data and common electrodes forming an electric field on the second substrate, a second alignment layer over the second substrate, and a liquid crystal layer between the first substrate and second substrate.
