Abstract
Disclosed is a fringe field switching mode LCD. The disclosed comprises a first and a second transparent insulating substrates arranged opposite to each other with a predetermined distance, with a liquid crystal layer including a plurality of liquid crystal molecules interposed between them; a plurality of gate bus lines and data bus lines formed on the first transparent insulating substrate and arranged in a matrix form to define a unit pixel; a thin film transistor formed at the intersection of the gate bus line and the data bus line; a counter electrode disposed in each unit pixel, made of transparent conductor; and a pixel electrode arranged in each unit pixel to generate a fringe field with the counter electrode, being insulated with the counter electrode and made of transparent conductor and including a plurality of upper slits and lower slits symmetrical each other with respect to long side of the pixel with a predetermined tilted angle.
