Abstract

An in-plane switching mode transflective liquid crystal display device includes: first and second substrates; a gate line and a data line on an inner surface of the first substrate, the gate line and the data line crossing each other to define a pixel region; a common line parallel to the gate line; a thin film transistor connected to the gate and data lines; a first passivation layer over the thin film transistor; a reflecting layer over the first passivation layer; a second passivation layer over the reflecting layer; a pixel electrode over the second passivation layer; a third passivation layer over the pixel electrode; a common electrode over the third passivation layer, the common electrode connected to the common line, the common electrode including a plurality of first openings along a first direction in the transmissive area and a plurality of second openings along a second direction different from the first direction in the reflective area; a color filter layer on an inner surface of the second substrate; and a liquid crystal layer between the first and second substrate.
