Abstract
A liquid crystal display including a first substrate, a pixel electrode on the first substrate and including a first subpixel electrode and a second subpixel electrode separated from the first subpixel electrode, a second substrate facing the first substrate, a common electrode on the second substrate, and a liquid crystal layer between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the first subpixel electrode includes a first plate-shaped portion and first branch electrodes extending from the first plate-shaped portion, wherein the second subpixel electrode includes a second plate-shaped portion configured to enclose surroundings of the first branch electrode and second branch electrodes extending from the second plate-shaped portion, and wherein a difference between a first voltage applied to the first subpixel electrode and a common voltage applied to the common electrode is larger than a difference between a second voltage applied to the second subpixel electrode and the common voltage.
