Abstract
A liquid crystal display includes a first panel including a first electrode, which includes side electrodes in edge areas of a pixel, a central electrode connected to the side electrodes and disposed in a central area of the pixel, and fine branches, some of which are connected to the side electrode, a second panel in which a cutout, which corresponds to the first electrode and divides the fine branches, the central electrode and the side electrode into domains is defined, and which includes a second electrode, which is separated by the cutout and corresponds to each of the domains, where second slit patterns, which are provided by partially cutting out ends of the fine branches, separate the side electrodes and the fine branches from each other, and extend in parallel to a longitudinal direction of the side electrodes are defined in the first panel.
