Abstract
A liquid crystal display device includes first and second substrates and a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween. The first substrate includes first and second electrodes separated by an insulation interlayer provided for each pixel. The second electrode has a plurality of slits. An alignment of liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer is controlled by operation of first and second transistors to control an electric field between the first and second electrodes. The first transistor includes a drain electrode coupled to the first electrode, and the second transistor includes a drain electrode coupled to the second electrode. The second transistor is switched in synchronization with the first transistor.
