Abstract
A liquid crystal display includes a substrate, a gate line, a data line, first and second reference voltage lines disposed on the substrate, first and second subpixel electrodes disposed in one pixel area, and first to third switching elements. The first and second reference voltage lines apply first and second reference voltages. The first and second subpixel electrodes include a plate portion and a plurality of branch portions extending from the plate portion. The first and second reference voltage lines include a first portion overlapping the first subpixel electrode and the second subpixel electrode. The first portion overlaps the plate portion of the first and second subpixel electrodes. A voltage difference between the first subpixel electrode and a common voltage is larger than a voltage difference between the second subpixel electrode and the common voltage.
