1. A liquid crystal display comprising:

  • a first substrate and a second substrate opposed to each other with liquid crystal therebetween, the first substrate having a plurality of drain signal lines and a plurality of gate signal lines; and

    a plurality of pixel areas defined by the drain signal lines and the gate signal lines, the pixel areas having;

    a first electrode formed of a transparent conducting layer having a plurality of slits;

    a second electrode formed of a transparent conducting layer without slits; and

    an insulating layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode;

    wherein the second electrode is overlapped with all of the slits of the first electrode in the pixel area, the first electrode is overlapped with the drain signal line, and the first electrode and the second electrode overlap one another proximate to the drain signal line; and

    wherein at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode is formed between the first substrate and the liquid crystal layer in the pixel area.
