1. A liquid crystal display comprising:
- a first substrate;
a sensor pad disposed on the first substrate;
a second substrate which faces the first substrate;
a sensor spacer disposed on the second substrate, wherein the sensor spacer is spaced apart from the sensor pad of the first substrate, and comprises a sensor electrode disposed on a portion of the sensor spacer which faces the sensor pad of the first substrate;
a supporting spacer disposed on the second substrate and spaced apart from the first substrate;
a supporting dielectric portion disposed between the supporting spacer and the first substrate, the supporting dielectric portion having a cross sectional area substantially similar to that of the supporting spacer in a plan view and which uniformly maintains a cell gap between the first substrate and the second substrate; and
a liquid crystal layer which is interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate.

Abstract
A liquid crystal display (“LCD”) includes: a first substrate; a sensor pad disposed on the first substrate; a second substrate which faces the first substrate; a sensor spacer and a supporting spacer disposed on the second substrate; and a supporting dielectric portion disposed between the supporting spacer and the first substrate. The sensor spacer is spaced apart from the sensor pad, and includes a sensor electrode disposed on a portion of the sensor spacer which faces the sensor pad. The supporting spacer is spaced apart from the first substrate, and the supporting dielectric portion uniformly maintains a cell gap between the first substrate and the second substrate.
