A liquid crystal display includes first and second substrates. The first
substrate has a first insulating substrate, and a pixel electrode formed
on the first insulating substrate with a first opening pattern. The
second substrate has a second insulating substrate, and a common
electrode formed on the second insulating substrate with a second opening
pattern. The first and the second opening patterns proceed parallel to
each other while being arranged in an alternate manner. A liquid crystal
material is injected between the first and the second substrates. A
spacer is positioned at an end of the second opening pattern to maintain
the distance between the first and the second substrates.
