An in-plane switching mode liquid crystal display device includes a
substrate; at least two gate lines disposed on the substrate; at least
two data lines disposed on the substrate crossing the gate lines to
define a pixel region; a driving device disposed in the pixel region; a
plurality of first electrodes disposed in the pixel region; and a
plurality of second electrodes disposed in the pixel region parallel with
the first electrodes. At least one first electrode is overlapped with at
least one second electrode. Further, each one of the first electrodes and
a corresponding one of second electrodes defining an electric field in a
direction parallel to a surface of the substrate.
