Display panel with alternating sub-pixel electrodes

摘要

A display panel includes a first sub-pixel electrode and a second sub-pixel electrode alternating with each other to form a horizontal electric field, a first data line transmitting a first data voltage to the first sub-pixel electrode, and a second data line transmitting a second data voltage to the second sub-pixel electrode, wherein the second sub-pixel electrode is formed to overlap the first and second data lines.

主权项

1. A display panel comprising:
a plurality of gate lines disposed on a substrate that extend in a first direction; a plurality of first data lines that extend in a second direction, crossing the plurality of gate lines and transmitting a first data voltage; a plurality of second data lines parallel with the plurality of first data lines and transmitting a second data voltage; and a plurality of pixels defined by the plurality of gate lines and the plurality of first data lines, each of the plurality of pixels including first and second sub-pixel electrodes alternating with each other to form a horizontal electric field, wherein the second sub-pixel electrode is formed along the first and second data lines and the gate line of a previous first sub-pixel electrode, wherein the second sub-pixel electrode overlaps the first and second data lines without crossing the first and second data lines, wherein the first sub-pixel electrode does not overlap the first and second data lines and the second sub-pixel electrode, wherein an overlap area between the second sub-pixel electrode and the first data line is the same as that between the second sub-pixel electrode and the second data line, wherein the first sub-pixel electrode includes first stripes that extend in a third direction, first stripes that extend in a fourth direction, and a first connecting portion that connects the first stripes extending in the third direction and the first stripes extending in the fourth direction, and wherein the second sub-pixel electrode includes second stripes that extend in the third direction, second stripes that extend in the fourth direction, and a second connecting portion that connects the second stripes extending in the third direction and the second stripes extending in the fourth direction, and wherein the third direction is different from the first direction, the second direction and the fourth direction.
