Liquid crystal display device and method of repairing bad pixels therein

摘要

A liquid crystal display device and a method of repairing bad pixels thereof, in which the bad pixels can be efficiently and easily repaired, includes a first insulating substrate, a gate wiring and a storage wiring arranged substantially parallel to each other in a first direction on the first insulating substrate, a data wiring intersecting the gate and storage wirings in an insulated manner and arranged substantially in a second direction, and a pixel electrode formed on a pixel area defined by the gate and data wirings. The storage wiring includes a horizontal portion arranged substantially in the first direction and at least a part of which does not overlap the pixel electrode, and a vertical portion branching off substantially in the second direction from the horizontal portion and overlapping the data wiring.

主权项

1. A liquid crystal display device comprising:
an insulating substrate; a gate line arranged in a first direction on the insulating substrate; a plurality of data lines intersecting and insulated from the gate line and arranged substantially in a second direction; a thin film transistor connected to the gate line and at least one of the data lines, the thin film transistor having an active layer and source and drain electrodes each at least partially overlapping the active layer; a pixel electrode electrically connected to the drain electrode; and a storage wiring having first portions each extending along and overlapping a respective one of the data lines, and a second portion connecting adjacent first portions; wherein the second portion includes a wiring having a width, the wiring positioned so that the entire width of the wiring extends beyond an edge of the pixel electrode.
