Liquid crystal displays including closed loop repair lines and methods of repairing same

摘要

Repair lines for liquid crystal or other flat panel displays are provided as closed loops by utilizing a second substrate and at least one third substrate between the liquid crystal display thin film transistor substrate and the second substrate. By using closed loop repair lines, more than one data line can be repaired using a single repair line. Moreover, the resistance and/or capacitance may be decreased by using a shorter path than may be the case for an open loop repair line.
