In-plane switching LCD device
View Patent ↗The present invention concerns a liquid crystal display device including: a substrate; a plurality of thin film transistors each including a gate electrode, a source electrode, and a drain electrode; a gate line and a data line electrically connecting with the gate electrode and the source electrode, respectively; and a pixel electrode electrically connecting with the drain electrode, wherein overlapping widths between the gate electrode and the source and drain electrodes vary in accordance with the position of the thin film transistor.
1. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:
a substrate;
a plurality of thin film transistors, each including a gate electrode, a source electrode, and a drain electrode;
a gate line electrically connected with the gate electrode;
a data line electrically connected with the source electrode;
a common line on the substrate and parallel with the gate line;
a plurality of pixel electrodes electrically connecting with the drain electrode; and
a plurality of common electrodes integrally connected to the common line, wherein the plurality of common electrodes and plurality of pixel electrodes are spaced apart from each other and arranged in an alternating pattern.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein a distance between the source electrode and the drain electrode is constant.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the width of the overlapping portion of the gate electrode and the drain electrode varies in accordance with the position of the respective one of the thin film transistors along the gate line.
