Abstract

A display and a method for manufacturing said display is disclosed wherein said display is comprised of at least a first set of subpixels and a second set of subpixels—said first set of subpixels comprising smaller area than said second subpixels. The thin film transistors that drive said first set of subpixels are formed substantially in the area of said second set of subpixels.

Claims (11)

1. A display comprising:

a plurality of first subpixels;

a plurality of second subpixels, wherein said first subpixels have a smaller size than said second subpixels; and

a plurality of transistors driving said first and said second subpixels wherein said transistors for said first subpixels are formed in the area of said second subpixels.

2. The display of claim 1 wherein said plurality of first subpixels comprise a first color filter and said plurality of second subpixels comprise a second color filter and a third color filter.

3. The display of claim 2 wherein said second color filter is blue and said plurality of transistors driving said plurality of said first subpixels are formed in said blue color filtered subpixels.

4. A method for manufacturing in a LCD display wherein said LCD display comprises at least a first set of subpixels and a second set of subpixels wherein said first set of subpixels comprise a smaller area than said second set of subpixels and further wherein said first and said second subpixels are driven by a set of thin film transistors; the steps of said method comprising:

forming a thin film transistor backplane such that a plurality of thin film transistors driving a subset of said first set of subpixels are formed substantially in the area of said second set of subpixels.

5. The method of claim 4 wherein said first set of subpixels comprises green subpixels.

6. The method of claim 4 wherein said first set of subpixels comprises blue subpixels.

7. The method of claim 4 wherein said thin film transistors are formed in a subset of said second set of subpixels, said subset of said second set of subpixels comprising substantially blue subpixels.
