Liquid crystal display device having stripe-shaped color filters
A liquid crystal display device has stripe-shaped color filters and arranges the driver ICs on the top or the bottom side portion, and on the left or right side portion of the liquid crystal panel such that the liquid crystal display device has a single bank structure. Accordingly, a difference of a signal delay between the adjacent two odd and even data or gate lines is prevented. As a result, the brightness and the resolution are improved.

7 . A method of fabricating a liquid crystal display device, comprising:
forming a plurality of gate and data lines on a first substrate;
forming a black matrix on a second substrate;
forming open portions for color filters by patterning the black matrix;
depositing a resin on the black matrix covering the open portions, wherein the resin has one of red, green, blue and white colors;
forming color filters in the open portions by photolithography, the color filters having a stripe shape;
forming a liquid crystal panel by combining the first and second substrates with interposed liquid crystal;
installing data driver integrated circuits (ICs) on one side portion of the liquid crystal panel, wherein the data driver ICs drive the plural data lines; and
installing gate driver integrated circuits (ICs) on one side portion of the liquid crystal panel, wherein the gate driver ICs drive the plural gate lines.
8 . A method according to claim 7 , wherein the stripe-shaped color filter having a white color is made of a transparent resin.
9 . A method according to claim 7 , wherein the stripe-shaped color filter having a white color is an open portion of the black matrix.

16 . A method of driving a liquid crystal panel, including a first substrate having deposited thereon a plurality of stripe-shaped color filters and a black matrix arranged around the stripe-shaped color filters, wherein each color filter has one of red, green, blue and white colors, and including a second substrate disposed opposing the first substrate and having a plurality of gate lines arranged in a transverse direction, a plurality of data lines arranged in a longitudinal direction and a plurality of sub-pixels each formed at an intersection of one of the gate lines and data lines, and further including a liquid crystal material deposited between the first and second substrates, the method comprising:
driving the data lines, each data line driving sub-pixels corresponding to a same one of the red, green, blue of white colors;
driving the gate lines, alternating a polarity of a gate line driving signal for each of the gate lines at each frame interval.
17 . The method of claim 16 , further comprising alternating polarities of the gate line driving signals for adjacent gate lines during a same frame interval.
