Abstract

A liquid crystal display device for eliminating a vertical dimming phenomenon to improve a picture quality of a liquid crystal display panel is disclosed. In the device, first and second data lines are supplied with data. A first pixel electrode is spaced at a desired distance from the first data line. A second pixel electrode is spaced, by a distance different from said distance between the first data line and the first pixel electrode, from the second data line.

Claims (26)

1. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:

a first data line supplied with data;

a second data line supplied with said data and having a different width from the first data line;

a first pixel electrode spaced at a desired distance from the first data line; and

a second pixel electrode spaced at a desired distance from the second data line and spaced apart from the second data line by a distance different from said distance between the first data line and the first pixel electrode,

wherein a parasitic capacitance between the second pixel electrode and the second data line has at least three times larger value than a parasitic capacitance between the first pixel electrode and the first data line.

2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first pixel electrode and the second pixel electrode have a different size from each other.

3. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second pixel electrodes are supplied with data having the same polarity.

4. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein said data have data polarity patterns inverted for each two pixel electrodes in the horizontal direction while having data polarity patterns inverted for each one pixel electrode in the vertical direction.

5. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:

a first data line supplied with a signal;

a second data line supplied with said signal and parallel to the first data line;

a protrusion electrode protruding from the second data line;

a first pixel electrode spaced at a desired distance from the first data line; and

a second pixel electrode spaced at a desired distance from the second data line and overlapped with the protrusion electrode at a portion thereof so that parasitic capacitance between the second pixel electrode and the second data line has at least three times larger value than a parasitic capacitance between the first pixel electrode and the first data line.

6. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 5 , wherein the first pixel electrode has the same dimension as the second pixel electrode.

7. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 5 , wherein the first and second pixel electrodes are supplied with signals having the same polarity.

8. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 5 , wherein said signals have polarity inverted for each two pixel electrodes in the horizontal direction while having polarity inverted for each one pixel electrode in the vertical direction.

9. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:

first and second data lines supplied with signals;

a first pixel electrode spaced at a predetermined distance from the first data line;

a second pixel electrode spaced at a second predetermined distance from the second data line; and

a protrusion electrode protruded from the second pixel electrode into the second data line and overlapped with the second data line at a portion thereof so that parasitic capacitance between the second pixel electrode and the second data line has at least three times larger value than a parasitic capacitance between the first pixel electrode and the first data line.

10. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 9 , wherein the first pixel electrode has the same dimension as the second pixel electrode.

11. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 9 , wherein the first and second pixel electrodes are supplied with signals having the same polarity.

12. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 9 , wherein said signals have polarity inverted for each two pixel electrodes in the horizontal direction while having polarity inverted for each one pixel electrode in the vertical direction.
