Abstract

To provide a plural-viewpoint display device having an image separating optical element such as a lenticular lens or a parallax barrier, which is capable of arranging thin film transistors and wirings while achieving substantially trapezoid apertures and high numerical aperture, and to provide a driving method thereof, a terminal device, and a display panel. A neighboring pixel pair arranged with a gate line interposed therebetween is connected to the gate line placed between the pixels, each of the pixels configuring the neighboring pixel pair is connected to the data line different from each other, and each of the neighboring pixel pairs neighboring to each other in an extending direction of the gate lines is connected to the gate line different from each other.

Claims (12)

1. A display device, comprising:

data lines for supplying display data to pixels;

pixel switches for transmitting display data signals from the data lines to the pixels; and

gate lines for controlling the pixel switches,

wherein a neighboring pixel pair arranged with the gate line interposed therebetween is controlled by the gate line that is provided between those pixels, each of the pixels configuring the neighboring pixel pair is connected to the data line different from each other, and each of the neighboring pixel pairs neighboring to each other in an extending direction of the gate lines is connected to the gate line different from each other,

wherein a storage capacitance for storing display data is provided to the pixel, and a storage capacitance line for connecting the storage capacitance of each pixel connects the storage capacitances of the pixels that are neighboring to each other in the extending direction of the gate lines, and

wherein a structure for reducing capacitance coupling is provided at a part of the data line or a part of the storage capacitance line.

2. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the structure for reducing capacitance coupling is a gouged hole formed in a part of the storage capacitance line or in a part of the data line.

3. The display device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the structure for reducing capacitance coupling is a gouged-out shape formed in a part of the storage capacitance line or in a part of the data line.

4. The display device as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the data line and the storage capacitance line are formed as different layers, and are provided in a laminated manner between apertures of pixels neighboring to each other in the extending direction of the gate lines, and

wherein the data line and the storage capacitance line are provided between the apertures in a manner that no gap is formed between the data line and the storage capacitance line.
