In-plane switching liquid crystal display device that can achieve homogeneous shading
View Patent ↗A liquid crystal display device includes an arrangement of pixels, wherein each of the pixels includes at least three subpixels, wherein the second subpixel is a Red subpixel, in contrast to the traditional Red-Green-Blue subpixel configuration. Further, a signal line is disposed next to each of the subpixels, but a common line is disposed next to a subpixel which is not a Red subpixel. Thus, the second subpixel, which is a Red subpixel, has on both sides thereof signal lines, but lacks a common line next thereto.
1. A liquid crystal display device, comprising:
a first substrate on a display surface side;
a second substrate on a rear surface side;
a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate;
three common lines arranged along a first direction on the second substrate;
a pixel including a red subpixel, a green subpixel, a blue subpixel, and another subpixel,
wherein the red subpixel is arranged between the green subpixel and the blue subpixel along a second direction, and
the red subpixel, the green subpixel, and the blue subpixel are interposed between first and second of the three common lines;
the another subpixel is interposed between second and third of the three common lines; and
five signal lines arranged along the first direction on the second substrate,
wherein each of the five signal lines is arranged adjacent to at least one of the red subpixel, the green subpixel, the blue subpixel, and the another subpixel in plan view,
first of the three common lines overlaps a first of the five signal lines in plan view,
second of the three common lines overlaps a fourth of the five signal lines in plan view,
third of the three common lines overlaps a fifth of the five signal lines in plan view, and
at least one of the three common lines or the five signal lines includes copper.
2. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , the another subpixel is a yellow subpixel.
3. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the red subpixel is not adjacent to any of the three common lines in plan view.
4. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the five signal lines are closer to the liquid crystal layer than the three common lines.
5. The liquid crystal display device according to claim 1 , wherein the three common lines are closer to the liquid crystal layer than the five signal lines.
