Abstract

An active-matrix display device includes a pixel matrix having a plurality of pixel cells arranged in rows and columns, and a data line disposed for each of the columns in the pixel matrix and connected to each pixel cell in a column. Each pixel cell includes a holding capacitor, including a first electrode connected to a gate of the drive transistor, a lower electrode connected to a source of the drive transistor, and an upper electrode connected to the source of the drive transistor. At least one of the lower electrode and the upper electrode protrudes toward the data line from a facing region in a plan view of the pixel matrix, such that a protruded amount, which is an amount of protrusion toward the data line, is greater than or equal to 15% of a distance between the data line and the first electrode in the facing region.

Claims (15)

1. An active-matrix display device, comprising:

a pixel matrix that includes a plurality of pixel cells arranged in rows and columns; and

a data line that is disposed for each of the columns in the pixel matrix and is connected to each pixel cell of the plurality of pixel cells in the column,

wherein each pixel cell of the plurality of pixel cells includes

a holding capacitor, including

a first electrode that is connected to a gate of a drive transistor that drives a light-emitting element;

a lower electrode that is disposed lower than the first electrode and is connected to a source of the drive transistor; and

an upper electrode that is disposed higher than the first electrode and is connected to the source of the drive transistor,

the first electrode has a facing region that faces the data line connected to the pixel cell including the first electrode,

the lower electrode overlaps the first electrode at least in the facing region in a plan view of the pixel matrix,

the upper electrode overlaps the first electrode at least in the facing region in the plan view of the pixel matrix,

at least one of the lower electrode and the upper electrode protrudes toward the data line from the facing region, and

a protruded amount, which is an amount of protrusion toward the data line, is greater than or equal to 15% of a distance between the data line and the first electrode in the facing region.

2. The active-matrix display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein both of the lower electrode and the upper electrode protrude toward the data line from the facing region.
