Abstract

A thin film transistor array substrate having a pixel arrangement structure includes a first sub-pixel for displaying a first color and a second sub-pixel for displaying a second color alternately located in a first column, and a third sub-pixel for displaying a third color in a second column adjacent to the first column, and via holes of the first through third sub-pixels in a same row are at different positions.

Claims (31)

1. A display device comprising:

a first pixel circuit disposed in a first column;

a first pixel electrode connected to the first pixel circuit;

a first data line disposed in the first column and extended in a first direction; and

a pixel defining layer defined a first opening corresponding to a part of the first pixel electrode,

wherein a part of the first data line is overlapped with the first opening.

2. The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a second pixel circuit disposed in a second column adjacent to the first column; and

a second pixel electrode connected to the second pixel circuit and adjacent to the first pixel electrode in the first direction;

wherein a second opening corresponding to a part of the second pixel electrode is defined in the pixel defining layer, and

wherein the part of the first data line is overlapped with the first opening and the second opening of the pixel defining layer.

3. The display device of claim 2 , wherein the first data line is connected to the first pixel circuit.

4. The display device of claim 3 , further comprising an insulating layer disposed between the first pixel circuit and the first pixel electrode and between the second pixel circuit and the second pixel electrode,

wherein a first via hole corresponding to a part of the first pixel electrode and a second via hole corresponding to a part of the second pixel electrode are defined in the insulating layer, and

wherein the second via hole is opposite to the first via hole based on the first data line.

5. The display device of claim 4 , further comprising:

a third pixel circuit disposed in a third column adjacent to the first column; and

a third pixel electrode connected to the third pixel circuit and adjacent to the first pixel electrode in the first direction;

a second data line disposed in the second column and connected to the second pixel circuit; and

a third data line disposed in the third column and connected to the third pixel circuit;

wherein the first column is between the second column and the third column.

6. The display device of claim 5 , further comprising:

wherein a third opening corresponding to a part of the third pixel electrode is defined in the pixel defining layer, and

wherein the third opening of the pixel defining layer is separated from the third data line.

7. The display device of claim 6 ,

wherein a third via hole corresponding to a part of the third pixel electrode is defined in the insulating layer,

wherein a first imaginary straight line connecting respective centers of first via hole and the second via hole and a second imaginary straight line connecting respective centers of first via hole and the third via hole are not substantially parallel with the first direction and a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

8. The display device of claim 6 , wherein a length of the third pixel electrode in the first direction is longer than a length of the first pixel electrode in the first direction and a length of the second pixel electrode in the first direction.

9. The display device of claim 7 , wherein each of the first opening, the second opening and the third opening does not overlap each of the first via hole, the second via hole and the third via hole.

10. The display device of claim 1 , further comprising a driving voltage line connected to the first pixel circuit, and

wherein the first data line is disposed between the driving voltage line and the first pixel electrode in a cross-sectional view.
