Abstract

A pixels group includes first to fourth pixels disposed in a 2*2 matrix. Each of the first to fourth pixels includes first to third sub-pixels. Each of the first sub-pixels of first to fourth pixels has a first color. The second sub-pixel of first pixel and the second sub-pixel of fourth pixel have a second color. The third sub-pixel of first pixel and the third sub-pixel of fourth pixel have a third color. The second sub-pixel of second pixel and the second sub-pixel of third pixel have a fourth color. The third sub-pixel of second pixel and the third sub-pixel of third pixel has a fifth color.

wherein:

each of the first sub-pixels (SPnl) of the first to fourth pixels has a same first color,

the second sub-pixel of the first pixel (SP 12 ) and the second sub-pixel of the fourth pixel (SP 42 ) have a same second color which is different from the first color,

the third sub-pixel of the first pixel (SP 13 ) and the third sub-pixel of the fourth pixel (SP 43 ) have a same third color which is different from the first and second colors,

the second sub-pixel of the second pixel (SP 22 ) and the second sub-pixel of the third pixel (SP 32 ) have a same fourth color which is different from the first through third colors,

the third sub-pixel of the second pixel (SP 23 ) and the third sub-pixel of the third pixel (SP 33 ) have a same fifth color which is different from the first through fourth colors; and

each of the respective fourth sub-pixels (SPn 4 ) of the first to fourth pixels respectively has a yellow color which is different from the first through fifth colors.

2. The pixels group of claim 1 , wherein the first to fifth colors are respective ones selected from the group consisting of red, green, blue, cyan and magenta.

3. The pixels group of claim 2 , wherein the first color is red.

4. The pixels group of claim 3 , wherein the respective first to third subpixels of the respective first to fourth pixels are sequentially disposed in a line in each respective pixel.

5. The pixels group of claim 1 , wherein at least two of the sub-pixels among the first to third sub-pixels of the first to fourth pixels, have respective differently sized aperture areas for letting light pass through.

6. A pixels group comprising:

first to fourth pixels disposed in a 2 pixels by 2 pixels matrix; and

each n-th one of the first to fourth pixels respectively comprising a first subpixel (SPn 1 ), a second subpixel (SPn 2 ), a third sub-pixel (SPn 3 ) and a fourth sub-pixel (SPn 4 ) respectively positioned in a same way in the respective pixel, where n is a positive integer less than 5;

wherein:

each of the first sub-pixels (SPn 1 ) of the first to fourth pixels has a same first color,

the second sub-pixel of the first pixel (SP 12 ) and the second sub-pixel of the fourth pixel (SP 42 ) have a same second color which is different from the first color,

the third sub-pixel of the first pixel (SP 13 ) and the third sub-pixel of the fourth pixel (SP 43 ) have a same third color which is different from the first and second colors,

the second sub-pixel of the second pixel (SP 22 ) and the second sub-pixel of the third pixel (SP 32 ) have a same fourth color which is different from the first through third colors,

the third sub-pixel of the second pixel (SP 23 ) and the third sub-pixel of the third pixel (SP 33 ) have a same fifth color which is different from the first through fourth colors, and

each of the respective fourth sub-pixels (SPn 4 ) of the first to fourth pixels respectively has a sixth color which is different from the first through fifth colors.

7. The pixels group of claim 6 , wherein the first to sixth colors are respective ones selected from the group consisting of red, green, blue, cyan, yellow and magenta.

8. The pixels group of claim 6 , wherein the first color is red, and the sixth color is yellow.

9. The pixels group of claim 8 , wherein the respective first to fourth sub pixels of the respective first to fourth pixels are sequentially disposed in a line in each respective pixel.

10. A display panel comprising:

an array substrate comprising a first substrate and a thin film transistor disposed on the first substrate; and

an opposite substrate comprising a second substrate, color filters disposed under the second substrate and denoted as first to fifth color filters of corresponding colors, and a black matrix disposed between the color filters to compart the color filters so as to define a pixels group repeated across a display area of the display panel, the pixels group comprising:

first to fourth pixels disposed in a 2 pixels by 2 pixels matrix; and

each n-th one of the first to fourth pixels respectively comprising a first subpixel (SPn 1 ), a second subpixel (SPn 2 ), a third sub-pixel (SPn 3 ), and a fourth sub-pixel (SPn 4 ) respectively positioned in a same way in the respective pixel, where n is a positive integer less than 5,

wherein:

each of the first sub-pixels (SPn 1 ) of the first to fourth pixels has a same first color,

the second sub-pixel of the first pixel (SP 12 ) and the second sub-pixel of the fourth pixel (SP 42 ) have a same second color which is different from the first color,

the third sub-pixel of the first pixel (SP 13 ) and the third sub-pixel of the fourth pixel (SP 43 ) have a same third color which is different from the first and second colors,

the second sub-pixel of the second pixel (SP 22 ) and the second sub-pixel of the third pixel (SP 32 ) have a same fourth color which is different from the first through third colors,

the third sub-pixel of the second pixel (SP 23 ) and the third sub-pixel of the third pixel (SP 33 ) have a same fifth color which is different from the first through fourth colors and
