Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising: a first substrate having a display region that includes a plurality of display sub-regions that are regularly spaced according to a first pitch dimension; a second substrate spaced apart from and facing the first substrate; and a liquid crystal material layer disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, the first substrate comprising: wherein the ballasting resistors have their respective resistances predominantly defined by a second conductive material having a respective second conductivity that is less than the first conductivity of the first conductive material of the gate main lines; and wherein at least two of the ballasting resistors respectively have different resistances and different lengths, the length of each respective resistor being in inverse proportion to a linear distance between the first end of the corresponding gate main line and the corresponding gate pad; wherein each ballasting resistor comprises a same conductive material layer as included in the pixel electrodes layer, said material layer of each ballasting resistor also overlapping the passivation layer and the gate insulating layer, wherein the gate outer circumference is interposed between the gate pads and their corresponding ballasting resistors, wherein the gate outer circumference has an anti-static diode which is electrically connected to the electrostatic bar, and wherein the storage electrode line is formed within one of the display sub regions, so as to be elongated in parallel with the corresponding gate main line of that display sub region.
