Abstract:
1. An active matrix substrate, comprising: a plurality of data signal lines; a plurality of scanning signal lines intersecting the plurality of data signal lines; a pixel switching element provided corresponding to each of intersections of the plurality of data signal lines and the plurality of scanning signal lines, the pixel switching element being turned on and off by the scanning signal line passing through the corresponding intersection; a pixel electrode connected to the data signal line passing through the intersection corresponding to the pixel switching element via the pixel switching element; charge sharing switching elements connected to the plurality of data signal lines so as to cause a short-circuit in its on-state between each of the plurality of data signal lines and another data signal line neighboring thereto in a direction in which the scanning signal line extends, two or more of the charge sharing switching elements being provided for each of the plurality of data signal lines in a direction in which the data signal line extends; and charge sharing control signal lines for turning on and off the charge sharing switching elements.
