Abstract:
A liquid crystal display capable of being repaired for defects in data lines, the liquid crystal display comprising:a plurality of scan lines and a plurality of data lines intersecting the scan lines in perpendicular substantially, the scan lines and the data lines defining a plurality of pixel regions, each of the pixel regions being defined by a pair of the scan lines and a pair of the data lines; a plurality of transparent pixel electrodes, each of the transparent pixel electrodes being disposed within the pixel regions respectively; a plurality of switching devices corresponding to the pixel regions respectively, each of the switching devices being connected to a corresponding one of the data lines and a corresponding one of the scan lines; a plurality of first storage capacitors, each of the first storage capacitors being disposed within one of the pixel regions, each of the first storage capacitors including a first capacitor electrode and a first common electrode, each of the first capacitor electrodes being electrically connected to a corresponding one of the transparent pixel electrodes; a plurality of second storage capacitors, each of the second storage capacitors being disposed within one of the pixel regions, each of the second storage capacitors including a second capacitor electrode and a second common electrode, each of the second capacitor electrodes being electrically connected to a corresponding one of the transparent pixel electrodes; a plurality of first ring-type conductors, each of the first ring-type conductors being disposed between two adjacent scan lines of the scan lines and corresponding to one of the data lines, each of the first ring-type conductors being coupled to the first common electrode of two adjacent pixel regions of the pixel regions, and insulatingly intersecting corresponding data lines at a first intersection and a second intersection in perpendicular substantially; and a plurality of second ring-type conductors, each of the second ring-type conductors being disposed between two adjacent scan lines of the scan lines and corresponding to one of the data lines, each of the second ring-type conductors being coupled to the second common electrode of two adjacent pixel regions of the pixel regions, and insulatingly intersecting corresponding data lines at a third intersection and a fourth intersection in perpendicular substantially.
