Abstract:
1. A liquid crystal display, comprising: a first substrate; a gate line disposed on the first substrate to transmit a first gate signal; a data line disposed on the first substrate and crossing the gate line to transmit a data voltage; a boosting gate line disposed on the first substrate to transmit a second gate signal; a pixel electrode disposed on the first substrate and comprising a first subpixel electrode and a second subpixel electrode; a first switching element comprising a first gate electrode connected to the gate line, a first source electrode connected to the data line, and a first drain electrode connected to the first subpixel electrode; a second switching element comprising a second gate electrode connected to the gate line, a second source electrode connected to the data line, and a second drain electrode connected to the second subpixel electrode; a boosting capacitor comprising a first terminal connected to the first subpixel electrode; a third switching element comprising a third gate electrode connected to the gate line, a third source electrode, and a third drain electrode connected to a second terminal of the boosting capacitor; and a fourth switching element comprising a fourth gate electrode connected to the boosting gate line, a fourth source electrode connected to the second subpixel electrode, and a fourth drain electrode connected to the second terminal of the boosting capacitor, wherein the boosting gate line is not directly connected to any switching element which is connected to the data line.
