Abstract:
1. A display device, comprising: a first base substrate; a line part comprising a plurality of gate lines, which extend in a first direction, disposed on the first base substrate and a plurality of data lines, which extend in a second direction, crossing and insulated from the gate lines to define a plurality of pixel areas disposed on the first base substrate; a plurality of pixels arranged in the pixel areas, respectively; a second base substrate facing the first base substrate; a color filter layer arranged on one of the first base substrate and the second base substrate and comprising a plurality of color filters corresponding to the pixels in a one-to-one fashion; and a common electrode arranged on one of the first base substrate and the second base substrate, wherein each of the pixels comprises a horizontal pixel structure in which a length in the first direction is longer than a length in the second direction, the pixels are divided into a plurality of pixel columns, each column comprising three pixels successively arranged in the second direction, the three pixels are connected to three gate lines successively arranged among the gate lines, respectively, at least two pixel pairs included in one pixel column of the pixel columns are alternatively connected to two data lines adjacent to each other among the data lines, and the color filters comprise a first sub color filter, a second sub color filter, and a third sub color filter, repeatedly arranged in the first direction and the second direction to represent different colors, respectively.
