## Background
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a display technology field, and more particular to a liquid crystal display device and an array substrate of the same.
2. Description of Related Art
A display panel is a main part of a liquid crystal display device. The main structure of the display panel includes an array substrate, a color filter substrate disposed oppositely, and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the array substrate and the color filter substrate. Wherein, the liquid crystal display device shows a color image through color resists on the color filter substrate. With reference to FIG. 1, and FIG. 1 is a pixel structure of an array substrate in the conventional art. The arrangement way is called a pen-tile way, that is, multiple gate lines G and multiple data lines D are intersected and perpendicular with each other. A pixel electrode P is located at an area defined by a gate line G and a data line D. Correspondingly, the color resists on the color filter substrate and the pixel electrodes P are correspondingly one by one.
Currently, the color resists on the color filter substrate are formed by a mask and through an exposing process. The mask is provided with an opening (equal to an area where each pixel electrode is located as shown in FIG. 1) corresponding to each color resist, and between adjacent two openings, a shielding portion is provided (equal to an area between two adjacent two pixel electrodes). In the exposing process, when a light pass through the two adjacent openings, a slit diffraction phenomenon is generated at the shielding portion such that an edge of the color resist generates a bias because of the exposing process. As a result, when the display panel is displaying, a black matrix (BM) located between two adjacent color resists cannot entirely block all of the light from the pixel electrodes of the array substrate so that a light leakage phenomenon is generated.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
The following content combines figures and embodiments for detail description of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a pixel structure of an array substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2, the array substrate includes multiple gate lines 21, multiple data lines 22 and multiple pixel electrodes P1, P2, P3 and P4 arranged as a matrix. Wherein, pixel electrodes located at a same column allow lights having a same color to pass through. For example, from right side to left side in FIG. 2, subpixels in a first column of pixel electrodes P1 function as transparent subpixels (W, White) of the array substrate for allowing a white light to pass through; subpixels in a second column of pixel electrodes P2 function as green subpixels (G, Green) of the array substrate for allowing a green light to pass through; subpixels in a third column of pixel electrodes P3 function as red subpixels (R, red) of the array substrate for allowing a red light to pass through; subpixels in a fourth column of pixel electrodes P4 function as blue subpixels (B, blue) of the array substrate for allowing a blue light to pass through. Besides, an arrangement of the subpixels is sequentially repeated along a direction in parallel with the gate line 21.
Optionally, a width sum of adjacent two pixel electrodes along a row direction is equal to a length of each pixel electrode along a column direction. That is, adjacent two pixel electrodes can form a square, and a length of the square is equal to a length of each pixel electrode.
In the present embodiment, between two adjacent row pixel electrodes, a gate line 21 is provided. Pixel electrodes in a same row are connected with a same gate line 21. Each data line 22 passes around a column of pixel electrodes sequentially row by row. A surrounding shape of each data line 22 is a bow shape, and when each data line 22 passes around each two adjacent rows of pixel electrodes, opening directions are opposite and surrounding methods are the same. For example, a first data line 22 shown at a right side of FIG. 2 passes around a (m+1)-th column of pixel electrodes P3 sequentially row by row. When the data line 22 passes around a pixel electrode P3 at a (n+1)-th row, an opening direction is toward a right side. When the data line 22 passes around a pixel electrode P3 at a (n+2)-th row, an opening direction is toward a left side. Wherein, m and n are all positive integrals.
Besides, when a data line passes around one column of pixel electrodes, the data line is connected with two columns of pixel electrodes which are adjacent to the one column passed around by the data line along a column direction. For example, a (m+1)-th column of pixel electrodes P3 is respectively adjacent to an m-th column of pixel electrodes P4 and a (m+2)-th column of pixel electrodes P2. The first data line 22 at right side shown in FIG. 2 which passes around the (m+1)-th column of pixel electrodes P3 is connected with a n-th row and m-th column pixel electrode P4, a (n+1)-th row and (m+2)-th column pixel electrode P2, a (n+2)-th row and m-th column pixel electrode P4, and a (n+3)-th row and (m+2)-th column pixel electrode P2 along a column direction and continuously connected, and so on.
It can be understand that the arrangement way of the bow-shape data line 22 is just an embodiment of the present invention. In a practical application, an arrangement shape of each data line 22 and a surrounding method for each column of pixel electrodes may not be the same. That is, the arrangement shape may be irregular, for example:
With reference to FIG. 3, and FIG. 3 is a pixel structure according to another embodiment of the array substrate of the present invention. From left side to right side, subpixels in a first column of pixel electrodes P5 function as red subpixels of the array substrate for allowing a red light to pass through. Subpixels in a second column of pixel electrodes P6 function as green subpixels of the array substrate for allowing a green light to pass through. Subpixels in a third column of pixel electrodes P7 function as blue subpixels of the array substrate for allowing a blue light to pass through. Subpixels in a fourth column of pixel electrodes P8 function as white subpixels of the array substrate for allowing white light to pass through. Besides, the subpixels are arranged along a direction in parallel with a gate line 21, and are sequentially repeated.
In an embodiment shown in FIG. 3, each data line 22 passes around two adjacent columns of pixel electrodes row by row. When a data line 22 passes around two adjacent columns of pixel electrodes, the data line 22 is sequentially connected with one pixel electrode far away from an opening direction and a pixel electrode located at a next row and adjacent to a pixel electrode which is located at the next row and is far away from an opening direction. The above connection is along a column direction and is connected sequentially. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, from left side to right side, a first data line 22 passes around a first column of pixel electrodes P5 and a second column of pixel electrodes P6 row by row. When the data line 22 passes around a first row of pixel electrodes P5 and P6, an opening direction is toward a right side. When the data line 22 passes around a second row of pixel electrodes P5 and P6, an opening direction is toward a left side. Wherein, a first row and first column pixel electrode P5 is far away from the opening direction toward the right side, and the data line 22 is connected with the first row and first column pixel electrode P5. A second row and second column pixel electrode P6 is far away from the opening direction toward the left side. A pixel electrode P7 adjacent to the pixel electrode P6 is a second row and third column pixel electrode P7, and the data line 22 is connected with the second row and third column pixel electrode P7. A third row and first column pixel electrode P5 is far away from an opening direction toward a right side, and the data line 22 is connected with the third row and first column pixel electrode P5. A fourth row and second column pixel electrode P6 is far away from an opening direction toward a left side. A pixel electrode adjacent to the pixel electrode P6 is a fourth row and third column pixel electrode P7, and the data line 22 is connected with the fourth row and third column pixel electrode P7. The above connection is along a column direction and is connected sequentially.
No matter what kind of arrangement shape is adopted, the embodiment of the present invention must satisfy conditions of: each data line 22 passes around at least one adjacent column of pixel electrodes row by row, and when each data line 22 passes around two adjacent rows of the multiple pixel electrodes, opening directions are opposite such that for a same column of the multiple pixel electrodes, pixel electrodes located at odd rows are connected with a same data line 22, pixel electrodes located at even rows are connected with a same data line 22, and pixel electrodes located at odd rows and even rows are respectively connected with different data lines 22. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, in the fourth column, pixel electrodes P8 of a first row and a third row are connected with a fourth data line 22, and pixel electrodes P8 of a second row and a fourth row are connected with a second data line 22.
In the above embodiments, each pixel electrode is connected with adjacent data line at a column direction, and the above embodiments are specifically realized m*n thin-film-transistors (TFT) T on the array substrate. Wherein, a gate electrode g of each TFT T is connected to an adjacent gate line 21, a source electrode s of each TFT T is connected with an adjacent data line 22 and a drain electrode d of each TFT T is connected with an adjacent pixel electrode.
Accordingly, in the embodiments of the present invention, through improving the arrangement and the connection method of the data line 22 of the array substrate, areas between two adjacent two pixel electrodes in the conventional art do not require to be changed. That is, without affecting the aperture ratio, a trace area between two adjacent rows of pixel electrodes is increased. Correspondingly, areas between two adjacent color resists on the color filter substrate are increased so as to reduce or eliminate the slit diffraction phenomenon generated by forming color resists by exposing through the mask in order to reduce the bias generated at the edge of the color resist. When displaying, a black matrix locate between adjacent two color resists on the color filter substrate can maximally block or block all lights from the pixel electrodes of the array substrate so as to improve or eliminate the light leakage phenomenon.
The resent invention also provides a liquid crystal display device such as a liquid crystal display panel or a liquid crystal display device, which includes an array substrate having above pixel structure.
The above embodiments of the present invention are not used to limit the claims of this invention. Any use of the content in the specification or in the drawings of the present invention which produces equivalent structures or equivalent processes, or directly or indirectly used in other related technical fields is still covered by the claims in the present invention.
