## Background
BACKGROUND
Embodiments of the present invention relate to a thin film transistor liquid crystal display.
Thin film transistor liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCDs), which are of small volume, light weight, low power consumption and free of radiation, have prevailed in the market of flat panel display devices. Recently, with the development of large-sized TFT-LCDs, display panels of larger size with high display quality are required, and also the area of each pixel of such kinds of display panel has become bigger. However, since the area of each pixel is increased, a defective pixel may have a greater impact on the display quality, that is, one bright spot or dark spot may exert a remarkable and adverse influence on the display quality. Therefore, in large-sized TFT-LCDs, it is necessary to reduce occurrence of defective pixel and improve the reliability of each pixel.
Generally, a TFT-LCD comprises an array substrate and a color filter substrate facing with each other and holding a liquid crystal layer therebetween. By applying a common voltage to a transparent electrode on the color filter array and a data voltage to a pixel electrode of each pixel on the array substrate, the orientation of the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer can be changed by the electric field generated between the array substrate and the color filter substrate. Furthermore, the intensity of the electric field can be modified by the data voltage, and thus the twist angle of the liquid crystal molecules can be controlled and the amount of transmitted light can be correspondingly controlled for displaying image.
FIG. 6 is a schematic view showing a conventional array substrate. As shown in FIG. 6, a plurality of data lines 1 and a plurality of gate lines 2, which are perpendicular to and insulating from each other, are formed on the array substrate, and a plurality of pixel units are defined by intersecting the gate lines 2 with the data lines 1. A thin film transistor (TFT) 4 serving as a switch device is formed at each of the intersections between the gate lines 2 and the data lines 1, and the TFT 4 is connected with a pixel electrode 5 provided in each pixel unit. A storage capacitor 6 is formed by overlapping the pixel electrode 5 with the gate line 2. However, in the conventional array substrate, the capacitance of the storage capacitor is decreased when a displacement is generated between an upper layer and a lower layer, and therefore the stability of the storage capacitor 6 is low, which tends to bring about a bright spot or a dark spot on the final panel, and there is no effective method to repair the defective spot at present. If a bright spot is generated, such bright spot generally can be converted into a dark spot by a laser repairing method, but the display quality still degrades. Furthermore, light leakage causing by a black matrix may occur due to the errors generated at the time of attaching the array substrate to the color filter substrate and the like.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing the pixel structure of a TFT-LCD array substrate according to a first embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the TFT-LCD pixel structure in the present embodiment comprises a data line 1, a gate line 2, common electrode lines 3, thin film transistors 4 and a pixel electrode 5. A pixel unit is defined by intersecting of the data line 1 and the gate line 2, and the thin film transistors 4 are formed at the intersection of the data line 1 and the gate line 2. The data line 1 extends across the pixel unit in the middle of the pixel unit, and at least two thin film transistors 4 for controlling the same pixel electrode 5 can be formed on both sides of the data line 1, respectively. The common electrode lines 3 are parallel to the data line 1 and overlap with the pixel electrode 5 to form at least two storage capacitors for one pixel unit. In the present embodiment, in each pixel unit, there exist two thin film transistors 4, and they are provided respectively on both sides of the data line 1. Also, there are formed two storage capacitors, i.e., a first storage capacitor 61 and a second storage capacitor 62, and they are provided on both sides of the pixel unit, respectively. Specifically, the gate line 2 extends at the bottom side of the pixel unit, and the data line 1 extends across the pixel unit in the middle of the pixel unit and intersects with the gate line 2. A pair of source and drain electrodes is formed by the portion branching from the data line 1. One pair of the electrodes is provided on each side of the data line 1, and there are two thin film transistors 4. The pixel electrode 5 is formed in each pixel unit and thus a matrix of the pixel electrode 5 is formed on the array substrate. The pixel electrode 5 in each pixel unit is connected with the two thin film transistors 4 so that it can be controlled by these thin film transistors, and accordingly even when one thin film transistor 4 is defective, the pixel electrode can still be switched on by the other thin film transistor 4. Therefore the failure of the pixel electrode 5 resulting from one defective thin film transistor 4 can be prevented. It should be noted that at least two thin film transistors 4 can be provided in each pixel unit as necessary, so that the remaining thin film transistor that has no defect can function properly as a switching device if defects occur to certain thin film transistor. In addition, the common electrode lines 3 are provided at the edges of the pixel electrode 5 on both sides of the data line 1, and thus the first storage capacitor 61 is formed by overlapping the pixel electrode 5 with the common electrode line 3 on one side of the data line 1, and the second storage capacitor 62 is formed by overlapping the pixel electrode 5 with the common electrode line 3 on the other side of the data line 1. Therefore, a more stable voltage can be applied to the thin film transistor 4 through the first storage capacitor 61 and the second storage capacitor 62, and thus the reliability of the pixel unit can be improved.
In the present embodiment, two thin film transistors are provided in each pixel unit and these two thin film transistors are connected with a same pixel electrode. Thus both of the thin film transistors can charge the pixel electrode and the charge speed can be greatly increased and a complete charge can be ensured, and therefore the TFT-LCD pixel structure in the present embodiment has the advantage of a higher response speed. Furthermore, if defect occurs to one thin film transistor, the operation of the pixel electrode can still be maintained by the other thin film transistor, and thus the TFT-LCD pixel structure in the present embodiment further has the advantage of a higher reliability. In addition, two storage capacitors are provided in each pixel unit, and thus failures causing by the displacement between an upper layer and a lower layer can be avoided, and the production yield of manufacturing the TFT-LCD is increased. In the embodiment, there can be formed no common electrode line 3 or one common electrode line 3 only for one pixel unit.
FIG. 2 is a schematic view showing the pixel structure of a TFT-LCD array substrate according to a second embodiment of the invention, FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing another pixel structure of a TFT-LCD array substrate according to the second embodiment of the invention, and FIG. 4 is a schematic view showing further another pixel structure of a TFT-LCD array substrate according to the second embodiment of the invention.
As shown in FIG. 2 to FIG. 4, the TFT-LCD pixel structure in the present embodiment comprises a data line 1, a gate line 2, common electrode lines 3, thin film transistors 4 and a pixel electrode 5. A pixel unit is defined by intersecting of the data line 1 with the gate line 2, and the thin film transistors 4 are formed at the intersection of the data line 1 and the gate line 2. The data line 1 extends across each pixel unit in the middle of the pixel unit. At least two thin film transistors 4 for controlling a same pixel electrode 5 are formed on both sides of the data line 1, respectively. The common electrode lines 3 are parallel to the data line 1 and overlap with the pixel electrode 5 to form at least two storage capacitors. In the present embodiment, there exist two thin film transistors 4 in each pixel unit, and they are provided on both sides of the data line 1, respectively. Specifically, the gate line 2 is extended at the bottom side of each pixel unit on the substrate, and the data line 1 extends across the pixel unit in the middle of the pixel unit and intersects with the gate line 2. A pair of source and drain electrodes is formed by the portion branching from the data line 1, and two electrode pairs thus formed are respectively provided on both sides of the data line 1 to form two thin film transistors 4. The pixel electrode 5 is formed in each pixel unit and thus a matrix of the pixel electrode 5 is formed on the array substrate. The pixel electrode 5 in each pixel unit is connected with two thin film transistors 4 so that it can be controlled by these two thin film transistors, and thus even when defect occurs to one thin film transistor 4, the pixel electrode can still be switched on by the other thin film transistor 4. Therefore, the failure of the pixel electrode 5 resulting from the defective thin film transistor 4 can be prevented. It should be noted that at least two thin film transistors 4 can be provided in each pixel unit as necessary so that the remaining thin film transistor with no defects can function properly as a switching device if defect occur to certain thin film transistor. In addition, the common electrode lines 3 are provided at the edges of the pixel electrode 5 on both sides of the data line 1, and thus a first storage capacitor 61 is formed by overlapping the pixel electrode 5 with the common electrode line 3 on one side of the data line 1, and a second storage capacitor 62 is formed by overlapping the pixel electrode 5 with the common electrode line 3 on the other side of the data line 1. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2, a third storage capacitor 63 is formed by overlapping the pixel electrode 5 with the gate line 2 on the upper side of the pixel electrode 5.
Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 3, a fourth storage capacitor 64 is formed by overlapping the pixel electrode 5 with the gate line 2 on the lower side of the pixel electrode 5. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 4, a third storage capacitor 63 is formed by overlapping the pixel electrode 5 with the gate line 2 on the upper side of the pixel electrode 5, and a fourth storage capacitor 64 is simultaneously formed by overlapping the pixel electrode 5 with the gate line 2 on the lower side of the pixel electrode 5. Therefore, a more stable voltage can be applied to the thin film transistors 4 through the first storage capacitor 61, the second storage capacitor 62, the third storage capacitor 63 and/or the fourth storage capacitor 64, and thus the reliability of the pixel can be improved.
The primary structure of the second embodiment is similar to that of the first embodiment except that three or four storage capacitors are formed in each pixel unit. Therefore, in addition to the effects and advantages that can be obtained in the first embodiment, a more stable voltage can be applied to the thin film transistors and the production yield of manufacturing the TFT-LCD can be further increased.

Since the gate lines and the common electrode lines of the above-described TFT-LCD array substrate are formed by metal materials, a black matrix is no longer needed in the corresponding portion of the color filter substrate.
