No. 17/189,965 filed on Mar. 2, 2021, which claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119 to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2020-0046967 filed in the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Apr. 17, 2020, the disclosures of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entireties. 
     1. Technical Field 
     An exemplary embodiment of the present invention relates to an input sensing device and a display device including the same. 
     2. Description of the Related Art 
     Biometric authentication is form of security that measures and matches biometric features of a user to verify that a person trying to access a particular device is authorized to do so. For example, in a display device such as a smart phone or a tablet personal computer (PC), a biometric information authentication method using a user&#39;s fingerprint is widely used. To provide a fingerprint sensing function, a fingerprint sensor may be embedded in the display device or attached to and/or under the display device. Such a fingerprint sensor integrated display device is called a fingerprint on display (FoD). 
     The FoD may include, for example, a light-sensing sensor. The FoD with the light-sensing sensor may use a light emitting element provided in a pixel as a light source and include an optical sensor array. The light emitting element may be used to illuminate the user&#39;s finger. The optical sensor array may be implemented with, for example, a CMOS image sensor (CIS), and may capture an image of the illuminated finger. 
     Detection capability of the input sensing device may deteriorate due to noise coming from the outside the input sensing device (e.g., fingerprint sensor). In other words, the sensitivity of the fingerprint sensor may be reduced by the noise.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS 
     Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to accompanying drawings. It is to be understood, however, that the described embodiments may be modified in many different ways, and thus, should not limited to the embodiments described herein. 
     Throughout the specification, like reference numerals can refer to like parts. 
     In addition, the size and thickness of elements in the accompanying drawings may be exaggerated for clarity of illustration. 
       FIG.  1 A  is a block diagram showing a display device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. FIG,  1 B is a block diagram showing another exemplary embodiment of the display device of  FIG.  1 A . In  FIGS.  1 A and  1 B , a display device is schematically shown. 
     Referring to  FIGS.  1 A and  1 B , the display device  1000  may include a display panel  100  and a driver  200 . For better understanding and ease of description, the display panel  100  and the driver  200  are separately shown in  FIGS.  1 A and  1 B , but the present Invention is not limited thereto. For example, all or a portion of the driver  200  may be integrally implemented on the display panel  100 . 
     All or at least a portion of the display panel  100  may have flexibility. 
     The display panel  100  includes a display area AA and a non-display area NA. The non-display area NA may surround all or a portion of the display area AA. A pixel PXL (or a plurality of pixels) may be provided in the display area AA, and the display area AA may be referred to as an active area. The pixel PXL may include at least one light emitting element. The display device  1000  may drive the pixel PXL in response to image data input from the outside, and may display an image in the display area AA. 
     In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the display area AA may include an input sensing area FSA. At least some of the pixels PXL provided in the display area AA may be included in the input sensing area FSA. 
     In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, as shown in  FIG.  1 A , at least a portion of the display area AA may be set as the input sensing area FSA. 
       FIG.  1 A  shows an exemplary embodiment in which only one input sensing area FSA is set in the display area AA, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, a plurality of input sensing areas FSA arranged regularly or irregularly may be set in the display area AA. Furthermore, the input sensing area FSA can be located anywhere in the display area AA. 
     For example,  FIG.  1 A  shows an exemplary embodiment in which the input sensing area FSA is set in at least a portion of the display area AA, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, only at least a portion of the input sensing area FSA may overlap at least a portion of the display area AA. 
     In another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, as shown in  FIG.  1 B , the entire display area AA may be set as the input sensing area FSA. In this case, when performing an input sensing operation, the input sensing operation may be performed only in a portion of the display area AA that a user touches. Hereinafter, the input of a user may refer to a pattern or biometric information formed by a ridge of the user&#39;s skin, and may include for example, the user&#39;s fingerprint or palm pattern. 
     The non-display area NA may be disposed around the display area AA, and may be referred to as a non-active area. For example, the non-display area NA may include a line area, a pad area, and various dummy areas. 
     In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the display device  1000  may further include a sensor pixel SPXL (or a plurality of sensor pixels) in the input sensing area FSA. The sensor pixel SPXL may be composed of a sensor for sensing light. In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, when light emitted from a light source (or pixel PXL) provided in the display device  1000  is reflected by the user&#39;s body (e.g., finger, palm, etc.), the sensor pixel SPXL may sense the reflected light and output a corresponding electrical signal (e.g. a voltage signal). The electrical signal may be transferred to the driver  200  (e.g., an input detector  220 ) and may be used for input sensing. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to an exemplary embodiment in which the sensor pixel SPXL is used for input sensing (e.g., fingerprint sensing). It is to be understood, however, that the sensor pixel SPXL may be used to perform various other functions such as functions of a touch sensor, a scanner, and the like. 
     VVhen the sensor pixel SPXL is provided in the input sensing area FSA (or disposed on the input sensing area FSA), the sensor pixel SPXL may overlap the pixel PXL or be disposed around the pixel PXL. For example, some or all of the sensor pixels SPXL may overlap the pixel PXL, or the sensor pixel SPXL may be disposed between adjacent pixels PXL. The sensor pixel SPXL and the pixel PXL may have the same or different size. The relative size and arrangement between the sensor pixel SPLX and the pixel PXL is not particularly limited. 
     When the sensor pixel SPXL is disposed adjacent to the pixel PXL or overlaps at least a portion of the pixel PXL, the sensor pixel SPXL may use a light emitting element provided in the pixel PXL as a light source. In this case, the sensor pixel SPXL may be an input sensing sensor of a light sensing type together with a light emitting element provided in the pixel PXL. When an input sensing sensor embedded display device (e.g., a fingerprint sensor embedded display device) is configured using the pixel PXL as a light source without a separate external light source, a thickness of the input sensing sensor of the light sensing type and the display device including the same, may be reduced, and manufacturing cost thereof may be reduced. 
     In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the sensor pixel SPXL may be disposed on a different surface (e.g., a back surface) facing a surface (e.g., a front surface) on which an image is displayed among both sides of the display panel  100 . However, the present invention is not limited to thereto. 
     The driver  200  can drive the display panel  100 . For example, the driver  200  may output a data signal DS corresponding to image data to the display panel  100 . In addition, the driver  200  may output a driving signal for the sensor pixel SPXL, and may receive an electrical signal (e.g., a sensing signal SS) from the sensor pixel SPXL. The driver  200  can detect the user&#39;s input (e.g., fingerprint, palm print, etc.) using an electrical signal. 
     In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the driver  200  may include a panel driver  210  and an input detector  220 . For better understanding and ease of description, the panel driver  210  and the input detector  220  are separately shown in  FIGS.  1 A and  1 B , but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, at least a portion of the input detector  220  may be integrated with the panel driver  210  or may operate in conjunction ith the panel driver  210 . 
     The panel driver  210  may supply a data signal DS corresponding to the image data to the pixel PXL while scanning the pixel PXL of the display area AA sequentially. In this case, the display panel  100  can display an image corresponding to the image data. 
     In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the panel driver  210  may supply a driving signal for fingerprint sensing to the pixel PXL. Here, the driving signal may be provided to the pixel PXL so that the pixel PXL emits light and operates as a light source for the sensor pixel SPXL. In the present embodiment, the driving signal for fingerprint sensing may be provided to a pixel PXL (e.g., a pixel PXL located in the input sensing area FSA) located in a specific area in the display panel  100 . 
     In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the image data corresponding to the input sensing area FSA may be provided or controlled by the input detector  220 . For example, when performing the input sensing operation, the input detector  220  may provide an image data corresponding to an image to be displayed in the input sensing area FSA. In the alternative, when performing the input sensing operation, the input detector  220  may provide a control signal IPD to the panel driver  210 . 
     In addition, a driving signal for fingerprint sensing may be provided to the sensor pixel SPXL by the input detector  220 . 
     The input detector  220  may transfer a driving signal (e.g., a driving voltage) for driving the sensor pixel SPXL to the sensor pixel SPXL, and may detect the users input based on an electrical signal received from the sensor pixel SPXL. For example, the input detector  220  may detect the user&#39;s fingerprint or palm print based on the sensing signal SS supplied from the sensor pixel SPXL (or a sensor array including the sensor pixel SPXL). 
     The input detector  220  and sensor pixel SPXL (or sensor array) may constitute an input sensing device. 
       FIG.  2 A  is a cross-section view of the display device of  FIG.  1 A . A cross-section in the input sensing area FSA of the display device  1000  of  FIGS.  1 A and  1 B  is shown in  FIG.  2 A . 
     Referring to  FIGS.  1 A to  2 A , the display device  1000  may include the display panel  100  and a sensor array PS (or an input sensing panel) disposed on one surface of the display panel  100  in the input sensing area FSA. In addition, the display device  1000  may include a substrate SUB, and a circuit element layer BPL, a light emitting element layer LDL, a first protective layer PTL 1 , a first adhesive layer ADL 1 , and a window WIN disposed sequentially on one surface (e.g., an upper surface) of the substrate SUB, In addition, the display device  1000  may include a second adhesive layer ADL 2  and a second protective layer PTL 2  sequentially disposed on the other surface (e.g., a lower surface) of the substrate SUB. In other words, the circuit element layer BPL, the light emitting element layer LDL, the first protective layer PTL 1 , the first adhesive layer ADL 1 , and the window WIN may be disposed on a first surface of the substrate SUB, and the second adhesive layer ADL 2  and the second protective layer PTL 2  may be disposed on a second surface of the substrate SUB. The first and second surfaces of the substrate SUB may face each other. 
     The substrate SUB may be a base substrate of the display panel  100 , and may be a substantially transparent light-transmitting substrate. The substrate SUB may be a rigid substrate including glass or tempered glass, or a flexible substrate including a plastic material. However, the material of the substrate SUB is not limited to thereto, and the substrate SUB may be made of various materials. 
     The circuit element layer BPL may be disposed on one surface of the substrate SUB, and may include at least one conductive layer. For example, the circuit element layer BPL may include a plurality of circuit elements constituting a pixel circuit of the pixel PXL, and lines for supplying various power and signals for driving the pixel PXL. In this case, the circuit element layer BPL may include a plurality of conductive layers that constitute various circuit elements such as at least one transistor, a capacitor, and the like and lines connected thereto. In addition, the circuit element layer BPL may include at least one insulation layer provided between a plurality of conductive layers. 
     The light emitting element layer LDL may be disposed on one surface of the circuit element layer BPL. The light emitting element layer LDL may include a light emitting element LD (or a plurality of light emitting elements) connected to circuit elements and/or lines of the circuit element layer BPL through a contact hole or the like. A plurality of the light emitting elements LD may be spaced apart from each other on the surface of the circuit element layer BPL. In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, at least one light emitting element LD may be provided in the pixel PXL (or pixel area PXA). For example, the light emitting element LD may be composed of an organic light emitting element, or an inorganic light emitting element such as a micro light emitting diode (LED) or a quantum dot light emitting diode (LED). In addition, the light emitting element LD may be a light emitting element made of an organic material and an inorganic material in combination. 
     The pixel PXL may include circuit elements disposed in the circuit element layer BPL and at least one light emitting element LD disposed in the light emitting element layer LDL on the circuit element layer BPL. 
     The first protective layer PTL 1  may be disposed on the light emitting element layer LDL to cover the display area AA. The first protective layer PTL 1  may include a sealing member such as a thin film encapsulation (TFE) or an encapsulation substrate, and may further include a protective film in addition to the sealing member. 
     The first adhesive layer ADL 1  may be disposed between the first protective layer PTL 1  and the window WIN to bond the first protective layer PTL 1  and the window WIN, The first adhesive layer ADL 1  may include a transparent adhesive such as an optically clear adhesive (OCA) or an optically clear resin (OCR), and may further include various adhesive materials. 
     The window WIN may be a protective member disposed on a top of a module of the display device  1000  including the display panel  100 , and may be a substantially transparent light-transmitting substrate. The window WIN may have a multi-layer structure made up of a glass substrate, a plastic film, and/or a plastic substrate, The window WIN may include rigid or flexible materials, and the constituent material of the window WIN is not particularly limited thereto. 
     The display device  1000  may further include a polarizer, an anti-reflection layer, and/or a touch sensor layer. For example, the display device  1000  may further include a polarizer and/or a touch sensor layer disposed between the first protective layer PTL 1  and the window WIN. 
     The second protective layer PTL 2  may be disposed on the other surface of the substrate SUB. The second protective layer PTL 2  may be bonded to the substrate SUB by the second adhesive layer ADL 2 . 
     The second adhesive layer ADL 2  can firmly bond (or attach) the substrate SUB and the second protective layer PTL 2 . The second adhesive layer ADL 2  may include a transparent adhesive such as an optically clear adhesive (OCA), The second adhesive layer ADL 2  may include a pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) in which an adhesive material acts when pressure is applied to an adhesive surface thereof. 
     The second protective layer PTL 2  may block an inflow of oxygen and/or moisture from the outside, and may be provided in the form of a single layer or a multiple of layers. The second protective layer PTL 2  may be formed of a film type to further secure flexibility of the display panel  100 . The second protective layer PTL 2  may be bonded with the sensor array PS through another adhesive layer, including a transparent adhesive such as the OCA. 
     A selective light blocking film may be further provided under the second protective layer PTL 2 . The selective light blocking film may block light (e.g., infrared light) of a specific frequency band among external light incident on the display device  1000  to prevent the light from being incident on the sensor pixel SPXL of the sensor array PS. The selective light blocking film may be provided under the second protective layer PTL 2 , but the present invention is not limited thereto. 
     The sensor array PS may be attached to the other surface (e.g., the back) of the display panel  100  through an adhesive or the like to overlap at least one area of the display panel  100 . For example, the sensor array PS may overlap the display panel  100  in the input sensing area FSA. The sensor array PS may include the sensor pixels SPXL (or a plurality of sensor pixels) distributed with a predetermined resolution and/or interval. For example, a plurality of the sensor pixels SPXL may be spaced apart from each other in the sensor array PS. 
     In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an optical system that collects light directed to the sensor array PS and provides an optical path may be provided on the sensor array PS. A width of a light-transmitting part guiding light in the optical system may be determined in consideration of sensing precision and light conversion efficiency. A condensing rate of light incident to the sensor array PS by the optical system can be improved. The optical system may be formed of an optical fiber, silicon, or the like. 
     The sensor pixel SPXL may have a number, size and arrangement so that a fingerprint image can be obtained from an electrical signal output by the sensor pixel SPXL. The sensor pixel SPXL and another sensor pixel SPXL can be densely set so that light reflected from a sensing object (e.g., a fingerprint, etc.) can be incident on the adjacent sensor pixels SPXL. 
     The sensor pixel SPXL can sense external light to output an electrical signal, for example, a voltage signal corresponding thereto. The reflected light incident on the sensor pixel SPXL may have a light characteristic (e.g., a frequency, wavelength, size, etc.) due to a valley and a ridge formed in the users body (e.g., finger). Therefore, the sensor pixel SPXL can output a sensing signal SS corresponding to the light characteristic of the reflected light. 
     The sensing signal SS output from the sensor pixel SPXL may be converted into image data by the input detector  220 , and may be used for user identification (e.g., fingerprint authentication). 
       FIG.  2 B  is a cross-section view of the display device of  FIG.  1 A . 
     Referring to  FIGS.  1 A,  2 A and  2 B , the display device  1000  may further include a light blocking layer PHL including a pinhole PIH. The light blocking layer PHL may be disposed inside the display panel  100 , or between the display panel  100  and the sensor pixel SPXL, and may block some of the light incident on the sensor pixel SPXL. For example, some of the light incident on the light blocking layer PHL may be blocked, while other light incident on the light blocking layer PHL may pass through a pinhole PIH to reach the sensor pixel SPXL under the light blocking layer PHL. For example, as shown in  FIG.  2 B , some of the light incident on the light blocking layer PHL may pass through the pinhole PH to reach a plurality of sensor pixels SPXL. Other light incident on the light blocking layer PHL may be reflected back towards the window WIN. 
     The pinhole PIH may refer to an optical hole, and may be a type of light-transmitting hole. For example, the pinhole PH may be a light-transmitting hole having the smallest size (or area) among light-transmitting holes formed by overlapping layers of the display device  1000  on each other along a path through which the reflected light passes through the display panel  100  in a diagonal or vertical direction and enters the sensor pixel SPXL. 
     The pinhole PIH may have a predetermined width, for example, a width of a range of 5 μm to 20 μm. Accordingly, as a distance from the light blocking layer PHL increases (e.g., as it goes upward and downward from the light blocking layer PHL), a width of an optical opening area in each layer of the display device  1000  may gradually increase. 
     The width (or diameter) of the pinhole PIH may be set to about 10 times or more of a wavelength of the reflected light, for example, about 4 μm or 5 μm or more to prevent diffraction of light. In addition, the width of the pinhole PH may be set to a size sufficient to prevent an image blur and to more clearly sense a shape of the fingerprint. For example, the width of the pinhole PIH may be set to about 15 μm or less. However, the present invention is not limited to thereto, and the width of the pinhole PIH may change depending on a wavelength band of the reflected light, a thickness of each layer of the module, or the like. 
     Only a reflected light passing through the pinhole PIH can reach the sensor pixel SPXL of the sensor array PS. Due to the very narrow pinhole PIH, a phase of light reflected from the fingerprint and a phase of an image formed on the sensor array PS may have a difference of 180 degree. 
     The sensor pixel SPXL may output a sensing signal SS corresponding to the reflected light passing through the pinhole PIH, for example, a voltage signal. 
     However, this is an example, and a configuration, a disposition, and a driving method of the sensor array PS for detecting the reflected light from the fingerprint are not limited to the sensor array PS shown in  FIGS.  2 A or  2 B . 
       FIG.  3    is a block diagram showing an exemplary embodiment of an input sensing device included in the display device of  FIG.  1 A . The input sensing device ISD may include a sensor array PS and an input detector  220 . 
     Referring to FIGS,  1 A and  3 , the sensor array PS (or input sensing panel) may include a sensor pixel SPXL. In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the sensor pixel SPXL may be arranged in a two-dimensional array, but is not limited thereto. The sensor pixel SPXL may include a photoelectric element that photoelectrically converts incident light into a charge depending on an amount of the light. 
     The input detector  220  may include a horizontal driver  221  (e.g., a first driver, or a scan driving circuit), a vertical driver  222  (e.g., a second driver, or a lead-out circuit), and a controller  223 . 
     The horizontal driver  221  may be connected to the sensor pixel SPXL through driving lines H 1  to Hn (here, n is an integer of two or more). The horizontal driver  221  may be composed of a shift register or an address decoder, and may sequentially apply a driving signal (or driving signals) to the driving lines H 1  to Hn. Here, the driving signal may be a signal for selectively driving the sensor pixel SPXL. For example, the horizontal driver  221  may apply a driving signal in units of sensor pixel rows. For example, the driving signal may be provided to the sensor pixel row connected to the first driving line H 1 . 
     The sensor pixel SPXL selected and driven by the horizontal driver  221  may sense light using a photoelectric element therein, and may output an electrical signal (e.g., a sensing signal SS) corresponding to sensed light, for example, a voltage signal. The electrical signal may be an analog signal. In other words, the sensing signal SS may be an analog signal. 
     The vertical driver  222  may be connected to output lines V 1  to Vm (here, m is an integer of two or more), and may be connected to the sensor pixel SPXL through the output lines V 1  to Vm. The vertical driver  222  may process signals output from the sensor pixel SPXL. 
     For example, the vertical driver  222  may perform a correlated double sampling (CDS) process for removing noise from an electrical signal provided from the sensor pixel SPXL. In addition, the vertical driver  222  may convert an electrical signal of an analog type into a signal of a digital type. In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an analog-digital converter may be provided for each sensor pixel column, and may process electrical signals (or analog signals) provided from the sensor pixel column in parallel. 
     The controller  223  may control the horizontal driver  221  and the vertical driver  222 . 
     For example, the controller  223  may provide a first driving voltage (e.g., a gate-off voltage), a second driving voltage (e.g., a gate-on voltage), a common voltage, a clock signal, and a control signal (e.g., a start pulse) to the horizontal driver  221 . In this case, the horizontal driver  221  may generate a driving signal to selectively drive the sensor pixel SPXL based on signals provided from the controller  223 . 
     For example, the controller  223  may provide the clock signal and the control signal to the vertical driver  222 . In this case, the vertical driver  222  may periodically sample the sensing signal SS provided from the sensor pixel SPXL based on the clock signal and the control signal, and may convert the sampled signal into a signal of a digital type. 
     In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the controller  223  may generate image data corresponding to the sensing signal SS received from the vertical driver  222 , and may process the generated image data In addition, the controller  223  may detect an input (e.g., a fingerprint, palm print, etc.) from the processed image data, and may authenticate the detected input or transfer the processed image data to the outside. 
     However, this is merely an example, and the generation of image data and input detection may be not performed by the controller  223 . For example, image data generation and input detection may be performed by an external host processor or the like. 
     The horizontal driver  221 , the vertical driver  222 , and the controller  223  are shown to be independently formed in  FIG.  3   , but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the vertical driver  222  and the controller  223  may be implemented as one integrated circuit, and the horizontal driver  221  may be formed on the sensor array PS through the same process as the sensor pixel SPXL. 
       FIG.  4    is a circuit diagram showing an exemplary embodiment of the input sensing device ISD of  FIG.  3   . In  FIG.  4   , the input sensing device ISD is briefly shown focused on a sensor pixel SPXL included in i−1-th to i+1-th sensor pixel rows (here i is a positive integer less than n) and j−1-th to j+1-th sensor pixel columns (here j is a positive integer less than m), and the vertical driver  222  (or integral circuits) connected thereto.  FIG.  5    is a drawing showing an exemplary embodiment of a sensor pixel SPXL included in the input sensing device ISD of  FIG.  4   .  FIG.  5    shows the sensor pixel SPXL included in the i-th sensor pixel row and the j-th sensor pixel column. 
     Referring to  FIGS.  3  to  5   , the input sensing device ISD (or sensor array PS) may include driving lines Hi−1, Hi, and Hi+1, output lines Vj−1, Vj, and Vj+1 (or second signal lines), signal lines RXj−1, RXj, and RXj+1 (or first signal lines), a power line PL 1 , and sensor pixels SPXL connected thereto. 
     The driving lines Hi−1, Hi, and Hi+1 may extend in a second direction DR 2 , and may be arranged in a first direction DR 1  crossing the second direction DR 2 . 
     The output lines Vj−1, Vj, and Vj+1 may extend in the first direction DR 1 , and may be arranged in the second direction DR 2 . 
     The signal lines RXj−1, RXj, and RX+1 may extend in the first direction DR 1 , and may be arranged in the second direction DR 2 . The signal lines RXj−1, RXj, and RX+1 may extend parallel to the output lines Vj−1, Vj, and Vj+1, and the signal lines RXj−1, RXj, and RXj+1 and the output lines Vj−1, Vj, and Vj+1 may be alternately arranged in the second direction DR 2 . 
     In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, each of the signal lines RXj″1, RXj, and RX+1 may include a plurality of sub-lines. As shown in  FIG.  5   , the j-th signal line RXj may include a first sub-line RX_S 1  and a second sub-line RX S 2 . The first sub-line RX_S 1  and the second sub-line RX_S 2  may extend in the first direction DR 1  and may be arranged in the first direction DR 1 . The first sub-line RX_S 1  may be separated from the second sub-line RX_S 2 . For example, a pair of transistors may be disposed between the first sub-line RX_S 1  and the second sub-line RX_S 2 . 
     The power line PL 1  may be arranged in a matrix form, and a common voltage VCO (e.g., a ground voltage) may be applied to the power line PL 1   
     The sensor pixels SPXL may be connected to the driving lines Hi−1, Hi, and Hi+1, the output lines Vj−1, Vj, and Vj+1 second signal lines), the signal lines RXj−1, RXj, and RXj+1 (or first signal lines), and the power line PL 1 . 
     Since the sensor pixels SPXL are substantially equivalent to each other, the sensor pixel SPXL included in the i-th sensor pixel row and j-th sensor pixel column will be described as representative of the sensor pixels SPXL. 
     Referring to  FIG.  5   , the sensor pixel SPXL may include an optical sensor PSC, a first transistor T 1 , and a second transistor T 2 . 
     The optical sensor PSC may be connected to the power line PL 1 , the i-th driving line Hi, and a first node N 1 , and may transfer a photoelectrically converted charge (or sensing signal SS, see  FIG.  1 A ) to the first node N 1  in response to a driving signal provided through the i-th driving line Hi. 
     In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the optical sensor PSC may include a photodiode PD and a transmission transistor T_TX. 
     The photodiode PD may be electrically connected between the power line PL 1  and the first node N 1 , and may generate a charge (or a current) based on the incident light. In other words, the photodiode PD can perform a function of photoelectric conversion. For example, an anode of the photodiode PD may be connected to the power line PL 1 , and a cathode of the photodiode PD may be electrically connected to the first node N 1 . In other words, a first terminal of the photodiode PD may be connected to the power line PL 1 , and a second terminal of the photodiode PD may be electrically connected to the first node N 1 . 
     The transmission transistor T_TX may include a first electrode (or first transistor electrode) connected to the cathode of the photodiode PD, a second electrode (or second transistor electrode) electrically connected to the first node N 1 , and a gate electrode connected to the i-th driving line Hi. 
     In other words, the transmission transistor T_TX may be electrically connected between the cathode of the photodiode PD and the first node N 1 . In this case, the transmission transistor T_TX may be turned on in response to a driving signal (e.g., a driving signal at a gate-on voltage level that turns on a transistor) provided through the i-th driving line Hi, and may transfer the photoelectrically converted charge from the photodiode PD to the first node N 1 . 
     In  FIG.  5   , the optical sensor PSC is shown to include the photodiode PD and the transmission transistor T_TX, but the optical sensor PSC is not limited thereto. For example, the optical sensor PSC may further include a transistor for initializing the photodiode PD, a capacitor for temporarily storing a charge of the photodiode PD, and a transistor for transferring a predetermined signal (e.g., a current), instead of the charge of the photodiode PD, to the first node N 1  in response to the charge of the photodiode PD. 
     The first transistor T 1  may include a first electrode connected to the first sub-line RX_S 1 , a second electrode connected to the first node N 1 , and a gate electrode connected to the i-th driving line Hi. In other words, the first transistor T 1  may be connected between the first sub-line RX_S 1  and the first node N 1 . In this case, the first transistor T 1  ay be turned on in response to a driving signal (e.g., a driving signal at a gate-on voltage level) provided through the i-th driving line Hi, and may electrically connect the first node N 1  and the first sub-line RX_S 1 . 
     The second transistor T 2  may include a first electrode connected to the first node N 1 , a second electrode connected to the second sub-line RX_S 2 , and a gate electrode connected to the i-th driving line Hi. In other words, the second transistor T 2  may be connected between the second sub-line RX_S 2  and the first node N 1 . In this case, the second transistor T 2  may be turned on in response to a driving signal (e.g., a driving signal at the gate-on voltage level) provided through the i-th driving line Hi, and may electrically connect the first node N 1  and the second sub-line RX_S 2 . When the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  are turned on, the first and second sub-lines RX_S 1  and RX_S 2  may be electrically connected to each other. 
     The j-th output line Vj may be connected to each of the first sub-line RX_S 1  and the second sub-line RX_S 2 . In this case, the first electrode of the first transistor T 1  may be electrically connected to the j-th output line Vj through the first sub-line RX_S 1 , and the second electrode of the second transistor T 2  may be electrically connected to the j-th output line Vj through the second sub-line RX_S 2 . Here, the first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  may form a current path between the first node N 1  and the j-th output line Vj in response to a driving signal provided through the i-th driving line Hi. 
     VVhen a driving signal is not applied to the i-th driving line Hi (or when a driving signal at a gate-off voltage level that turns off a transistor is applied to the i-th driving line Hi), the first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  may maintain a turn-off state, and may electrically separate the optical sensor PSC from the j-th signal line RXj (e.g., first sub-line RX_S 1  and second sub-line RX_S 2 ). In addition, since the driving signal is not applied to the i-th driving line Hi, the first sub-line RX_S 1  and the second sub-line RX_S 2  may be electrically separated from each other, and the possibility that noise flows through the j-th signal line RXj and a size of the noise may be reduced, For example, since the first sub-line RX_S 1  and the second sub-line RX_S 2  are electrically separated, the length of the wiring for the j-th signal line RXj is decreased, thereby reducing the amount of noise. 
     In addition, the first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  may block a leakage current flowing through the transmission transistor T_TX, and may block noise caused by a leakage current of the sensor pixel SPXL that is not selected. 
     In other words, the first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  can constitute a noise prevention circuit for each sensor pixel SPXL. 
     In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, a load (or a resistance value) of the j-th output line Vj may be smaller than a load of the j-th signal line RXj. For example, a first line width W 1  of the j-th output line Vj may be greater than a second line width W 2  of the j-th signal line RXj (e.g., second sub-line RX_S 2 ), The noise may be blocked through the j-th signal line RXj with a relatively large load, and a charge (e.g., a sensing signal with reduced noise) may be directly provided to the vertical driver  222  through the j-th output line Vj with a relatively small load. In an alternative embodiment, the first line width W 1  and the second line width W 2  may be the same as each other or the second line width W 2  may be greater than the first line width W 1 . 
     In  FIG.  5   , the transmission and first and second transistors T_TX, T 1 , and T 2  are shown to P-type transistors, but at least some of the transmission and first and second transistors T_TX, T 1 , and T 2  may be N-type transistors, so that a circuit structure of the sensor pixel SPXL may be variously modified. 
     Referring back to  FIG.  4   , the vertical driver  222  may include integral circuits. 
     The integral circuits may be connected to the output lines Vj−1, Vj, and Vj+1 through input terminals OTj−1, OTj, and OTj+1, respectively, and may generate output signals VOUTj−1, VOUTj, and VOUTj+1, respectively. Since the integral circuits are substantially equivalent to each other, an integral circuit connected to the j-th output line Vj will be described as representative of the integral circuits. 
     The integral circuit (or vertical driver  222 ) may include an amplifier AMP, a capacitor CF, and a switch SW. A first input terminal (e.g., an input terminal of a positive polarity (+)) of the amplifier AMP may be connected to the j-th output line Vj through the j-th input terminal OTj, and a reference voltage VREF may be applied to a second input terminal (e.g., an input terminal of a negative polarity (−)) of the amplifier AMP. 
     The capacitor CF may be connected between the first input terminal and output terminal of the amplifier AMP, and the switch SW may be connected in parallel to the capacitor CF. 
     When the switch SW is turned off, the capacitor CF may integrate the charge (e.g., a sensing signal) provided to the first input terminal of the amplifier AMP, and the amplifier AMP may output a sensing signal integrated through the output terminal, in other words, the j-th output signal VOUTj. 
     When the switch SW is turned on, the capacitor CF may be initialized. 
     As described with reference to  FIGS.  4  and  5   , the sensor pixel SPXL includes the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  connected between sub-lines RX_S 1  and RX_S 2  of the j-th signal line RXj, and may reduce or block both noise flowing through the j-th signal line RXj and noise (or leakage current) flowing from the optical sensor PSC by using the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2 . Therefore, sensing sensitivity of the input sensing device ISD can be increased. 
     According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, as shown in  FIGS.  4  and  5   , the input sensing device ISD includes a power line PL 1 ; a driving line Hi; a first signal line RXj including sub-lines RX_S 1  and RX_S 2 ; a second signal line Vj connected to the sub-lines RX_S 1  and RX_S 2 ; and sensor pixels SPXL connected to the power line PL 1 , the driving line Hi, and the second signal line Vj, wherein at least one sensor pixel SPXL includes: an optical sensor PSC that transfers a photoelectrically converted charge from the power line PL 1  to a first node N 1  in response to a driving signal provided through an i-th driving line Hi of the driving lines Hi−1, Hi, and Hi+1; a first transistor T 1  connected between the first node N 1  and a first sub-line RX_S 1  among the sub-lines, wherein the first transistor T 1  includes a gate electrode connected to the i-th driving line Hi; and a second transistor T 2  connected between the first node N 1  and a second sub-line RX_S 2  among the sub-lines, wherein the second transistor T 2  includes a gate electrode connected to the i-th driving line Hi. 
       FIG.  6    is a waveform diagram describing an operation of the sensor pixel of  FIG.  5   , according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. 
     Referring to  FIGS.  4  to  6   , the i-th driving signal SCANi may be provided to the i-th driving line Hi, and the output signal Vout may correspond to the j-th output line Vj. In other words, the output signal Vout may be a j-th output signal VOUTj output through an integral circuit connected to the j-th output line Vj. 
     At a first time point t 1 , the i-th driving signal SCANi may be changed from a logic high level (or a gate-off voltage level) to a logic low level (or a gate-on voltage level). At a second time point t 2 , the i-th driving signal SCANi may be changed from the logic low level to the logic high level. 
     In this case, the transmission transistor T_TX, the first transistor T 1 , and the second transistor T 2  of the sensor pixel SPXL may be turned on, and the charge (or current) generated by the photodiode PD may be transferred to the j-th output line Vj through the transmission transistor T_TX, the first node N 1 ,the first transistor T 1 , the second transistor T 2 , and the j-th signal line RXj (or first sub-line RX_S 1  and second sub-line RX_S 2 ). 
     The integral circuit described with reference to  FIG.  4    may integrate the charge provided through the j-th output line Vj, and accordingly, a voltage level of the output signal Vout may be gradually increased and be saturated at a specific voltage level. 
     When a reflected light corresponding to the valley is incident on the sensor pixel SPXL, the output signal Vout may change along a first curve WF 1 , and may have a first voltage level Vvalley. Alternatively, when a reflected light corresponding to the ridge is incident on the sensor pixel SPXL, the output signal Vout may change along a second curve WF 2 , and may have a second voltage level Vridge. The second voltage level Vridge may be lower than the first voltage level Vvalley. 
     On the other hand, when noise flows into the input sensing device ISD (or sensor array PS), the output signal Vout corresponding to the ridge may change along a third curve WF 3  different from the second curve WF 2 , and may have a third voltage level Vnoise. In this case, a signal to noise ratio may decrease (e.g., a value of “(Vvalley−Vridge)/Vnoise” may decrease), and the ridge may not be sensed properly. For example, the difference between the first voltage level Vvalley and the second voltage level Vridge may lessen due to the noise, thereby preventing the ridge from being correctly sensed. 
     Therefore, the sensor pixel SPXL may reduce noise by using the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  connected between the first and second sub-lines RX_S 1  and RX_S 2  of the signal lines RXj−1, RXj, and RXj+1, and thus the sensing sensitivity (or a signal to noise ratio) of the input sensing device ISD may be improved. 
       FIG.  7    is a drawing describing a change in noise caused by the sensor pixels in  FIG.  5   . 
     Referring to  FIGS.  4 ,  5  and  7   , when the sensor pixel SPXL does not include the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2 , a load LOAD of the j-th signal line RXj may be expressed as 100%. For example, a level of noise NOISE flowing through the j-th signal line RXj having the load LOAD of 100% may be about 8.5 mV. 
     The sensor pixel SPXL may be electrically blocked by at least one of first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  in the first direction DR 1  of the j-th signal line RXj, and thus, the level of the noise NOISE flowing through the j-th signal line RXj may be reduced, For example, the sensor pixel SPXL may be electrically blocked by the first transistor T 1  or the second transistor T 2  or by both of the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  at the same time. 
     As described with reference to  FIGS.  4  and  5   , when each sensor pixel SPXL includes first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  and the j-th output line Vj, the bad LOAD of the j-th signal line RXj may be reduced to about 50% or less, and in this case, the level of noise NOISE flowing through the j-th signal line RXj may be reduced. For example, the level of the noise NOISE may be reduced to about 5 mV or less. 
       FIG.  8    is a circuit diagram showing another exemplary embodiment of the input sensing device of  FIG.  3   . 
     Referring to  FIGS.  3 ,  4 ,  5  and  8   , the input sensing device ISD_ 1  (or sensor array PS_ 1 ) of  FIG.  8    is different from the input sensing device ISD (or sensor array PS) of  FIG.  4    in that at least one sensor pixel SPXL includes only one of the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2 . 
     As shown in  FIG.  8   , a first sensor pixel SPXL 1  connected to the j-th output line Vj and farthest from the vertical driver  222 , may include the second transistor T 2  described with reference to  FIG.  5    and may not include the first transistor T 1 . 
     In addition, an nth sensor pixel SPXLn connected to the j-th output line Vj and closest to the vertical driver  222 , may include the first transistor T 1  described with reference to  FIG.  5    and may not include the second transistor T 2 . 
     Any sensor pixel connected to the j-th output line Vj and disposed between the first sensor pixel SPXL 1  and the n-th sensor pixel SPXLn may include both first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  as described with reference to  FIGS.  4  and  5   . In addition, any sensor pixel connected to the j-th output line Vj and disposed between the first sensor pixel SPXL 1  and the n-th sensor pixel SPXLn may include just one of the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  as described with reference to  FIGS.  4  and  5   . 
     As described with reference to  FIG.  8   , the input sensing device may include at least one sensor pixel (e.g., a first sensor pixel SPXL 1  and/or an n-th sensor pixel SPXLn) having a pixel structure different from the sensor pixel SPXL described with reference to  FIGS.  4  and  5   . 
       FIGS.  9 A and  9 B  are circuit diagrams showing an exemplary embodiment of a sensor array included in the input sensing device of  FIG.  3   . In  FIGS.  9 A and  9 B , sensor pixels SPXLi−1, SPXLi, and SPXLi+1 included in the i−1-th to i+1-th sensor pixel rows and the j-th sensor pixel column are shown. 
     Referring to  FIGS.  3 ,  4 ,  9 A and  9 B , a sensor array PS_ 2  shown in  FIGS.  9 A and  9 B  is different from the sensor array PS shown in  FIG.  4    in that the sensor pixels SPXLi−1, SPXLi, and SPXLi+1 include the first transistor T 1  or the second transistor T 2 . For example, in FIG,  9 A, each of the sensor pixels SPXLi−1, SPXLi, and SPXLi+1 includes just one transistor for controlling the connection between sub-lines RX_S 1 , RX_S 2 , RX_S 3 , and RX S 4  of the j-th signal line RXj. 
     The sensor array PS_ 2  may include a k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk (here k is a positive integer less than n), and the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk may include sensor pixels SPXLi−1and SPXLi, and a pair of first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  included therein. 
     As shown in  FIG.  9 A , the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk may include the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1 and the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi, in other words, two sensor pixels. 
     The i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1 (or an odd numbered sensor pixel) may include the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 and the first transistor T 1 , and may not include the second transistor T 2 . 
     The i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 may be connected to the power line PL 1 , the i−1-th driving line Hi−1, and the second sub-line RX_S 2 . Since the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 is substantially equivalent to the optical sensor PSC described with reference to  FIG.  5    except that it is connected to the second sub-line RX_S 2  instead of the first node N 1 , redundant descriptions will not be repeated. The first sub-line RX_S 1 , the second sub-line RX S 2 , the third sub-line RX_S 3 , and the fourth sub-line RX_S 4  may be included in the j-th signal line RXj. 
     The first transistor T 1  of the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1 may include a first electrode connected to the first sub-line RX_S 1 , a second electrode connected to the second sub-line RX_S 2  (or a second electrode of the transmission transistor TTX in the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1), and a gate electrode connected to the i−1-th driving line Hi−1. 
     The i-th sensor pixel SPXLi (or an even numbered sensor pixel) may include the i-th optical sensor PSCi and the second transistor T 2 , and may not include the first transistor T 1 . 
     The i-th optical sensor PSCi may be connected to the powerline PL 1 , the i-th driving line Hi, and the second sub-line RX_S 2 . The i-th optical sensor PSCi may be substantially equivalent to the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1. The i-th optical sensor PSCi (or the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi) and the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 (or the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1) may be directly connected to each other through the second sub-line RX_S 2 . In this case, a separate transistor for connecting or disconnecting the i-th optical sensor PSCi and the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 may not be disposed between the i-th optical sensor PSCi and the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1. 
     The second transistor T 2  of the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi may include a first electrode connected to the second sub-line RX_S 2  (or second electrode of the transmission transistor T_TX in the i-th optical sensor PSCi), a second electrode connected to the third sub-line RX_S 3 , and a gate electrode connected to the i-th driving line Hi. 
     The j-th output line Vj may be connected to the first sub-line RX_S 1  and the third sub-line RX_S 3 , and may be not directly connected to the second sub-line RX_S 2  and the fourth sub-line RX_S 4 . 
     In other words, the first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  for performing the noise prevention function for the i-th signal line RXj may be provided for each sensor pixel group (e.g., each sensor pixel group including two sensor pixels) instead of being provided for each sensor pixel SPXL described with reference to  FIG.  5   . 
     In this case, the number of transistors provided in the sensor array PS_ 2  (or input sensing device) may be reduced. 
     The i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1 may be included in a different sensor pixel group from the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk, and may include the optical sensor PSCi+1, and the first transistor T 1  connected between the third sub-line RX_S 3  and the fourth sub-line RX_S 4 , similar to the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1. 
     As described with reference to  FIG.  9 A , the sensor pixel group (or each of the sensor pixel groups) including a plurality of sensor pixels may include a pair of first and second transistors T 1  and T 2 . Therefore, the number of the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  provided in the sensor array PS_ 2  may be reduced, and thus manufacturing cost may be reduced. Furthermore, an integration density of the sensor pixel may be increased. 
     In  FIG.  9 A , the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1 (or i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1) and the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi (or i-th optical sensor PSCi) in the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk is shown to be electrically connected through the second sub-line RX_S 2 , but the configuration of the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in  FIG.  9 B , the j-th signal line RXj may include only the first sub-line RX_S 1  and the third sub-line RX_S 3  (e.g., odd numbered sub-lines), and may not include the second sub-line RX_S 2  and the fourth sub-line RX_S 4  (e.g., even numbered sub-lines, or sub-lines not directly connected to the j-th output line Vj). Thus, and the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1 and the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi in the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk may not be directly connected to each other. 
       FIG.  10    is a block diagram showing another exemplary embodiment of an input sensing device included in the display device of  FIG.  1 A . An input sensing device ISD_ 2  may include a sensor array PS_ 3  and an input detector  220 . 
     Referring to  FIGS.  1 A,  3  and  10   , the input sensing device ISD_ 2  of  FIG.  10    is different from the input sensing device ISD of  FIG.  3    in that it include a sensor array P 5 _ 3 , a horizontal driver  221 _ 1 , and a group driving lines GH 1  to GHp (here p is a positive integer less than n). Since the input sensing device ISD_ 2  of  FIG.  10    is substantially equivalent or similar to the input sensing device ISD of  FIG.  3    except for the sensor array PS_ 3 , the horizontal driver  221 _ 1 , and the group driving lines GH 1  to GHp, redundant descriptions will not be repeated. 
     The sensor array PS_ 3  may include a sensor pixel group G_SPXL_ 1  (or sensor pixel groups), and the sensor pixel group G_SPXL_ 1  may include a plurality of sensor pixels SPXL 1 _ 1  to SPXLq_ 1  (here q is an integer of 2 or more). 
     A specific configuration of sensor pixels SPXL 1 _ 1  to SPXLq_ 1  in the sensor pixel group G_SPXL_ 1  will be described later with reference to  FIG.  11   . 
     The horizontal driver  221 _ 1  may be connected to the sensor pixel group G_SPXL_ 1  through the group driving lines GH 1  to GHp (or second driving lines), The horizontal driver  221 _ 1  may be composed of a shift register, an address decoder, etc., and may sequentially apply the group driving signal (or group driving signals, or first driving signals) to the group driving lines GH 1  to GHp. Here, the group driving signal may be a signal for selectively driving the sensor pixel group G_SPXL_ 1 . The sensor pixels SPXL 1 _ 1  to SPXLq_ 1  included in the sensor pixel group G_SPXL_ 1  may receive the same group driving signal. 
     In addition, the horizontal driver  221 _ 1  may be connected to the sensor pixels SPXL 1 _ 1  to SPXLq_ 1  through driving lines H 1  to Hn (or first driving lines). The horizontal driver  221 _ 1  may sequentially apply the driving signal (or driving signals, or second driving signals) to the driving lines H 1  to Hn. 
     Each of the sensor pixels SPXL 1 _ 1  to SPXLq_ 1  selected by the group driving signal and the driving signal provided from the horizontal driver  221 _ 1  may sense light by using a photoelectric element therein, and may output an electrical signal corresponding to the sensed light. 
       FIG.  11    is a circuit diagram showing an exemplary embodiment of a sensor array included in the input sensing device of  FIG.  10   . In  FIG.  11   , sensor pixels SPXLi1_ 1 , SPXLi_ 1 , and SPXLi+ 1 _ 1  included in the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  (here k is a positive integer) and included in the i−1-th to i+1-th sensor pixel rows and the j-th sensor pixel column, are shown. 
     Referring to  FIG.  11   , the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  may include an i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi− 1 _ 1 , an i-th sensor pixel SPXLi_ 1 , and an i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1 . In other words, the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  ray include three sensor pixels SPXLi−1_ 1 , SPXLi_ 1 , and SPXLi+1_ 1 , However, this is just an example, and the number of sensor pixels included in the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  is not limited thereto. For example, the number of sensor pixels included in the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  may be two, or four or more. 
     The i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1_ 1  may include an i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 and a first transistor T 1 . 
     The i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 may be connected to the power line PL 1  the i−1-th driving line Hi−1, and the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 , and may be driven in response to a driving signal provided through the i−1-th driving line Hi−1. Since the i th optical sensor PSCi−1 is substantially equivalent to the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 described with reference to  FIG.  9 A , redundant descriptions will not be repeated. The first sub-line RX_S 1 _ 1 . the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 , and the third sub-line RX_S 3 _ 1  may be included in the j-th signal line RXj. 
     A first transistor T 1  of the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1  may include a first electrode connected to the first sub-line RX_S 1 _ 1 , a second electrode connected to the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1  (or a second electrode of the transmission transistor T_TX in the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1), and a gate electrode connected to the k-th group driving line GHk. 
     The i-th sensor pixel SPXLi_ 1  may include an i-th optical sensor PSCi, and may not include first and second transistors T 1  and T 2 . 
     The i-th optical sensor PSCi may be connected to the power line PL 1 , the i-th driving line Hi, and the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 , and may be driven in response to a driving signal provided through the i-th driving line Hi. The i-th optical sensor PSCi may be substantially equivalent to the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1. Since the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi_ 1  does not include the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2 , the transmission transistor T_TX in the i-th optical sensor PSCi may be directly connected to the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1  and to transmission transistor T_TX of the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 and the transmission transistor T_TX of the i+1-th optical sensor PSCi+1. 
     The i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1  may include an i+1-th optical sensor PSCi+1 and the second transistor T 2 . 
     The i+1-th optical sensor PSCi+1 may be connected to the power line PL 1 , the i+1-th driving line Hi+1, and the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 , and may be driven in response to a driving signal provided through the i+l-th driving line Hi+1. The i+1-th optical sensor PSCi+1 may be substantially equivalent or similar to the i-th optical sensor PSCi described with reference to  FIG.  9 A . 
     In this case, the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1 (or the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1_ 1 ), the i-th optical sensor PSCi (or the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi_ 1 ), and the i+1-th optical sensor PSCi+1 (or the i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1 ) may be directly connected to each other through the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 , and a separate transistor for connecting or disconnecting them, may not be disposed among the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1, the i-th optical sensor PSCi, and the i+1-th optical sensor PSCi+1. 
     A second transistor T 2  of the i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1  may include a first electrode connected to the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1  (or a second electrode of the transmission transistor T_TX in the i+1-th optical sensor PSCi+1), a second electrode connected to the third sub-line RX_S 3 _ 1 , and a gate electrode connected to the k-th group driving line GHk. 
     The j-th output line Vj may be connected to the first sub-line RX_S 1 _ 1  and the third sub-line RX_S 3 _ 1 , and may not be directly connected to the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 . 
     In this case, the first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  for performing the noise prevention function for the j-th signal line RXj may be provided for each sensor pixel group (e.g., a sensor pixel group including three sensor pixels). 
     An operation of each of the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  and the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1_ 1 , the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi_ 1 , and the i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1  included therein may be described with reference to  FIG.  12   . 
       FIG.  12    is a waveform diagram describing an operation of the sensor array of  FIG.  11   , according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. 
     Referring to  FIGS.  11  and  12   , a group driving signal GSCAN (or a first driving signal) may be provided to the k-th group driving line GHk (or a first driving line), an i−1-th driving signal SCANT- 1  (or, a second driving signal) may be provided to the i−1-th th driving line Hi−1, an i-th driving signal SCANT may be provided to the i-th driving line Hi, and an i+1-th driving signal SCANi+1 may be provided to the i+1-th driving line Hi+1. 
     In a first period P 1 , a second period P 2 , and a third period P 3 , the group driving signal GSCAN may have a logic low level (or a gate-on voltage level). In a period other than the first to third period P 1  to P 3 , the group driving signal GSCAN may have a logic high level (or a gate-off voltage level). 
     When the group driving signal GSCAN of the logical high level is provided to the k-th group driving line GHk (or when the group driving signal GSCAN is not provided to the k-th group driving line GHk), the first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  in the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  may maintain a turn-off state, and may electrically separate the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1_ 1 , the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi_ 1 , and the i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1  (and second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 ) from the first sub-line RX_S 1 _ 1  and the third sub-line RX_S 3 _ 1  (and the j-th output line Vj). In particular, the first sub-line RX_S 1 _ 1 , the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 , and the third sub-line RX_S 3 _ 1  may be electrically separated from each other, and thus the possibility that noise flows through the j-th signal line RXj and a size of the noise may be reduced. 
     When the group driving signal GSCAN of the logic low level is provided to the k-th group driving line GHk, the first transistor T 1  and the second transistor T 2  in the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  may be turned on, and may electrically connect the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1_ 1 , the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi_ 1 , and the i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1  to the j-th output line Vj through the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 . In this case, other sensor pixel groups (and sub-lines corresponding thereto) except for the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  may maintain a state electrically separated from the j-th output line Vj. 
     In the first period P 1  the i−1-th driving signal SCANi−1 may have a logic low level, and, as described with reference to  FIG.  6   , a photoelectrically converted charge (or a sensing signal) from the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1_ 1  (or the i−1-th optical sensor PSCi−1) may be transferred to the j-th output line Vj through the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 , the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2 , and the first and third sub-lines RX_S 1 _ 1  and RX_S 3 _ 1 . 
     Similarly, in the second period P 2 , after the first period P 1 , the i-th driving signal SCANi may have a logic low level, and the photoelectrically converted charge from the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi_ 1  (or the i-th optical sensor PSCi) may be transferred to the j-th output line Vj through the second sub-line RX_S 2 _ 1 , the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2 , and the first and third sub-lines RX_S 1 _ 1  and RX_S 3 _ 1 . 
     In the third period P 3 , after the first and second periods P 1  and P 2 , the i+1-th driving signal SCANi+1 may have a logic low level, and the photoelectrically converted charge from the i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1  (or the i+1-th optical sensor PSCi+1) may be transferred to the j-th output line Vj. 
     As described with reference to  FIGS.  11  and  12   , the sensor pixel group including a plurality of sensor pixels may include a pair of first and second transistors T 1  and T 2 . Therefore, the number of the first and second transistors T 1  and T 2  provided in the sensor array PS_ 3  may be reduced, and thus the manufacturing cost may be reduced, or the integration density of the sensor pixel may be increased. 
     In addition, when the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  includes two sensor pixels, the i-th sensor pixel SPXL−1 may be omitted in the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1 . In other words, the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_i may include only two sensor pixels corresponding to the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1_ 1  and the i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1 . 
     Alternatively, when the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXk_ 1  includes four or more sensor pixels, a plurality of i-th sensor pixels SPXLi_l may be provided in the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLki_ 1 . In other words, the k-th sensor pixel group G_SPXLk_ 1  may include two or more sensor pixels substantially equivalent to the i-th sensor pixel SPXLi_ 1  between the i−1-th sensor pixel SPXLi−1_ 1  and the i+1-th sensor pixel SPXLi+1_ 1 . 
     An input sensing device according to exemplary embodiments of the present invention and a display device including the same may reduce or block noise and leakage current that flows through the first signal line by including first and second transistors connected between sub-lines (or the first signal line) to which optical sensors are connected. Therefore, the sensing sensitivity of the input sensing device and the display device including the same can be increased. 
     While the present invention has been described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes in form and details may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as set forth in the following claims.
