Patent ID: 7426002

Claim:
A transmissive type liquid crystal display with at least two matrix modes integrated within a panel, comprising: a first substrate; a second substrate opposite to the first substrate, wherein opposing inner surfaces of the first substrate and the second substrate have a plurality of thin film transistors and a color filter fabricated thereon, respectively; a first insulating layer located on the first substrate to cover the thin film transistors; a first set of electrodes, comprising a first lower electrode located on the first insulating layer; and a first upper electrode located on the color filter; a second insulating layer formed on the first lower electrode; a third insulating layer formed on the first upper electrode; and a second lower electrode formed on the second insulating layer, wherein only one of the first lower electrode and the second lower electrode is operatively coupled to one of the plurality of thin film transistors to correspond to an active matrix mode, and the other one of the first lower electrode and the second lower electrode corresponds to a passive matrix mode.
