Patent ID: 6919936

Claim:
An active matrix liquid crystal panel having a repairable configuration, comprising: an active matrix substrate including: a plurality of signal lines and scanning lines, which are arranged to form a matrix of pixels; a plurality of switching devices provided at intersections of the signal lines and the scanning lines; a plurality of comb-shaped pixel electrodes connected to the switching devices; a plurality of first common electrodes including closed-loop branches and root traces, wherein the closed-loop branches are connected to root traces; and a plurality of comb-shaped second common electrode including a plurality of first apertures and second apertures, wherein two ends of the signal lines are electrically connected to their adjoining closed-loop branches and root traces through the first apertures and the second apertures respectively if the signal lines are broken; an opposing substrate facing the active matrix substrate; and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the active matrix substrate and the opposing substrate.
