Patent ID: 8411003

Claim:
A liquid crystal display (LCD), comprising: (a) a plurality of gate lines, {G n }, n=1, 2, . . ., N, N being an integer greater than zero, spatially arranged along a row direction; (b) a plurality of data lines, {D m }, m=1, 2, . . ., M, M being an integer greater than zero, spatially arranged crossing the plurality of gate lines {G n } along a column direction perpendicular to the row direction; and (c) a plurality of pixels, {P n,m }, spatially arranged in the form of a matrix, each pixel P n,m defined between two neighboring gate lines G n , and G n+1 and two neighboring data lines D m and D m +1 , and comprising: (i) a first sub-pixel electrode; (ii) a second sub-pixel electrode; (iii) a first transistor having a gate electrically coupled to the gate line G n+1 , a source, and a drain electrically coupled to the first sub-pixel electrode; (iv) a second transistor having a gate electrically coupled to the gate line G n , a source electrically coupled to the source of the first transistor, and a drain electrically coupled to the second sub-pixel electrode; and (v) a third transistor having a gate electrically coupled to the gate line G n+2 , a source electrically coupled to one of the two neighboring data lines D m and D m+1 , and a drain electrically coupled to the sources of the first and second transistors.
