Patent ID: 8704739

Claim:
A display panel comprising: a common electrode; a first liquid crystal capacitor, a first electrode of the first liquid crystal capacitor being connected to the common electrode; a second liquid crystal capacitor, a first electrode of the second liquid crystal capacitor being the common electrode; a dummy gate line extending in a first direction; a dummy switching element having only three terminals in which a first terminal is electrically connected to a second electrode of the first liquid crystal capacitor, a second terminal electrically connected to a second electrode of the second liquid crystal capacitor and a third terminal of the three terminals is electrically connected to the dummy gate line, a first data line extending in a second direction and disposed crossing the dummy gate line; a gate line extending in the first direction and disposed adjacent to the dummy gate line, a coupling capacitor electrically connected between the second electrode of the first liquid crystal capacitor and the second electrode of the second liquid crystal capacitor; and a first switching element electrically connected to the first data line, the gate line, and the second electrode of the first liquid crystal capacitor.
