Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in the above-mentioned existing active matrix panel, since the two thin film transistors are only arranged in series in the vicinity of the intersections of the scan lines and the data lines arranged in a matrix in the lateral direction, the area occupied by the two thin film transistors in the lateral direction is The layout space becomes larger, which becomes an obstacle when the pixel pitch is reduced, or the aperture ratio becomes smaller.

Abstract

The invention provides an active matrix panel, which comprises a plurality of scanning beams (2), a plurality of data lines (3), and a plurality of switch elements (4,5) separately connected with the scanning beams (2) and the data lines (3); the switch elements (4,5,44,45) separately comprises semiconductor films (13,54), gate insulating films (14,53) and gate electrodes (15,16,51,52). The lateral configuration space occupied by the two thin film transistors (TFT) can be reduced, thereupon, the pixels interval can be reduced, or the aperture ratio can be increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to active matrix panels. Background technique [0002] In an active matrix panel of a liquid crystal display device, thin-film transistors are provided near the intersections of scan lines and data lines arranged in a matrix and connected to two lines, and pixel electrodes are connected to each thin-film transistor. structure. In this active matrix panel, in order not to reduce the on-current of the thin film transistor, the off-current is greatly reduced, as shown in JP-A-58-171860 ( Image 6 As shown in (a)), for example, there is a structure in which two thin film transistors are arranged in series in the lateral direction near each intersection of scanning lines and data lines arranged in a matrix. [0003] However, in the above-mentioned existing active matrix panel, since the two thin film transistors are only arranged in series in the vicinity of the intersections of the scan lines and the data lines arranged in a ...
