Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional ultra-high-definition liquid crystal displays with narrow bezels experience display abnormalities due to parasitic capacitances between data lines and pixel units, causing vertical crosstalk and affecting product quality.

Innovation Solution

A pixel structure with a modified data line configuration, comprising first, second, and third data line sections, arranged symmetrically and electrically connected, which reduces resistance and capacitance load, and increases charging rate, thereby offsetting the coupling effect from parasitic capacitances.

1Length of stationary object

If data lines are positioned close to pixel units to achieve narrow bezel design, then the bezel width is reduced, but parasitic capacitance between data lines and pixel units increases causing vertical crosstalk

Core Design Contradiction:
Length of stationary objectVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The data line is divided into three sections: first data line section (between main pixel regions), second data line section (on sub-pixel region of first pixel unit), and third data line section (on sub-pixel region of second pixel unit). This segmentation allows different portions of the data line to serve different functions and reduces overall parasitic capacitance impact on pixel units.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The second and third data line sections are extracted from the conventional single continuous data line path and positioned specifically on sub-pixel regions. This extraction allows the data line to bypass areas that would create excessive parasitic capacitance with pixel unit electrodes, thereby reducing vertical crosstalk while maintaining narrow bezel design.

Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The data line is segmented into three distinct sections with different routing paths. The first data line section connects between main pixel regions, while the second and third sections are positioned on sub-pixel regions of adjacent pixel units. This segmentation reduces the overall resistance and capacitance load by optimizing the current path, thereby increasing the charging rate to the pixel units.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Different sections of the data line are positioned in different locations with different electrical characteristics. The second and third data line sections are specifically positioned on sub-pixel regions where they experience different parasitic capacitance conditions compared to the first data line section. This local quality variation optimizes the overall electrical performance by reducing total resistance and capacitance load.
