As in Fig. 4, the dot structure on its upper substrate is: a pixel adopts certain mode matrix to rearrange by red R (Red), green G (green), blue B (blue), white W (White) four sub-pixels.
The structure of infrabasal plate is: by multiple thin film transistor (TFT) permutation and combination in a certain way, and in each sub-pixel one_to_one corresponding of upper substrate.I.e. red, green, blue, each corresponding thin film transistor (TFT) of white sub-pixel.
And, the grid of the thin film transistor (TFT) of the corresponding infrabasal plate of described R, G, B, W in a pixel tetra-sub-pixels is controlled by control line (G4m-3, G4m-2, G4m-1, G4m), and the source electrode of the thin film transistor (TFT) of the corresponding infrabasal plate of described R, G, B, W tetra-sub-pixels is controlled by data line (S2n-1, S2n).
Known in dot structure disclosed in the invention described above embodiment, a pixel is made up of four sub-pixels, respectively corresponding R, G, B, W tetra-sub-pixels.The mode connected in the process of a formation pixel due to four sub-pixels is different, the mode that each sub-pixel is connected with control line and data line also can be different, can have the multiple arrangement mode to R, G, B, W tetra-sub-pixels here to form a pixel.
Wherein, the arrangement mode that above-mentioned R, G, B, W tetra-sub-pixels adopt two row two to arrange forms a pixel.Specifically can see accompanying drawing 4:
R sub-pixel and G sub-pixel form a line, B sub-pixel and W sub-pixel and form a line; Meanwhile, R sub-pixel is corresponding with B sub-pixel form one to arrange, G sub-pixel and W sub-pixel is corresponding forms and arrange, combine and both form a complete pixel.Further, the grid being positioned at thin film transistor (TFT) corresponding to R, G, B, W sub-pixel of same pixel is controlled by four control lines respectively successively; The source electrode of the thin film transistor (TFT) that R, G, B, W sub-pixel is corresponding is by a data line traffic control.
In the formation process of pixel, add white sub-pixels by the present invention, make, when controlling white sub-pixels and opening, more white light to be penetrated from backlight, thus adds brightness; When controlling white sub-pixels and closing, white light cannot be penetrated from backlight, thus the effect of contrast can be increased, namely increase contrast.
