In more detail, when the Oxide semiconductor pattern of one sub Oxide TFT is deteriorated, both the on-state current Ion and the off-state current Ioff of the sub Oxide TFT are increased, so that under the condition that each sub Oxide TFT is controlled to be in a conducting state and the whole Oxide thin film transistor is conducted, the on-state current Ion of the whole Oxide thin film transistor is increased under the influence of the on-state current Ion of the sub Oxide TFT, and the charging capability of the Oxide thin film transistor is effectively improved; on the other hand, when the Oxide thin film transistor is turned off, each of the sub Oxide TFTs is in an off state, and therefore, even if the off-state current Ioff of the sub Oxide TFT increases, the off-state current Ioff of the entire Oxide thin film transistor is not affected by the increased off-state current Ioff, and the off-state current Ioff of the entire Oxide thin film transistor can be maintained at a low level.
