Abstract:
A simplified tri-layer process for forming a thin film transistor matrix for a liquid crystal display is disclosed. By using a backside exposure technique twice, two masking steps for patterning an etch stopper layer, and an upper doped and a lower intrinsic semiconductor layers, respectively, can be omitted. Further, owing to the back-exposing energy for patterning the semiconductor layers is less than that for patterning the etch stopper layer, the resulting etch stopper layer is enclosed with the resulting semiconductor layers, and the contact of the two semiconductor layers can be achieved.

A liquid crystal panel includes a plurality of pixel units, each of which include gating lines, data lines, a pixel electrode and a thin film transistor (TFT). Common electrodes of first pixel units in a same row are electrically connected via a first common line, and common electrodes of second pixel units in the same row are electrically connected via a second common line.

Thereby a voltage difference can be maintained between the two sub-pixels under the same driving condition, and the voltage difference can be easily adjusted by suitably changing the waveforms of scanning drive signals on the scanning lines.
Abstract:
A driving method for a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel is provided. The method comprises applying corresponding overdriving data for source data to the LCD panel at the beginning of a frame; applying black data to the LCD panel before the end of the frame, wherein the polarities of the applied black data are the same as the pixel electrode driving polarity at the beginning of a next frame; and applying the source data to the LCD panel at a time between the application of the overdriving data and the application of the black data. The driving method of the invention eliminates the need for large TFTs by reducing the voltage change between the end of a previous frame and the beginning of a current frame, and also can perform pre-charging for the pixel electrodes without adding any other device.
