US Patent 7427781 Thin film transistor array substrate

A thin film transistor array including a plurality of lower electrodes and a plurality of common lines for the storage capacitor of pixels is provided. The plurality of lower electrodes is electrically connected to the plurality of common lines by a connecting conductive layer, and the lower electrodes and the pixel electrodes serve as the conductive layers of the capacitor. The electrode branches are formed on the pixel area where the emitting efficiency is poor, the storage capacitance can be improved without decreasing the aperture ratio of the pixels, so as to improve the performance of the liquid crystal display apparatus.
