A display panel includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a liquid crystal layer, a pixel electrode, a common electrode, a first polarizer and a second polarizer. The pixel electrode includes a trunk portion, first to fourth branch portions, and first to fourth strip portions. The trunk portion extends along a first direction. The first and second branch portions are connected to a first end of the trunk portion. The third and fourth branch portions are connected to a second end of the trunk portion. The first strip portions are connected to the first and second branch portions. The second strip portions are connected to the third and fourth branch portions. The third strip portions are connected to the first and third branch portions and the trunk portion. The fourth strip portions are connected to the second and fourth branch portions and the trunk portion.

Display panel

A display device includes two adjacent pixel electrodes spaced apart from each other by a gap extending in a first direction, at least one signal line extending in the first direction and having at least one protrusion at at least one side thereof, and two adjacent common electrode lines spaced apart from each other. The orthogonal projection of one/the other common electrode line on the substrate is located between the orthogonal projection of the signal line on the substrate and the orthogonal projection of one/the other pixel electrode on the substrate. Each common electrode line has a bend segment bending away from the signal line, wherein the protrusion of the at least one signal line positionally corresponds to the bend segment of each common electrode line, and the length of the protrusion is not larger than the length of the bend segment.

A pixel structure includes a data line, a scan line, a common signal line, a first switching element, a second switching element, a first pixel electrode, and a second pixel electrode. The first switching element is electrically connected to the scan line and the data line. The second switching element is electrically connected to the scan line and the common signal line. The first pixel electrode is electrically connected to the first switching element. The second pixel electrode is electrically connected to the second switching element. The second pixel electrode surrounds the first pixel electrode.

Pixel structure

A pixel structure including a pixel electrode and an alignment electrode is provided. An outline of the pixel electrode is surrounded by first long and short sides, a second long side opposite to the first long side, and a second short side opposite to the first short side. The pixel electrode has a first opening, extending along the first long side, and a second opening, extending from the first opening toward the second long side. The first opening is narrower than the second opening. The alignment electrode is physically separated from the pixel electrode and includes a first extension portion adjacent to the second long side and two supplemental portions positioned at two ends of the first extension portion. The two supplemental portions both extend from the first extension portion toward the first long side and respectively along the first short side and the second short side.

An antenna system that generates radiation similar to that generated by a relativistic charged particle is provided. The antenna system includes a conducting wire carrying a current pulse with a net charge, called a quasi charged particle, which propagates near the speed of light and emits radiation. Preferably, the quasi charged particle is generated by using a pulsed laser to knock out electrons from the conducting wire. While propagating on the conducting wire near the speed of light, the quasi charged particle generates a synchrotron like radiation from a bent of the wire, an undulator like radiation from a sinusoidal or helical structure of the wire, a diffraction like radiation from an aperture transmitting the wire, a Smith-Purcell like radiation from a corrugated grating surface next to the wire, and a greatly wavelength-contracted undulator like radiation from an undulator with the wire aligned along the undulator axis.
