Title: Innovations of Tomoki Noda
Introduction
Tomoki Noda is a prominent inventor based in Tsu, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of liquid crystal displays, holding a total of 10 patents. His work focuses on enhancing display technology through innovative methods and designs.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a liquid crystal display that includes source lines defining an opening portion and a defect correcting method for the same. This invention utilizes a pixel division method that significantly reduces the size of defects compared to conventional methods. The liquid crystal display features an active matrix array substrate with multiple gate lines and source lines arranged on a transparent substrate, intersecting to form a matrix of pixel electrodes. Each pixel electrode consists of several sub-pixel electrodes, with separate thin-film transistors (TFTs) connected to them. These TFTs are driven by a common gate line and source line, and an opening portion is formed in a lower-layer side line at the intersection.
Another notable patent involves a substrate for a display panel that includes an alignment accuracy measurement mark. This mark is designed to measure alignment accuracy between patterns on the substrate without compromising the aperture ratio of a pixel. The alignment accuracy measurement mark is configured in an isolated manner and is positioned on the gate signal line, ensuring precise measurements between various signal lines.
