Abstract
An active matrix LCD which essentially differs from presently available active matrix LCDs in that the layout of a first electrode of a storage capacitor associated with each pixel thereof is modified in such a manner as to significantly increase the aperture and contrast ratios thereof relative to those of presently available active matrix LCDs. More particularly, the first electrodes of the storage capacitors are laid out in such a manner as to substantially surround their associated pixel electrodes, and preferably, only overlap a marginal edge portion of their associated pixel electrodes, about the periphery thereof.
