Liquid crystal display forming a coupling capacitor between a proximate and parallel portion of a drain electrode and a data line

Abstract

Provided is a liquid crystal display (LCD) with enhanced display qualities. The LCD includes a first insulating substrate; a gate line disposed on the first insulating substrate and extending in a first direction; first and second data lines insulated from and crossing the gate line, separated from each other, and extending in a second direction; first and second thin film transistors (TFTs) connected to the gate line and the first and second data lines, respectively; first and second subpixel electrodes connected to the first and second TFTs, respectively; and first and second drain electrode connection portions connecting the first and second TFTs to the first and second subpixel electrodes, respectively. The first and second drain electrode connection portions are electrically insulated from each other and together form a substantially rectangular band.
