Liquid crystal display

Abstract

A liquid crystal display (“LCD”) includes; a gate line, a plurality of pairs of a first data line and a second data line which border a plurality of pixel regions and are disposed respectively on both sides of each pixel region, a plurality of pairs of first and second thin-film transistors (“TFTs”) which are connected to the gate line and a pair of the first and second data lines, and a first and second subpixel electrode disposed in each pixel region and connected to the first and second TFTs, respectively, wherein the pixel regions include first through third pixel regions arranged in the first direction, wherein at least one of the first and second TFTs of the second pixel region is disposed on a same side of an adjacent data line as the first and second subpixel electrodes of one of the first and third pixel regions.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A liquid crystal display comprising:
 a plurality of gate lines which extend in a first direction;   a plurality of data lines which are insulated from the gate line, overlap at least a portion of the plurality of gate lines, and extend in a second direction that is different from the first direction; and   a plurality of pixels, each of which displays an image based on a gate signal and a data signal received respectively from at least one of the plurality of gate lines and the plurality of data lines, wherein the plurality of pixels is divided into a plurality of pixel groups,   wherein each pixel group of the plurality of pixel groups comprises a blue pixel, a red pixel, a green pixel, and a white pixel, and   wherein the blue pixel, the red pixel, the green pixel, and the white pixel are arranged in a matrix shape, and the blue pixel is larger than the red pixel, the green pixel, and the white pixel.   
     
     
         2 . The liquid crystal display of  claim 1 , wherein the white pixel is smaller than the red pixel and smaller than the green pixel. 
     
     
         3 . The liquid crystal display of  claim 1 , wherein each pixel group comprises a first row extending along the first direction in which the red pixel and the green pixel are arranged and a second row extending along the first direction in which the blue pixel and the white pixel are arranged. 
     
     
         4 . The liquid crystal display of  claim 3 , wherein the blue pixel is larger than the red pixel and larger the green pixel, and the white pixel is smaller than the red pixel and smaller than the green pixel.
