Abstract

La présente invention porte sur un dispositif d'affichage qui peut améliorer des caractéristiques d'angle d'observation tout en augmentant une qualité d'affichage par rapport au dispositif classique. Une unité formant pixel (10) comprend de première et seconde unités formant sous-pixel (11, 12). La première unité formant sous-pixel (11) comprend un premier transistor en couches minces (T1), une première électrode de pixel (Epix1), un premier condensateur de cristaux liquides (Clc1), un premier condensateur auxiliaire (CcsA) et un second condensateur auxiliaire (CcsB), où CcsA > CcsB. Une extrémité de chacun des premier et second condensateurs auxiliaires (CcsA, CcsB) est reliée à la première électrode de pixel (Epix1). La destination de liaison de l'autre extrémité de chacun des premier et second condensateurs auxiliaires (CcsA, CcsB) est une première ligne CS (CSL1) ou une seconde ligne CS (CSL2). L'autre destination de liaison d'extrémité aux premier et second condensateurs auxiliaires (CcsA, CcsB) change en alternance pour chaque colonne. La seconde partie formant sous-pixel (12) comprend un second transistor en couches minces (T2), une seconde électrode de pixel (Epix2) et un second condensateur de cristaux liquides (Clc2).
