Liquid crystal display having a redundant storage capacitor for connection to one of plural pixels

DETAILED DESCRIPTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a redundantly constructed liquid crystal display which has high aperture efficiency.
In the liquid crystal display apparatus of the present invention, in which a plurality of pixels are arranged in a matrix at the intersections of a plurality of scan lines and a plurality of data lines, and storage capacitor lines are provided to supply the pixels with storage capacitors, the improvement comprises the pixels being arranged in groups of two pixels closely adjoining each other by arranging said scan lines so that for groups of two closely adjoining pixels, one storage capacitor line is provided every two adjoining pixels between the scan lines, the storage capacitor line being disposed in the same direction as that of said scan lines (or between a plurality of the data lines in the direction of the data lines) so that two storage capacitors corresponding to two adjoining pixels for each said group of pixels are provided, and one auxiliary capacitor is provided to be shared by every two adjoining pixels.
A liquid crystal display apparatus of the present invention, in which a plurality of pixels are arranged in a matrix at the intersections of a plurality of scan lines and a plurality of data lines, and storage capacitor lines are provided to supply the pixels with storage capacitors, comprises the improvement of the pixels being arranged in groups of four adjoining pixels by arranging said scan lines so that groups of two pixels closely adjoin each other, and by arranging said data lines so that groups of two pixels closely adjoin each other and a storage capacitor line is provided between the groups of scan lines in the same direction as said scan lines (or between groups of the data lines in the direction of the data lines) so that four storage capacitors corresponding to four adjoining pixels are provided for each said storage capacitor line and so that one auxiliary storage capacitor is provided to be shared by every four adjoining pixels
