Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present disclosure relates to display technology, and more particularly to an array substrate and a liquid crystal device (LCD).

2. Discussion of the Related Art

With the technology development, the liquid crystal device (LCD) has been widely adopted as display devices. Usually, the voltage difference between the common electrode and the pixel electrode plays an important role with respect to the display performance. For instance, abnormal voltage difference may cause defects in the displayed grayscale, which is called as color shift. The grayscale voltage received by the pixel electrode is obtained by the alternated signals provided by the data lines, and the common voltage received by the common electrode is received by the wirings of the common voltage. However, as the voltage coupling may exist between the data line and the wirings of the common voltage, the common voltage may not achieve an optical threshold, which may result in color shift issue so as to affect the display performance.
