  • Patent number: 9081241
    Abstract: A pixel structure and a method for manufacturing the same are disclosed. The pixel structure of the present invention is a pixel structure implemented by combining an in-plane switching (IPS) technique and a fringe field switching (FFS) technique. In each pixel structure, two transparent conductive layers are utilized to form a storage capacitor (Cst) such that the capacitance of the storage capacitor can be increased without decreasing an aperture ratio of a display panel, and thereby a feedthrough voltage can be reduced so as to prevent a screen from blinking.
