Abstract
An array substrate includes a gate line, a data line, a pixel electrode, a first thin film transistor, and a second thin film transistor. The gate line includes a plurality of sub lines receiving a gate signal. The data line crosses the gate line. The pixel electrode is between adjacent sub lines. The first thin film transistor is electrically connected to a first sub line of the adjacent sub lines, the pixel electrode, and the data line. The second thin film transistor is electrically connected to a second sub line of the adjacent sub lines, the pixel electrode, and the data line. Therefore, an image display quality is improved.
