Abstract:
Disclosed is a liquid crystal display device having touch sensors embedded therein. The liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal layer interposed between upper and lower substrates, pixels, each of which includes pixel and common electrodes applying a horizontal electric field to the liquid crystal layer, a pixel thin film transistor to drive the pixel electrode, and a common thin film transistor to drive the common electrode, touch sensors, each of which forms a sensing capacitor between an object and the common electrode, sensor power lines, readout lines, and sensor gate lines. Each touch sensor includes the common electrode, a first sensor thin film transistor charging the common electrode with the sensing driving voltage in response to control of the previous sensor gate line, and a second sensor thin film transistor outputting the sensing signal to the readout line in response to control of the current sensor gate line.
