Description
Technical field
The invention belongs to the technical field of electro-optical devices such as liquid crystal device, particularly, belong to by be equipped with to be arranged in rectangular pixel electrode carry out switch control transistor and to the sweep trace of each pixel column setting by line sequentially feeding sweep signal with the electro-optical device of the form of carrying out driven with active matrix, be fit to the technical field that is used to the drive unit of such electro-optical device and has been equipped with the electronic installation of such electro-optical device.
Background technology
In this electro-optical device, on substrate with pixel electrode, be used for to this pixel electrode carry out switch thin film transistor (TFT) (the following TFT that suitably is called), to the grid of this TFT supply with sweep signal sweep trace, the data line of picture signal and the holding capacitor that is connected with pixel electrode etc. supplied with in the source of this TFT be arranged on image display area.And, the scan line drive circuit of sweep trace being supplied with sweep signal is set in the surrounding zone of the periphery that is positioned at image display area, data line is supplied with the driving circuit of the data line drive circuit of picture signal and sample circuit etc.
More particularly, scan line drive circuit has the sweep signal of pulse type waveform by the line order to every sweep trace or every row supply.That is, supply with sweep signal, the TFT that makes sweep trace with m (, m is a natural number) row connect here turn-offs, and meanwhile, makes the TFT conducting that is connected with the capable sweep trace of m+1.Therewith concurrently, data line drive circuit is supplied with picture signal in each horizontal scan period to each data line, makes through leaking pixel electrode to be write picture signal from the source because of the TFT of the effect conducting of sweep signal.So,, write the image of delegation's part a horizontal scan period by the supply of such sweep signal and picture signal.And then this writes work by in vertical scanning period whole row being carried out successively, is constituted as writing of piece image.
Yet,, have stray capacitance between the leakage of the TFT that pixel electrode that m+1 is capable and m are capable, sweep trace, the electric capacity line etc. owing to making TFT, sweep trace, electric capacity line, data line etc. in the gap that is aligned to rectangular pixel electrode in the plane.Therefore, use the sweep signal of the waveform with pulse type, in the moment that the capable TFT of m is turn-offed, as make the capable TFT conducting of m+1, then in the picture signal that is written to the capable pixel electrode of m, the sweep signal during m+1 is capable etc. is mixed as noise.Variation has taken place in the pixel current potential that should keep originally in each pixel electrode thus.On stray capacitance, be that non-uniform phenomenon appears in unit particularly, on shown image, produce the uneven problem of pixel color so finally have with the pixel.
And, general requirement in such technical field that should become more meticulous along the height of display image, along with the miniaturization of pel spacing, the stray capacitance between the leakage of the TFT that pixel electrode that above-mentioned m+1 is capable and m are capable, sweep trace, the electric capacity line etc. relatively increases, so more shape is serious for the problems referred to above.
In addition, the waveform of sweep signal is because of there being this wiring capacitance rust.Therefore, the degree of sweep signal rust is being big with the latter near the periphery of the image display area of scan line drive circuit and in away from the central portion of the image display area of scan line drive circuit.Therefore, along with the degree of the waveform rust of sweep signal, the break-make of TFT the time be engraved in periphery and central portion dissimilates.Consequently, as mentioned above, the The noise that is produced by the sweep signal of next line etc. that is incorporated into when turn-offing TFT in the picture signal is also different at periphery and central portion.Thereby, particularly, for preventing that liquid crystal etc. from degenerating and prevent flicker, when in field duration etc., adopting the interchange inversion driving of the driving current potential counter-rotating that makes each pixel electrode, central portion at image display area, if regulate the current potential of opposite electrode, make in being added to the current potential of liquid crystal, not produce DC component, then just produced such DC component at periphery.Otherwise, at the periphery of image display area,, make in being added to the current potential of liquid crystal, not produce DC component if regulate the current potential etc. of sweep signal, then just produced such DC component at central portion.Therefore, at periphery and central portion, the problem that flicker takes place is arranged all.
On the other hand, consider capable sweep trace of m and the capable TFT of m that is driven by it, owing to have stray capacitance between the leakage of sweep trace and TFT, the pulse type waveform of sweep signal exerts an influence to the pixel current potential in leaking.Specifically, in the moment that corresponding grid are turn-offed, the pulse type current potential corresponding with the pulse type waveform of sweep trace be as on the current potential of noise attached to picture signal, and be held as the pixel current potential.Thereby, at this moment, result from periphery differently with the degree of central portion sweep signal rust, the The noise that is incorporated in the picture signal is also different at periphery and central portion.Therefore, be added to the current potential difference of liquid crystal, luminance level difference, the problem that when exchanging counter-rotating, also has certain generation in periphery and central portion to glimmer simultaneously.Have, in order to prevent the generation of such flicker, the falling waveform that makes sweep signal is not that square waveform and the technology that makes ramp waveform or stepped waveform are opened in the flat 6-110035 communique the spy and disclosed again.Yet, adopt the generation of the inhomogeneous and flicker of the pixel color of the stray capacitance between the leakage, sweep trace, electric capacity line etc. of the capable TFT of pixel electrode that this method can not prevent to result from that above-mentioned m+1 is capable and m.
Summary of the invention
The present invention carries out in view of the above problems, its purpose is, in order to make central portion and alleviating of brightness irregularities in the periphery and flicker become possibility, provide the electro-optical device that can carry out high quality image and show, the electronic installation that is suitable for the drive unit of such electro-optical device and has been equipped with such electro-optical device at image display area.
In order to solve above-mentioned problem, electro-optical device of the present invention be included in be configured to rectangular a plurality of pixel electrodes on the substrate, be used for to this pixel electrode carry out switch control thin film transistor (TFT), to the grid of this thin film transistor (TFT) should supply with the sweep trace that makes above-mentioned thin film transistor (TFT) become the sweep signal of ON state or OFF state and be provided with, when above-mentioned thin film transistor (TFT) becomes above-mentioned ON state through it the source and leak the reply pixel electrodes and supply with picture signal and data line that is provided with and the sweep signal supply circuit of above-mentioned sweep trace being supplied with said scanning signals by the line order.The said scanning signals supply circuit at the current potential that makes said scanning signals from the process that the noble potential that makes above-mentioned thin film transistor (TFT) become above-mentioned ON state changes to the electronegative potential that becomes above-mentioned OFF state, and the process that the current potential that makes said scanning signals changes from above-mentioned electronegative potential to above-mentioned noble potential, the current potential of said scanning signals is fixed on the intermediate potential that is between above-mentioned noble potential and the above-mentioned electronegative potential with the stipulated time.

In image display area, sweep signal G1, G2 ..., Gm is applied on the grid of TFT through sweep trace 3a from sweep signal supply circuit 104 by the line order.By closing switch in specified time limit as the TFT30 of pixel switch element, the picture signal S1, the S2 that supply with from data line 6a ..., Sn is written on the pixel electrode 9a with numerical time.Through pixel electrode 9a be written to picture signal S1, S2 as the specified level of the liquid crystal of an example of electro-optical substance ..., Sn and be formed on be held between the opposite electrode on the counter substrate described later constant during.Liquid crystal changes according to the orientation of its elements collection of voltage level that is applied and to preface, thereby light is modulated, and gray scale is shown becomes possibility.As be normal white mode, to the transmissivity of incident light along with reducing by the voltage that unit applied of each pixel, as be normal black pattern, to the transmissivity of incident light along with increasing by the voltage that unit applied of each pixel, as a whole, the light with contrast corresponding with picture signal penetrates from electro-optical device.Here, the picture signal that keeps for preventing is sewed, and the liquid crystal capacitance that forms between pixel electrode 9a and opposite electrode extra storage electric capacity 70 in parallel.Will describe in detail as the back, memory capacitance 70 comprises the pixel current potential lateral capacitance electrode that is connected to pixel electrode 9a and clamping dielectric film and the set potential lateral capacitance electrode that disposed in opposite directions and constitute therewith.Be formed such set potential lateral capacitance electrode with the part of the electric capacity line 300 of the set potential of sweep trace 3a parallel arranged.
Then, as shown in Figure 2, on the tft array substrate of electro-optical device, a plurality of transparent pixel electrode 9a (9a ' of with dashed lines portion illustrates its profile) are configured to rectangular, and the border in length and breadth along pixel electrode 9a is provided with data line 6a and sweep trace 3a respectively.
In addition, sweep trace 3a is configured to and with Fig. 2 among the semiconductor layer 1a to the channel region 1a ' shown in the hatched example areas of upper right side inclination in opposite directions, sweep trace 3a comprises gate electrode.Sweep trace 3a is constituted as the width that broad is partly arranged with channel region 1a ' gate electrode in opposite directions.
Like this, at the crossover sites place of the body 61a of sweep trace 3a and data line 6a, be separately positioned on the TFT30 that pixel switch that the part of sweep trace 3a among the channel region 1a ' disposed in opposite directions as gate electrode is used.
Relay layer 71 is set up as the pixel current potential lateral capacitance electrode that is connected with pixel electrode 9a with the high concentration drain region of TFT30.Upside at relay layer 71, along sweep trace 3a as the part of the electric capacity line 300 of set potential lateral capacitance electrode and be set up, the two clips pixel current potential lateral capacitance electrode and set potential lateral capacitance electrode dielectric film and is disposed in opposite directions, forms the memory capacitance that is connected with pixel electrode 9a in view of the above.See that in the plane electric capacity line 300 extends with strip along sweep trace 3a, position up and down the giving prominence to Fig. 2 overlapping with TFT30.The downside of TFT30 on tft array substrate 10, downside photomask 11a is configured to latticed.On sweep trace 3a, offered respectively from data line 6a and led to the contact hole 81 in high concentration source region and be formed from the interlayer dielectric that relay layer 71 leads to the contact hole 83 in high concentration drain region.
On data line 6a, formed the interlayer dielectric that leads to the contact hole 85 of relay layer 71 from pixel electrode 9a and be formed, and then on this interlayer dielectric, pixel electrode 9a has been set.
Then, describe the said scanning signals supply circuit in detail referring to figs. 1 through Fig. 5.Here, Fig. 3 is the sequential chart of data-signal, sweep signal etc. in the comparative example.Fig. 4 is the stage casing wave circuit in the present embodiment and the block scheme of sweep signal supply circuit, and Fig. 5 is the sequential chart of data-signal, sweep signal in the present embodiment etc.
Have, in the present embodiment, the current potential by same polarity in same drives all pixel electrode 9a again, carries out making in the field duration field reversal of these current potential counter-rotatings to drive simultaneously.That is, the picture signal of supplying with from data-signal supply circuit 101 is to be the picture signal that unit is exchanged counter-rotating with the field.
In Fig. 2, suppose that the grid of the TFT30 that the pixel electrode B capable with being arranged in pixel electrode 9a m is connected are grid 402, suppose that the sweep signal of supplying with these grid 402 is sweep signal Gm.On the other hand, suppose that the grid of the TFT30 that the pixel electrode C capable with being arranged in pixel electrode 9a m+1 is connected are grid 404, suppose that the sweep signal of supplying with these grid 404 is sweep signal Gm+1.
In structure shown in Figure 2, on the sweep trace 3a that supplies with sweep signal Gm, overlapping among the pixel electrode C of this next line with a part of E shown in the hacures.And, since between the two that is piled up stacked interlayer dielectric thinner, between produces stray capacitance.In addition, for leakage, data line 6a and the electric capacity line 300 of TFT30, also produce either large or small stray capacitance respectively and between the pixel electrode C of this next line.
Thereby, suppose in such structure, make the capable TFT30 of m become the moment of OFF state, as supposition from sweep signal supply circuit 104 supply with the pulse type square waves sweep signal Gm, Gm+1 ..., make the capable TFT30 of m+1 become ON state, then owing to the effect of above-mentioned stray capacitance, the sweep signal that m+1 is capable, picture signal etc. are mixed in the pixel current potential of the capable pixel electrode B of m as noise.
Situation as shown in Figure 3 more specifically.Shift-register circuit generates the basic waveform P1 of each sweep signal G1～Gm from clock.Basic waveform P1 is the transmission output waveform by the order displacement of sweep signal G1～Gm.If negative edge 452 places at sweep signal Gm, in the moment that the grid 402 of pixel electrode B will be closed, open the grid 404 of pixel electrode C at rising edge 454 places of sweep signal Gm+1, then the current potential of sweep signal Gm changes owing to the effect of above-mentioned stray capacitance for example makes through the change in voltage among the pixel electrode C of grid 404.Thus, negative edge 452 image curves 456 such deflections of sweep signal Gm for example, the grid 402 of pixel electrode B are not closed.So the picture signal 464 that should be written to pixel electrode C is also mixed in the picture signal 462 that should be written to pixel electrode B as noise.And, owing in above-mentioned stray capacitance, be that unit has unevenness with the pixel, thereby such potential change that writes has caused that color of pixel is inhomogeneous.Have, drive in order to carry out field reversal, picture signal Sn shown in Figure 3 is a benchmark with the benchmark electricity 458 of for example 0V, makes picture signal 462 and picture signal 464 be same polarity.
In addition, under the situation of comparative example shown in Figure 3, sweep signal Gm, Gm+1 ... waveform in fact because of the wiring capacitance rust of sweep trace 3a is arranged.Therefore, the break-make of TFT30 is different at periphery that relates to left and right directions and central portion according to the rust degree of the waveform of sweep signal and in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 constantly.Consequently, the moment that aforesaid TFT30 is turn-offed, the The noise that causes because of the sweep signal of mixing the next line in the picture signal etc. also has nothing in common with each other at periphery and central portion.Thereby, particularly, in field duration etc., adopt under the situation of interchange inversion driving of the driving current potential counter-rotating that makes each pixel electrode, central portion at image display area, if regulate the current potential of sweep signal etc., make in driving current potential, not produce the DC component that causes by such noise, then produced the DC component that causes by such noise at periphery.Otherwise, at the periphery of image display area,, make in driving current potential, not produce the DC component that causes by such noise if regulate the current potential etc. of sweep signal, then produced the DC component that causes by such noise at central portion.
Above result is according to comparative example shown in Figure 3, generating the uneven while of pixel color, at periphery or central portion flicker to have taken place also.
To this, particularly in the present embodiment as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5, sweep signal supply circuit 104 is constituted as: the supply voltage Vdd2 that supplies with the buffer circuit 508 of its final stage is changed to voltage Vm and voltage Vc1 by means of stage casing wave circuit 550 by 2 values.And, for each sweep trace, the process of the current potential that makes sweep signal G1～Gm 0 variation from noble potential Vc1 to electronegative potential, make the current potential of sweep signal G1～Gm be fixed on intermediate potential Vm with the set time, in addition, for each sweep trace, the process that the current potential that makes sweep signal G1～Gm changes from electronegative potential 0 to noble potential Vc1, make the current potential of sweep signal G1～Gm be fixed on intermediate potential Vm with the set time.
Below, with reference to Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, the sweep signal supply circuit 104 that further will so constitute and the detailed structure of stage casing wave circuit 550 are illustrated in the lump together with its work.
In Fig. 4, sweep signal supply circuit 104 comprises shift-register circuit 504, phase inverter 506 and buffering circuit 508.Shift-register circuit 504 is set up the basic waveform P1 of each sweep signal G1～Gm from clock Vdd1.Basic waveform P1 is the transmission output waveform by the order displacement of sweep signal G1～Gm.Basic waveform P1 is formed the sweep signal G1～Gm of two ladder wave as shown in Figure 5 by phase inverter 506 and buffering circuit 508.
Stage casing wave circuit 550 comprises DAC520, variohm 522,528 and 530, amplifier 524, transistor 532,534 and 536 and pulse generating circuit 526 and being configured.
In order to determine intermediate potential Vm, the output of DA transducer 520 is imported in the variohm 522.This is because can be by DA transducer 520 from digital signal (D) decision simulation current potential amount (A), and then also can determine current potential in variohm 522.Utilize amplifier 524 to make the output of this variohm 522 carry out impedance conversion.The output of this amplifier 524 is decided to be intermediate potential Vm.
On the other hand, the pulse that utilizes pulse generating circuit 526 to generate than rising hysteresis ta time of basic waveform P1 to rise, descends than the leading tb of decline time of basic waveform P1 from clock Vdd1.Here, ta time and tb time can be utilized variohm 528 and 530 changes.It is the pulse of intermediate potential Vm that the output of pulse generating circuit 526 generates its crest voltage through transistor 532.Make the voltage level shifting of this pulse with transistor 534, and then to form its crest voltage with transistor 536 be that the current potential of supply voltage Vc1 and bottom is the pulse of intermediate potential Vm.
So, utilize stage casing wave circuit 550, as shown in Figure 5, the bottom current potential of pulse is intermediate potential Vm, and when rising, reaching the supply voltage Vc1 of crest voltage, generate the supply voltage Vdd2 that descends, reaches intermediate potential Vm than the leading tb of decline time of basic waveform P1 than rising hysteresis ta time of basic waveform P1.Have, picture signal Sn comprises the decline of the pulse of supply voltage Vdd2 again.
Then, such supply voltage Vdd2 is imported into the source of the complementary type TFT of buffer circuit 508 as high power supply.So, because the inversion waveforms of basic waveform P1 is imported into the grid of the complementary type TFT of buffer circuit 508, so the output of buffer circuit 508 becomes its synthetic waveform.That is, the output of buffer circuit 508 become sweep signal G1, G2 with two ladder waveforms 604 shown in Figure 5 ....More particularly, have two ladder waveforms 604 sweep signal G1, G2 ... from the reference potential (0V) on ground,, reach intermediate potential Vm roughly side by side rising with the rising of basic waveform P1.Here, sweep signal is retained as intermediate potential Vm at ta in the time.At ta after the time and then reach the current potential of supply voltage Vc1 and be maintained at this current potential.Thus, open the grid of the TFT that pixel switch uses, beginning picture signal Sn writes.Thereafter, sweep signal G1, G2 ... with than the leading tb of decline time of basic waveform P1 and descend, reach intermediate potential Vm.Constantly roughly side by side drop to the reference potential (0V) on ground with the decline of basic waveform P1.And, because data-signal Sn comprises the decline of sweep time, close the grid of the TFT that pixel switch uses, finish writing of picture signal Sn.
Have as above the two ladder waveforms that generate sweep signal G1, G2 ... intermediate potential Vm be set to and make each TFT30 become the current potential of incomplete ON state.Thereby, as shown in Figure 3, with directly be converted to completely ON state and compare with the situation of the comparative example of OFF state completely, even because the effect of above-mentioned stray capacitance, the composition of the sweep signal that m+1 is capable, picture signal etc. mixes in the capable sweep signal of m, the picture signal etc. as noise contribution, also can reduce the potential change that is caused by this noise contribution.
As mentioned above, according to present embodiment, in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, when the capable TFT30 of m is turn-offed, even because the effect of above-mentioned stray capacitance, sweep signal during m+1 is capable etc. is mixed as noise, also can be reduced the variable quantity of the pixel current potential that should keep in each pixel electrode 9a by the sweep signal G1 with two ladder waveforms～Gm.Thereby it is inhomogeneous finally can to reduce the pixel color that generates on shown image.Particularly, even pel spacing above-mentioned stray capacitance after miniaturization increases, also can reduce the baneful influence that causes thus to image quality.And then, when adopt exchanging inversion driving, all can reduce flicker in the two at the central portion of image display area and periphery.Thus, finally can make and to have reduced pixel color high quality images inhomogeneous and flicker and show and become possibility.
Have, in the embodiment of above explanation, the TFT30 that pixel switch is used is decided to be top gate type again, but is that the TFT of bottom gate type also can.In addition, TFT30 also can constitute and comprise the single-crystal semiconductor layer of introducing because of the SOI that fits.In addition, switch preferably has the LDD structure with TFT30, but both can have low concentration source region 1b and low concentration drain region 1c not being carried out the off-set construction that foreign ion injects, also can be to be mask forms high concentration source region and drain region with the high concentration implanting impurity ion, with self-aligned manner autoregistration type TFT with the gate electrode that the part by sweep trace 3a constitutes.In addition, in the present embodiment, can be formed on single grid structure of the gate electrode of the TFT30 that the pixel switch that only disposes 1 between high concentration source region 1d and the high concentration drain region 1e uses, but also can between them, dispose the gate electrode more than 2.In addition, be not limited to apply the present invention to the liquid crystal device of porjection type or transmission-type, also can be applicable to the liquid crystal device of reflection-type, can obtain reducing the effect of the inhomogeneous and flicker of the pixel color of present embodiment equally.
