The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device and a driving method thereof capable of improving image quality by preventing luminance deviation between an upper end portion and a lower end portion of a liquid crystal panel.

Recently, the liquid crystal display (Liquid Crystal Display) is the most used because of the excellent image quality, light weight, thin, low power characteristics of the display elements.

1 is a pixel equivalent circuit diagram of a general liquid crystal display device.

Referring to FIG. 1, a general liquid crystal display device defines a pixel at an intersection of a gate line GL and a data line DL, and each pixel is a thin film transistor (TFT) and a liquid crystal connected to a TFT. A capacitor Clc and a storage capacitor Cst are provided. The liquid crystal capacitor Clc includes a pixel electrode connected to the TFT, and a common electrode for applying an electric field to the liquid crystal together with the pixel electrode. The common voltage is supplied to the common electrode.

The liquid crystal display displays an image by driving the liquid crystal by the pixel voltage charged in the liquid crystal capacitor Clc and the storage capacitor Cst according to the data signal. However, when the pixel voltage always has the same polarity, that is, a positive value or a negative value, the liquid crystal is deteriorated. Accordingly, a data inversion method for changing the polarity of the data signal every frame has been introduced. In order to reduce the driving voltage of the data signal during data inversion, a common voltage AC driving method of changing the polarity of the common voltage Vcom every frame has been introduced.

However, when the polarity of the common voltage Vcom is changed every frame according to the common voltage alternating current driving, the pixel voltage is shifted together and the pixel voltage does not maintain the original voltage value during the shifted pixel voltage. As a result, the voltage between the pixel voltage and the common voltage, that is, the voltage applied to the liquid crystal is lowered, and as shown in FIG. 2, a luminance difference occurs at the upper end and the lower end of the liquid crystal panel 100. As such, the luminance deviation of the liquid crystal panel 100 is further increased from the upper end to the lower end, thereby degrading the luminance uniformity of the liquid crystal panel 100.

Meanwhile, the liquid crystal panel 2 includes a common electrode 34 that forms an electric field together with the pixel electrode 38, and the common electrode 34 is vertical such as a twisted nematic (TN) mode and a vertical alignment (VA) mode. In the electric field driving method, the substrate is formed on the upper substrate, and in the horizontal electric field driving method such as the IPS (In Plane Switching) mode and the FFS (Fringe Field Switching) mode, it is formed on the lower substrate together with the pixel electrode. The present invention can be applied to both a vertical electric field driving method and a horizontal electric field driving method. The upper polarizing film 16a is attached to the upper substrate of the liquid crystal panel 2, and the lower polarizing film 16b is attached to the lower substrate of the liquid crystal panel 2.
