Description

[0001] LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE [0002]

The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device.

The liquid crystal display device has a wide application range due to features such as light weight, thinness, and low power consumption driving. This liquid crystal display device is used as a portable computer such as a notebook PC, an office automation device, an audio / video device, and an indoor / outdoor advertisement display device. A liquid crystal display device displays an image using a thin film transistor (hereinafter referred to as "TFT") as a switching element.

A liquid crystal display device having such characteristics includes two substrates facing each other and a liquid crystal layer formed therebetween. Specifically, as shown in Fig. 1, the liquid crystal display device is arranged such that the first substrate SUB1 on which the color filter array CF ARY is formed and the second substrate SUB2 on which the TFT array ARY is formed face each other, SUB1, and SUB2 of the liquid crystal layer LC having the dielectric anisotropy. A liquid crystal display device is driven in such a manner that a TFT formed in each of a plurality of pixels is switched and a data voltage for image display is applied to the corresponding pixel.

1, the first substrate SUB1 is provided with a color filter array CF ARY including a red color filter (RCF), a green color filter (GCF), and a blue color filter (BCF) And a black matrix BM for preventing optical interference between neighboring color filters are formed. (Including the data lines to which the data voltages are applied and the gate lines to which the scan pulse is applied) and the TFT arrays (including the TFTs ARY And liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD for applying an electric field to the liquid crystal layer LC are formed. The liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD include a first liquid crystal driving electrode ETD1 opposed to the red color filter RCF, a second liquid crystal driving electrode ETD2 opposed to the green color filter GCF, The third liquid crystal driving electrode ETD3 is opposed to the third liquid crystal driving electrode ETD3. The backlight unit BLU disposed on the back surface of the second substrate SUB2 includes a plurality of light sources that emit light to emit white light to the second substrate SUB2.

The white light emitted from the backlight unit BLU to the second substrate SUB2 is transmitted through the liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD and applied to the liquid crystal layer LC. Then, this white light is birefringent in the liquid crystal layer LC, is changed to a desired gradation, and is incident on the color filter array CF ARY. The red color filter (RCF) transmits only the red light among the white light incident on the red color filter (RCF), and absorbs light of different colors. The green color filter (GCF) transmits only green light among the white light incident on the green color filter (GCF) and absorbs light of a different color. Further, the blue color filter BCF transmits only blue light among the white light incident on the blue color filter BCF, and absorbs light of other colors.

Each of the color filters of the color filter array CF ARY selectively transmits only one of red light, green light, and blue light and absorbs the remainder. Therefore, in the conventional liquid crystal display device, only one third of the light generated in the backlight unit (BLU) is inevitably used, and accordingly, the light efficiency is reduced. In order to compensate for the decrease in luminance due to the lowering of the light efficiency, it is possible to consider using a high-luminance light source or increasing a driving power of a light source. In this case, however, power consumption of the liquid crystal display device is increased.

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a liquid crystal display device capable of improving light efficiency through light recycling by changing the structure of electrodes for driving liquid crystal.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Like reference numerals throughout the specification denote substantially identical components. In the following description, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein will be omitted when it may make the subject matter of the present invention rather unclear.

The liquid crystal display device according to the present invention includes two substrates SUB1 and SUB2 facing each other as shown in Fig. 2, a liquid crystal layer LC formed therebetween, and a backlight unit BLU for generating white light.

The first substrate SUB1 includes a first color (hereinafter referred to as a red color filter), a second color (hereinafter, referred to as a green color filter) GCF and a third color (hereinafter referred to as a blue color filter) A color filter array CF ARY and a black matrix BM for preventing optical interference between neighboring color filters are formed.

The second substrate SUB2 is provided with a TFT array (TFT ARY) including pixel driving signal lines and TFTs formed at intersecting regions of the signal lines and liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD) is formed. The pixel driving signal lines include data lines to which the pixel driving data voltage is applied and gate lines to which the pixel selecting scanning pulse is applied.

Each of the first liquid crystal driving electrode ETD1, the second liquid crystal driving electrode ETD2 and the third liquid crystal driving electrode ETD3 includes at least two metal films and at least one And a metal-organic laminate including at least two organic films. The present invention changes the structure of the liquid crystal driving electrodes (ETD) so that a part of the white light incident on the liquid crystal driving electrodes (ETD) can be reflected toward the backlight unit (BLU), thereby achieving light recycling Thereby improving the light efficiency. As will be described later, the light reflected from the liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD toward the backlight unit BLU is the light that has been absorbed in the color filter array CF ARY in the related art.

The backlight unit BLU includes a plurality of light sources for irradiating light on the back surface of the second substrate SUB2. The backlight unit (BLU) may be implemented as either a direct type or an edge type. The direct-type backlight unit (BLU) has a structure in which a plurality of optical sheets and a diffusion plate are stacked on the rear surface of a second substrate (SUB2), and a plurality of light sources are disposed under the diffusion plate. The edge type backlight unit BLU has a structure in which a plurality of optical sheets and a light guide plate are stacked on the back surface of the second substrate SUB2 and a plurality of light sources are arranged on one side of the light guide plate. The light sources may be implemented by point light sources such as a light emitting diode (LED), but are not limited thereto.

Meanwhile, the present invention can be applied to both the vertical electric field driving method and the horizontal electric field driving method.

In a vertical electric field driving method such as a TN (Twisted Nematic) mode and a VA (Vertical Alignment) mode, the liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD may be implemented as a pixel electrode to which a pixel driving data voltage is applied as shown in FIG. That is, the first liquid crystal driving electrode ETD1, the second liquid crystal driving electrode ETD2, and the third liquid crystal driving electrode ETD3 may be implemented as pixel electrodes, respectively. In this case, the common electrode to which the pixel driving common voltage is applied may be formed on the first substrate SUB1 so as to face the pixel electrode vertically with the liquid crystal layer LC therebetween.

In the horizontal electric field driving method such as the IPS (In Plane Switching) mode and the FFS (Fringe Field Switching) mode, the liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD are driven by the pixel electrodes to which the pixel driving data voltage is applied, And a common electrode to which a common voltage is applied. That is, the first liquid crystal driving electrode ETD1, the second liquid crystal driving electrode ETD2, and the third liquid crystal driving electrode ETD3 may be implemented as a pixel electrode and a common electrode, respectively. The pixel electrode and the common electrode may be formed on the second substrate SUB2 such that the pixel electrode and the common electrode are horizontally opposed to each other with the liquid crystal layer LC interposed therebetween.

FIGS. 4 and 5 are views showing the optical recycling operation of the present invention. FIG. 6A shows a wavelength vs. reflection curve of three-color light consisting of red, green, and blue. 6B shows the wavelength versus transmission curve of the three-color light.

6A and 6B show the wavelength vs. reflection characteristic and the wavelength vs. transmission characteristic of the three-color light composed of red (R), green (G) and blue (B). The maximum reflection wavelength of red (R), green (G) and blue (B) increases in the order of blue (B) <green (G) <red (R) (B) <green (G) <red (R), the maximum transmission wavelength of green (G), blue (B)

In light of the optical characteristics of the three-color light, the present invention enables optical recycling by appropriately designing the liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD.

The metal-organic laminate constituting the first liquid crystal driving electrode ETD1 is a red (R), green (G), and blue (B) mixed white light incident from the backlight unit BLU R) light, green (G) light and blue (B) light are reflected by the backlight unit BLU. The transmitted red (R) light passes through the liquid crystal layer LC, is birefringent, is transmitted through the red color filter (RCF), and is displayed as an image of the corresponding pixel. The green (G) light and the blue (B) light reflected by the backlight unit (BLU) are recycled in the backlight unit (BLU), thereby contributing to enhancement of light efficiency.

The metal-organic laminate constituting the second liquid crystal driving electrode ETD2 is a green-light-emitting layer that emits white light of white light composed of a mixture of red (R), green (G) and blue (B) (R) light and blue (B) light to the backlight unit (BLU) instead of transmitting the red (G) light. The transmitted green (G) light is birefringent while passing through the liquid crystal layer LC, and then transmitted through a green color filter (GCF) to be displayed as an image of the corresponding pixel. The red (R) light and the blue (B) light reflected by the backlight unit (BLU) are recycled in the backlight unit (BLU), thereby contributing to enhancement of light efficiency.

The metal-organic laminate constituting the third liquid crystal driving electrode ETD3 is a white-colored light which is a mixture of red (R), green (G) and blue (B) B) light is reflected by the backlight unit BLU instead of transmitting the red (R) light and the green (G) light. The blue (B) light transmitted through the liquid crystal layer LC passes through the blue color filter BCF after being birefringent, and is displayed as an image of the corresponding pixel. The red (R) light and the green (G) light reflected by the backlight unit (BLU) are recycled in the backlight unit (BLU), thereby contributing to enhancement of light efficiency.

Fig. 7 shows a stacked example of electrodes for driving liquid crystal (ETD) for implementing optical recycling. 8 shows another laminated example of the liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD for implementing optical recycling.

The thickness of the organic film is related to the maximum transmission wavelength of red (R) light, green (G) light and blue (B) light, respectively. As the thickness of the organic film increases, the maximum transmission wavelength of each of the three color lights shifts in the direction of increasing. On the other hand, as the thickness of the organic layer increases, peak points related to the maximum transmission wavelength in the wavelength vs. transmission curve as shown in FIG. 6B may occur in each of the three color lights.

The thickness of the organic film is the thickest in the first liquid crystal driving electrode ETD1 in consideration of the optical characteristics of the three-color light, the thickest in the second liquid crystal driving electrode ETD2, and the third liquid crystal driving electrode ETD3 It is preferable to form the thinnest layer. However, if the thickness of the organic layer is selected to be 5000 ANGSTROM or more, many peak points are generated within the visible light region, thereby reducing the optical recycling effect of the present invention. Therefore, when the thickness of the organic layer is less than 5000 ANGSTROM, You have to choose.

Referring to FIG. 7, the metal-organic laminate of the liquid crystal driving electrodes ETD may be formed of a triple-layered film composed of two metal films stacked with one organic film interposed therebetween.
