Description

Ultra high definition horizontal alignment type liquid crystal display

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an active drive type liquid crystal display device, and more particularly, to an ultra-high definition horizontal alignment liquid crystal display device suitable for a case in which the liquid crystal has an initial horizontal alignment state and the number of pixels per unit area is super concentrated.

According to the conventional liquid crystal alignment and switching driving according to voltage, the liquid crystal switching method is classified into twisted nematic (TN) method, in plane switching (IPS) method, vertical alignment (VA) method, and fringe field switching (FFS) method. Can be.

The pixel structure of the LCD also varies depending on the driving method In the pixels of the TN and VA LCDs, a pixel electrode is formed on one of a pair of substrates, a common electrode is formed on the other, and two substrates are formed between the pixel electrode and the common electrode. The transmittance of the pixel is controlled by forming an electric field perpendicular to the plane to control the orientation of the liquid crystal molecules.

In the FFS method, a pixel electrode and a common electrode are formed to face each other with an insulating layer therebetween in a lower substrate. In the FFS method, the common electrode is generally disposed below the plane, the pixel electrodes are formed in parallel with each other with slit patterns, and the array of liquid crystal molecules is formed by the electric field (fringe field) formed between the pixel electrode and the common electrode. Since the FFS mode LCD has a wide viewing angle and a transparent electrode, the LCD is characterized in that its transmittance is higher than that of IPS.

However, what may be the biggest limitation at present in the liquid crystal display device is related to a video or game display in which an image may change very quickly. Liquid crystal displays are being developed for various purposes, and in the case of a head mounted display (hereinafter referred to as 'HMD') for spherical virtual reality, a liquid crystal display is being developed as a display device along with an organic EL. Liquid crystal panels used as display elements of HMDs require a resolution of at least 4K, typically 8K, in order to feel realistic. In addition, in order to achieve high resolution of 1000 ppi or more in a display of 3 inches or less such as an HMD, the unit pixel pitch must be 8 micrometers or less.

Compared with other display devices such as CRTs and OLEDs, the liquid crystal display device has a disadvantage in that the response speed is slow due to the inherent viscosity and elasticity of the liquid crystal, as shown in Equations 1 and 2 below.

The response speed of LCD is that when the white light passes through the input polarizer, the liquid crystal cell, and the output polarizer in normal white light, the transmittance is between 10% and 90% when the screen is dark and bright. It is the sum of the changing time. The time taken when changing from 10% to 90% is called Rising Time, and the time taken when changing from 90% to 10% is called Falling Time. White to Black) Response rate or response time.

(Equation 1)

Where τ _r is the rising time when voltage is applied to the liquid crystal, Va is the applied voltage, and V _F is the Freederick Transition Voltage at which the liquid crystal molecules start reacting with the voltage. d denotes a cell gap of the liquid crystal cell, and gamma denotes a rotational viscosity of the liquid crystal molecules.

(Equation 2)

Here, τ _f denotes a falling time during which the liquid crystal is restored to its original position by the elastic restoring force after the voltage applied to the liquid crystal is turned off, and K denotes the elastic modulus inherent in the liquid crystal.

That is, in the liquid crystal display device, the response speed τ _f is greatly influenced by the rotational viscosity and elastic modulus, which are characteristics of the liquid crystal itself, and it is urgently required to solve such a response speed problem in order to be adopted as a display in the HMD.

As an example of a case where a fast response speed is required, the field sequential full color display method may also be mentioned. The field sequential full-color display method, which requires a color filter, is characterized by using a backlight which is sequentially lit from "red to green to blue". In a typical CRT or liquid crystal display, the frame time is 16.7 ms. In the field sequential full-color display method, the frame time is 5.6 ms and high-speed response is required.

As an index indicating fast response, the sum of τ _f and τ _r discussed above may be mentioned. τ _f is the falling response time of the liquid crystal and τ _r is the rising response time of the liquid crystal. In order to satisfy the fast response in the field sequential full color display system, it is desired that τ _f and τ _r are each less than 1.5 ms.

Even in normal color filter LCDs, it is known that the response time or response speed of the liquid crystal should be 4 ms or less in order to realize a high-precision screen of a high-speed game at a frame rate of about 120 Hz while minimizing afterimage effects. It was difficult to achieve 120Hz driving on such an ultra high resolution screen with a display device.

As can be seen from the fact that the liquid crystal of the liquid crystal display device has an elastic modulus, the liquid crystal exhibits the same behavior as the elastic body. In general, the larger the elastic modulus, the greater the response speed. It becomes important.

By the way, the elastic deformation of the liquid crystal is not made of one kind, it can be divided into splay type, twist type and band type elastic deformation. Among these, the band type elastic deformation has the largest value, so that the band type elastic deformation is used for driving the liquid crystal. By using the form of reconstruction and restoration, the response time of the liquid crystal can be reduced and the number of driving frames can be increased.

An object of the present invention is to improve or solve the problem of the high speed response of the above-mentioned active drive type liquid crystal display device, and to provide a liquid crystal display device capable of driving a 120 Hz high speed by reducing the response time in an ultra high resolution liquid crystal panel. It is done.

Preferably, the present invention is a fringe field switching method having a fast response time enabling a resolution of 1000 to 2000 ppi or more and a refresh rate of 120 Hz or more in a 3 inch display for application to an HMD having an ultra-high-speed, high-speed response property. An object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal display device.

The liquid crystal display device of the present invention for achieving the above object,

A lower substrate provided with a first polarizer, an upper substrate provided with a second polarizer, a liquid crystal positioned between the upper substrate and the lower substrate, a thin film transistor provided on the lower substrate, and a gate line connected to the gate electrode of the thin film transistor to drive the same A liquid crystal display device comprising: a data line connected to a source electrode and a pixel electrode connected to a drain electrode;

The liquid crystal adopts a positive liquid crystal having a positive dielectric anisotropy, the initial liquid crystal alignment is in a horizontal alignment state, and forms a through hole (slit pattern) with an insulating layer interposed over a flat pixel electrode in a lower substrate in each pixel region. The first common electrode is provided with a second common electrode operated at the same polarity as the common electrode on the upper substrate, and when a voltage is applied between the pixel electrode and the common electrodes, the liquid crystal array around the fringe is inclined with the initial horizontal alignment direction. It is characterized in that the conversion is made to pass through the light.

In the present invention, the horizontal alignment direction of the liquid crystal may be in a direction parallel to the data line and in the same direction as the length direction of the straight slit.

The present invention may be a liquid crystal display device used for an HMD having a pixel pitch of 8 micrometers or less, in which case, the first common electrode has one linear slit, a rectangular slit, or a circular slit as a through hole in the center of each pixel. Or oval slits.

From the same point of view, in the present invention, although the liquid crystal is horizontally arranged in an off state, an embodiment in which one pixel is divided into two quadrants or slit lines and patterns are operated in various forms in order to obtain a better viewing angle can be considered. .

In the present invention, the first common electrode and the second common electrode may be driven in conjunction with the same voltage.

According to the present invention, the response speed of the liquid crystal display device is increased, so that a high-speed driving rate of 120 Hz can be achieved even in an ultra-high resolution liquid crystal panel.

According to the present invention, it is possible to implement an HMD suitable for a game or a virtual reality screen by enabling ultra high definition high-speed response, and preferably to implement an HMD having a high resolution of 1000 ppi or more and a fast response time of 120 Hz or more. .

According to the present invention, the liquid crystals basically form a horizontal array, and even if there is a change in the liquid crystal array due to the change in the electric field of the fringe region, the liquid crystals are not arranged close to the vertical, so the problem of viewing angle or light leakage according to the viewing angle is not large. Therefore, the retardation plate (compensation film) for preventing light leakage used in the conventional liquid crystal display device can be omitted, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the liquid crystal display device.

In the present invention, when the voltage is applied to the pixel electrode, the change in the arrangement of the liquid crystal may form an elastic deformation associated with the band elasticity and the twist elasticity, and the response speed is as fast as the arrangement change related to the band elasticity contributes to the transmittance of the backlight light. You can have it.

According to the present invention, the width of the pixel electrode can be adjusted to adjust the amount of the storage capacitor Cst required, and a liquid crystal display device can be implemented without being greatly influenced by the size of the TFT when implementing a high resolution.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 and 2 show the configuration of a pixel portion of a liquid crystal display device employing a-Si TFT which is an embodiment of the present invention.

The gate electrode 121 and the gate line are formed on the lower substrate 111 by thin film stacking and patterning, the gate insulating layer 131 is formed thereon, the semiconductor layer 132 is formed again, and the data line 141. ), The source electrode 142 and the drain electrode 143 are formed through the conductive layer stacking process and the patterning process to form the pixel driving thin film transistors. In this case, the ohmic contacts 133 and 134 may be stacked on the semiconductor layer 132 so that the ohmic contacts 142 and the drain electrodes 143 overlap with each other so that an ohmic contact layer for conductive connection therebetween may be provided.

Of course, the specific configuration of the thin film transistor may be formed in various forms by other methods known in the art. For example, the thin film transistors of other structures such as a-Si TFT, LTPS TFT, and Oxide TFT can be replaced.

An interlayer insulating layer 151 having a via hole is formed in the drain region over the thin film transistor, and the pixel electrode 161 is formed thereon. In this case, the interlayer insulating layer 151 and the pixel electrode 161 are also formed through thin film stacking and patterning, and the pixel electrode 161 is formed in a flat plate shape in each pixel area and drains through the via 171 passing through the via hole. The electrode 143 is electrically connected to the electrode 143.

In the state where the insulating layer 181 is formed on the pixel electrode 161, the first common electrode 191 pattern having the slit 192 having a single shape is formed in the center of the pixel. The pixel electrode 161 and the first common electrode 191 are insulated by the insulating layer 181, and the electric field flux started from the pixel electrode passes upward through the slit 192 and then bends to form an upper surface of the first common electrode 191. Will enter.

Meanwhile, the color filter 231, the black matrix 221 layer, the overcoat layer 241, and the second common electrode 251 are sequentially formed on the lower surface of the upper substrate 211, so that the second common electrode 251 in the drawing is formed. It is formed at the bottom.

Although not shown, treatment for orientation may be performed on the lower substrate surface and the upper substrate surface in contact with the liquid crystal. As the method of orienting the liquid crystal horizontally, various methods known in the art may be used. Here, the alignment layer may be formed for the initial horizontal alignment of the liquid crystal, the material treatment for the horizontal alignment, and the like, and the rubbing for the alignment may not be performed separately. As the alignment layer, a film of polyimide material may be used. Here, when the alignment layer rubbing is performed, the liquid crystal alignment direction is in the same direction as the longitudinal direction of the slit pattern of the first common electrode, and the pretilt angel is 1 degree in relation to the liquid crystal alignment.

Most of the liquid crystal display substrate structure as described above may be made of the same material and method as conventionally known. However, a combination of the first common electrode 191 having the lowermost flat pixel electrode 161 and the slit 192 pattern formed thereon and the second flat common electrode 251 under the upper substrate and the first The combination of the arrangement of the liquid crystal 300 and the operation of applying a voltage of the same polarity or a voltage of the same polarity to the common electrode and the second common electrode form a characteristic configuration of the present invention.

Although not shown in FIG. 1, the first polarizing film on the outer surface of the lower substrate, the second polarizing film on the outer surface of the upper substrate, and the like may also be formed like a conventional liquid crystal display. Usually, a 1st polarizing film and a 2nd polarizing film are provided so that a polarization direction may mutually make a 90 degree angle.

In a conventional LCD, a compensation film or a phase difference plate is installed to compensate for light leakage or viewing angle characteristics in a dark state due to an angle difference between the viewing direction and the liquid crystal array when the screen is viewed from the side rather than the front side. Similarly, liquid crystal arrays are based on horizontal arrays, so there are few problems such as light leakage, so no separate compensation film is installed.

Looking at the formation process of the present embodiment with reference to the drawings, the pixel left and right width gate line 122 is formed first relative to the inner surface of the lower substrate 111, the branch vertically branched from the gate line integral gate The electrode 121 is formed. The gate line and the gate electrode 121 are integrally formed by stacking and patterning a conductor layer.

Although the gate insulating film 131, the thin film transistor semiconductor film 132, and the ohmic contact layers 133 and 134 are not separately shown in FIG. 1, the gate insulating film 131 is laminated on the entire substrate, and the semiconductor film 132 is formed. The ohmic contact layers 133 and 134 are formed by patterning only the transistor region including the channel region after the chuck layer.

Based on the data line 141 extending in the pixel length direction through the stacking and patterning of the conductive layer on the gate insulating layer 131, and the source electrode 142 and the gate electrode 121 branched in the width direction integrally from the data line. As a result, a drain electrode 143 positioned opposite to the source electrode 142 is formed. In this patterning operation, the ohmic contact layer is also etched so that it remains only at the portion where the source electrode, the drain electrode and the semiconductor film overlap. This results in a thin film transistor structure.

A passivation layer or an interlayer insulating layer 151 is stacked and patterned on the thin film transistor structure to form a via hole in which the drain electrode 143 is partially exposed. A transparent conductive film such as ITO is stacked and patterned thereon to form a pixel pattern 161 having a rectangular pattern in contact with the drain electrode 143 through a via 171.

The insulating layer and the conductive layer for the first common electrode are stacked on the pixel electrode 161, and the conductive layer is patterned to form a first common electrode 191 having a longitudinal 1-shaped slit 192 pattern in the central portion of the pixel.

Here, the slit 192 pattern of the first common electrode 191 is formed in a single shape at the center of the pixel, but may be formed in a different shape so that the electric field direction formed in each part of the slit fringe is a specific direction required for the function. For example, in the present invention, one pixel is divided into two quadrants to secure a viewing angle to form a slit pattern different from each other in the electric field direction, or the slits may be formed in a broken line pattern.

3 and 4 illustrate a liquid crystal array around a single slit of the first common electrode in another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a cross section perpendicular to the slit direction in an initial state and a lit state, respectively. FIG. 4 is a graph showing a change in light transmittance according to a change in distance x from the left end to the right end of each pixel in the fringe around the slit pattern of the first common electrode 191 in the state shown in FIG. 4. .

Here, while forming a display, a pixel pitch of 7 μm and a width of 5 μm and a slit width g of approximately 1 μm are formed, and a voltage is applied or blocked to the pixel electrode 161. While verifying the simulation results (performance). Here, the width of the pixel electrode is slightly reduced in width in the embodiments of FIGS. 1 and 2 as compared with the pixel electrode being formed almost over the entire width of the pixel. In some embodiments, the width of the pixel electrode may be further reduced. However, the pixel electrode width is equal to or larger than the size of the slit width g.

As the width of the pixel electrode is changed, the accumulation capacitance C _st between the pixel electrode and the common electrode is changed, and thus the adjustment of the width of the pixel electrode may be performed according to the required amount of storage capacitance.

The cell gap d between the upper substrate 210 and the lower substrate 110 is 4 μm, and a liquid crystal material is injected to fill the liquid crystal. Herein, a liquid crystal having a positive dielectric anisotropy, which has a property that the liquid crystal is arranged parallel to the electric field direction when an electric field is applied, is used.

More specifically, in the present embodiment, the liquid crystal 300 has an ideal refractive index (n _e ) 1.6041, a normal refractive index (n _o ) 1.4893, a parallel dielectric constant (ε _// ) 12.3, and a vertical dielectric constant (ε⊥) based on 20 ° C. A splay modulus (K ₁₁ ) of 16.9 pN, a twist modulus of elasticity (K ₂₂ ) of 8.42 pN, a band modulus of elasticity (K ₃₃ ) of 19.2 pN, and a rotational viscosity of γ (rotational viscosity) of 80 mPa · s were used.

However, the color filter, the black matrix layer, the overcoat layer, the data line and the gate line, the thin film transistor structure, and the like, as shown in FIG. 1, are not shown separately and are considered to be included in the upper substrate 210 or the lower substrate 110. .

The graph of FIG. 3 shows that the liquid crystal 300 does not apply voltage to the pixel electrode 161 in the liquid crystal display according to the exemplary embodiment of FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, so that the pixel electrode 161 and the first and second common electrodes ( 191 and 251 show the state which formed the horizontal arrangement as a whole at the initial stage when a potential difference is not applied between them. More specifically, in FIG. 4, the alignment direction of the liquid crystal molecules is a direction penetrating through the ground, and becomes a direction parallel to the length direction or the data line direction of the one-shaped slit of FIG. 1.

In the graph of FIG. 4, a voltage difference is applied to the pixel electrode 161 so that a potential difference is applied between the pixel electrode 161 and the first and second common electrodes 191 and 251 so that a slit (width) of the first common electrode 191 is increased. in the region around the fringe of the pattern, indicating that the liquid crystal is out of the horizontal arrangement and partially inclined with the horizontal plane as a result of the band-shaped elastic deformation.

In addition, the liquid crystal adjacent to the fringe on the left side of the slit is not only a band type elastic deformation but also a twist type elastic deformation, so that the liquid crystal is slightly distorted counterclockwise when viewed from above the display plane.

When the liquid crystal 300 is out of the original horizontal arrangement state and forms some inclination angle in the horizontal direction by the band-type elastic deformation while also forming the twisted elastic deformation, that is, the arrangement change having the band-shaped deformation component and the twisted deformation component. In this case, in the region around the slit pattern fringe of the pixel, the backlight light of the liquid crystal display device changes the polarization state while passing through the liquid crystal layer in the modified array of the first polarized light passing through the first polarizing plate. At least a portion of the light may pass through the second polarizing plate and be emitted to the outside, and the pixel may be turned on.

In the graph of FIG. 5, as shown in FIG. 4, the voltage applied to the pixel electrode under the condition that the pixel width is 7 μm, the pixel electrode width is 5 μm, the slit pattern width is 1 μm, and the slit pattern is located at the center of the pixel width direction is 6 volts, 8 volts, and 10 volts. The results of the experiment while changing to indicate the change in light transmittance.

According to this graph, increasing the applied voltage to the pixel electrode increases the light transmittance, but the overall shape of the light transmittance curve shows a similar shape, and the change in light transmittance is symmetrical as the distance from the slit center is distant in the cross section perpendicular to the slit pattern. It shows an aspect, and it can be seen that it has the maximum light transmittance in the slit fringe. This light transmittance is obtained because it has the maximum horizontal electric field in the slit fringe, and the liquid crystal array is deformed to the maximum inclined horizontally while being distorted in the horizontal plane (twisted deformation) to achieve the first direction and the maximum twist angle.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the change of the liquid crystal array is based on an initial horizontal arrangement state, and corresponds to a band-type strain and a twist-type strain among three elastic strains of the liquid crystal. In this case, the elastic modulus of the band-type elastic strain in the liquid crystal characteristics is larger than that of the twist-type or spray-type strain, so the rate of change and restoration for the band-type strain is faster than that of the twisted-type strain. The faster the change in the overall light transmittance, the faster the change and recovery speed than the change in the arrangement of most liquid crystals mainly using pure twist type deformation as the change caused by the band type deformation and the restoring component contribute.

6 is a comparative graph showing a change in transmittance with time while applying a constant voltage to the pixel electrode and blocking the voltage after a predetermined time in two cases of the conventional FFS type liquid crystal display as a comparative example with the liquid crystal display of FIG. 5. As a result, a difference in response speed obtained by applying a voltage corresponding to a lighting signal can be confirmed, and FIG. 8 shows a difference between a rise time and a fall time according to the graph of FIG.

In these graphs, the conventional FFS type liquid crystal display device, which is a comparative example of the liquid crystal display device of the present invention, is different from the pixel structure, and thus cannot be experimented under the same conditions, but it is not the same condition. It can be seen that the response speed can be driven much faster than that through the liquid crystal behavior.

In these graphs, the present embodiment is represented by UFS-VA, the comparative example is represented by FFS, and the comparative examples are divided according to the sizes of the slit width g and the pixel electrode width w. In the comparative examples, the FFS electrode structure has no second common electrode or counter electrode on the upper substrate, the liquid crystal alignment has a horizontal alignment, and the slit width formed on the pixel electrode or the common electrode is g, and is generally parallel to each other. The width (width) of the pixel electrode (where a pixel electrode is above and a slit is formed) on which the dog is provided is expressed as w. In this comparative example, even when the common electrode and the pixel electrode are disposed interchangeably (when the common electrode is on the top and the slit is formed on the common electrode), substantially the same result can be obtained.

When the graph of FIG. 7 is arranged in a table, it can be seen that the response speed obtained by applying a voltage to the pixel electrode is as follows.

LCD Display Type τ _r (rising time) τ _f (falling time) Invention (l = 1μm) 10.8 ms 4.5 ms Comparative Example 1 (w = 2μm, l = 3μm) 13.8 ms 21.7 ms Comparative Example 2 (w = 3μm, l = 4.5μm) 13.2 ms 21.2 ms

This difference in response speed is several times faster than the existing response speed. In general, the rise time can be significantly reduced by overvoltage driving, and thus the display device has the most important influence on the response speed when continuously changing images are displayed. The τ _f , which is a giving part, is about 50 times faster, and of course, the LCD having such a response speed can be used for displaying a fast video with a frame rate of 120 Hz or higher, virtual reality, and game screen display.
