Description

200527055 IX. Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display and a panel thereof. [Prior art] Liquid crystal display (LCD) is one of the most widely used flat panel displays. The LCD includes two panels having a field generating electrode such as a pixel electrode and a common electrode, and a liquid crystal (LC) layer interposed therebetween. The LCD displays an image by applying a voltage to a field generating electrode to generate an electric field in the LC layer. The electric field determines the orientation of LC molecules in the LC layer to adjust the polarization of incident light. Among LCDs, because of the high contrast ratio and wide reference viewing angle, the alignment of LC molecules makes the long axis of LC molecules orthogonal to the panel in the absence of an electric field. The vertical alignment (VA) mode LCD is more prominent. This angle of view is defined as an angle of view with a contrast ratio equal to 1:10 or a critical angle for brightness conversion between gray scales. The wide viewing angle of the VA mode LCD can be achieved by a cut in the field generating electrode and a protrusion on the field generating electrode. Because the cutouts and the protrusions can determine the tilt direction of the LC molecules, the reference angle can be widened by using the cutouts and the protrusions to distribute the tilting direction to several directions. However, LCDs with cutouts or protrusions may have longer response times. This is because the oblique direction of the liquid crystal molecules that are away from the notches and protrusions is determined by the pushing of the liquid crystal molecules on the field-generating electrode or the collision of the liquid crystal molecules with the field-generating electrode, and therefore the alignment of the liquid crystal molecules is unstable and irregular. Although the response time can be improved by separating the cuts tightly, this can lead to a reduction in the aperture ratio. 98089. doc 200527055 [Summary of the Invention] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems of the conventional technology.

Preferably, the LC layer 3 has negative dielectric anisotropy and undergoes vertical alignment, that is, the LC molecules 310 in the LC layer 3 are aligned so that their long axes are substantially perpendicular to the panel 1 in the absence of an electric field. 〇 and 2000。 The surface. As shown in FIG. 3, the set of cuts 91_92b and 71-72b divides the pixel electrode 190 into a plurality of sub-regions, each of which has two main edges. The cutouts 91-92b and 71-72b and the inclined members 33 1-332b control the inclination direction of the LC molecules in the LC layer 3. This will be described in detail. Once a common voltage is applied to the common electrode 270 and a data voltage is applied to the pixel electrode 19, an electrical% is generated which is substantially orthogonal to the surface of the panel 100 and 2000. The LC molecule 3 10 tends to change its orientation to respond to the electric field so that its long axis is orthogonal to the direction of the electric field. The slits 91-92b and 71_72b of electrodes 190 and 270 and the edges of pixel electrode 19 are distorted by the electric field to have a horizontal component substantially orthogonal to the edges of slits 91_9 and 71-72b and the edge of pixel electrode 190. Therefore, the LC molecules on each sub-region are tilted in one direction by the horizontal component, and the azimuth of the tilt direction is divided into four directions, thereby increasing the viewing angle of the LCD. Similarly, in the absence of an electric field, the LC molecule 310 is pre-tilted by the tilting member 33, M, and the pre-tilt direction of the LC molecule 31 is determined by the tilt direction of the molecule 310 after the electric field is applied. The incisions 91_92] 3 and 71_721? Have the same tilt direction. In addition, the inclined member 33 le332b with a varying thickness twists the equipotential line of the electric field, and the distortion of the equipotential line generates a tilting force, which is also equivalent to 98089. doc -23- 200527055 When the dielectric constant of the inclined member 33 1-332b is lower than the dielectric constant of the LC layer 3, the inclination directions determined by the notches 91-92b and 7 l-72b are the same. Therefore, the tilt direction of the LC molecules 310 away from the chamfered edges of the cutouts 91-92b and 71-72b and the pixel electrode 19 is also determined to reduce the response time of the Lc molecule 3 10. At least one of the cutouts 91-92b and 71-72b may be replaced by a protrusion (not shown) or a depression (not shown). The protrusions are preferably made of an organic or inorganic material and are disposed above or below the field generating electrode 190 or 270. The shape and arrangement of the cuts 91_92b and 71-72b can be modified. g Because the tilt direction of all crystal domains is at an angle of about 45 degrees with the gate line 121 parallel or orthogonal to the edges of the panels 100 and 200, and the tilt direction intersects with the 45 degrees of the transmission axis of the polarizers 12 and 22 The polarizers 12 and 22 can be attached so that the transmission axes of the polarizers 12 and 22 are parallel or orthogonal to the edges of the panels 100 and 200, and the production cost can be reduced. For having 1. 9. ,1. 8. , And 1. 1. The tilting member of the roll angle is used to measure the response time Ttot of the liquid crystal, which is illustrated in the table shown in FIG. 5. The response time Ttot of the liquid crystal includes a loading room and a φ falling time Tf. The rise time Tr is the time that the LC molecules respond to the maximum voltage Vw generated by applying the maximum voltage Vw to the pixel electrode in the absence of an electric field = the time of the electric field 'and the fall time Tf_ has experienced the maximum after the minimum voltage Vb is applied to the pixel electrode Electric 埸 τ Γ in all directions L ·. The time at which the molecule returns to its original state. "Cell gap" indicates the thickness of layer 3 in the table shown in Fig. 5 by lc, that is, the distance between the panels 100 and 2000. 98089. doc -24- 200527055 As shown in Figure 5, the measured response time is equal to i3. 95 ms, 88 88 ms, and 15 34 ms. These times are less than 16 ms, and the response time of a conventional LCD without a tilting member is 21_25 ms. In addition, the rise time T r and the response time τ t 〇 t decrease as the roll angle of the inclined member increases. Because for a moving image, it is necessary to display an image of 60 frames within one second, so the measured response time is less than 16 ms to enable dynamic image.

The photoresist pattern used in the photolithography process has a thickness depending on the position, and in particular, it has first and second portions having a reduced thickness. The first portions are positioned on the area of the electric wire to be occupied by the data line 17, the drain electrode 75, and the metal piece i 72, and the second portions are positioned on the channel area of the TFT. The thickness of the photoresist material is determined by several techniques, for example, providing translucent areas on the exposure mask, as well as transparent areas and light blocking opaque areas. The translucent area may have a slit pattern, a lattice pattern, a thin film having an intermediate transmittance or an intermediate thickness. When a slit pattern is used, the width of the slits or the distance between the slits is preferably smaller than the resolution of an exposure device for photolithography. Another example is the use of fusible photoresist materials. In detail, once a standard exposure mask having only transparent and opaque areas is used to form a photoresist pattern made of a soft-soluble material, it is subjected to a soft process to flow onto areas without photoresist, thereby Formation of thin sections. As a result, the manufacturing process is simplified by omitting the photolithography step. 98089. doc -27- 200527055 Many of the above features of the LCD shown in FIGS. 1-4 can be adapted to the TFT array panel shown in FIGS. 6 and 7.

Each of the inclined members 341 has a ridge disposed on and extending along the data line 171, and an inclined surface whose height decreases from the ridge to the major edges. Since the inclined member 341 is located in the center of the data line 71 and the light blocking member 22o, it is possible to reduce the reduction in the light transmittance that can be generated by the inclined member 341. In addition, the inclined member 341 reduces the electric field generated by the data line 171 and can distort the orientation of the lc molecule 0 to generate a light spot. Therefore, the alignment range between the data line 171 and the pixel electrode 190 can be increased. After removal ', a vertical alignment layer may be formed on the inclined member 341. The common electrode panel 200 will be described below with reference to FIGS. 17-19.

A plurality of color filters 230 are formed on the substrate 210 and the light blocking member 22 'and are disposed substantially in an open area defined by the light blocking member 22o. The color filters 230 arranged adjacent to the two data lines 171 and arranged in the longitudinal direction may be connected to each other to form stripes. Each color filter 23 may represent one of three primary colors such as red, green, and blue colors. An outer coating layer 25, which is preferably made of an organic material, is formed on the color filter 230 and the light blocking member 22o. The overcoat layer 25 protects the color filter 23 and has a flat top surface. A common electrode 270, preferably made of a transparent conductive material such as ITO and IZ0, is formed on the overcoat 250. The common electrode 270 is supplied with a common voltage and the common electrode 270 has a plurality of herringbone-shaped cutouts 79. Each cutout 79 includes a pair of inclined portions connected to each other, a lateral portion connected to one of the inclined portions, and a longitudinal portion connected to the other of the inclined portions. The inclined portion of the cutout 79 extends substantially parallel to the inclined portion of the data line 171 and faces the pixel electrode 19o, so that it can bisect the pixel electrode 19o into a left half and a right half. The horizontal and vertical portions of the cutout 79 are aligned with the branch and vertical edges of the pixel electrode 190, respectively, and they form an obtuse angle with the inclined portion of the cutout 79. The slits 79 are provided to control the tilt direction of the LC molecules 310 in the LC layer 3 and the slits 79 preferably have a width ranging between about 9-12 microns. 98089. doc -40- 200527055 The cutout 79 may be replaced by a protrusion formed on or under the common electrode 27, preferably made of an organic material, and preferably having a width ranging from about 5 to 10 microns.

The LC layer 3 has negative dielectric anisotropy and is aligned ^ (:: molecule 3 10 in layer 3 makes its long axis perpendicular to the surface of the panel in the absence of an electric field. Therefore, incident light cannot pass through the intersecting Polarization systems 2 and 22. Once a common voltage is applied to the common electrode 270 and a pixel pressure is applied to the pixel electrode 190, a first electric field that is substantially orthogonal to the surface of the panel is generated. The LC molecules 3 1〇 tend to Respond to the electric field and change its orientation so that its long axis is orthogonal; the t direction is the same day t, the slit 79 of the common electrode 270 and the edge of the pixel electrode 190 distort the first electric field to have a tilt direction that determines the LC molecule 3 10 98089. doc -41-200527055 horizontal composition. The horizontal component of the first electric field is orthogonal to the edge of the cutout 79 and the edge of the pixel electrode 190. The horizontal component of the first electric field is antiparallel at the opposite edge of the cut. Therefore, four sub-regions having different oblique directions divided by the edge of the pixel electrode 190, the slit 79 of the halved pixel electrode 190, and the imaginary lateral center line of the intersection of the inclined portions of the common slit 79 are formed in the Lc layer 3.

If the planar area of the pixel area is less than about 100 > < 300 square microns, the number of sub-regions in the pixel region is preferably four, and if the planar area of the pixel region is not less than about 100x300 square microns, the number is preferably four or eight. The number of sub-regions may be changed by changing the number of cuts 79 of the common electrode 270, by providing cuts at the pixel private electrode 190, or by changing the number of bending points of the edges of the pixel electrode 19. The sub-regions are classified into a plurality (preferably four) domains based on the tilt direction. At the same time, the direction of the second electric field due to the voltage difference between the pixel electrodes 190 is exactly the edge of the cutout 79. Therefore, the field direction of the second electric field coincides with the field direction of the horizontal component of the electric%. Therefore, the second electric field between the pixel electrodes i enhances the determination of the tilt direction of the LC molecules 310. Because the LCD performs inversions such as dot inversion, line inversion, etc., adjacent pixel electrodes are supplied with data voltages having opposite polarities with respect to the common voltage, and therefore, the first pixel voltage between adjacent pixel electrodes 19o is almost always generated.
