Definitions
- the present invention relates to an image display device, and more particularly, to an image display device that displays an image based on an input video signal, and is particularly suitable for displaying a moving image on a liquid crystal display device. It can be applied to Background art
- FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a conventional liquid crystal display device.
- the conventional liquid crystal display device includes a controller 910 and a source driver. And an IPS-type liquid crystal panel 913.
- the control interface 910 mainly controls the timing of the source driver 911 and the gate driver 912 and the control of the drive of the IPS LCD panel 913. Has a role
- a liquid crystal material is sealed between two electrodes of each pixel, and the voltage applied between these electrodes is changed to change the arrangement of liquid crystal molecules, thereby changing the optical characteristics.
- the image is displayed by changing.
- a TN (Twisted Nematic) type liquid crystal panel when a direct current is applied as a drive voltage, the ions in the liquid crystal material move around the electrodes and the displayed image remains, causing a phenomenon called burn-in. To Therefore The liquid crystal panel is driven by an alternating current.
- the liquid crystal panel is driven by an alternating waveform of alternating polarity in synchronization with the vertical synchronizing signal of the video signal.
- FIG. 32 is a diagram showing a driving voltage waveform when a still image test pattern of gray gray is displayed in the horizontal direction in the conventional AC driving method.
- the horizontal axis indicates the spatial axis, that is, the position of the pixel in the horizontal direction. Since the AC drive is used, the polarity of the drive waveform is inverted every frame, that is, between the odd frame and the even frame. As shown in Fig. 32, the polarity of the drive waveform changes alternately between adjacent horizontal pixels, which is called dot inversion or column inversion. This is one of the methods commonly used to reduce the frit force generated during AC driving.
- Fig. 33 is a diagram showing the configuration of the IPS-type liquid crystal panel
- Fig. 33 (a) is a diagram viewed from a direction perpendicular to the display surface
- Fig. 33 (b) Shows a cross-sectional view.
- two electrodes for driving the liquid crystal that is, a common electrode 921, and a pixel transistor 923 are connected to each other.
- a drain electrode 922 connected to the source wire 922 is formed in a comb shape on the surface of the same glass substrate 922 so as to bite each other.
- the IPS liquid crystal panel switches the liquid crystal in the liquid crystal layer 927 by the horizontal electric field generated between the electrodes, and therefore has the advantage of achieving an extremely wide viewing angle characteristic.
- the liquid crystal panel is currently mainly used as a still image display panel such as a personal computer monitor. With the improvement of the IPS liquid crystal panel and its peripheral technology, it will be possible to use it for displaying moving images such as IPS type liquid crystal panel television signals.
- the electrode structure of the IPS type liquid crystal panel will first be described in comparison with a general TN type liquid crystal panel.
- a transparent electrode (IT0) formed in a planar shape is provided on each of the glass substrates facing each other, so that an insulating film on ITO is used in a manufacturing process.
- the planar IT layer becomes a stopper, there is no danger of up-changing and the etching can be performed.
- the pixel electrodes (A 1 or Cr, etc.) configured in a comb shape that is, the common electrode 92 1 and the common electrode 92 1 Drain electrode 9 2 2 are provided on the same glass substrate surface so as to bite each other.
- the common electrode 921 when removing the insulating film on the pixel electrode, that is, the gate insulating film 925 and the protective insulating film 926 in the manufacturing process, the common electrode 921 must be removed. These electrodes serve as the stoppers for the part of the drain electrode 922, but stop for the part between the common electrode 921 and the drain electrode 922. Since there is nothing to do, there is a risk of over-etching unless accurate control of the etching speed is performed. Therefore, in an IPS liquid crystal panel, the insulating film on the pixel electrode is generally not removed, that is, the pixel electrode is covered with the insulating film. And this is one of the causes of the striped tail mentioned above.
- FIG. 34 shows the drive when the white-gray-white test pattern is moved to the right by two pixels per frame in a conventional liquid crystal display device using an IPS-type liquid crystal panel.
- FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a voltage waveform.
- the horizontal axis represents the position of the pixel in the horizontal direction (spatial axis)
- the vertical axis represents the drive voltage
- the vertical direction Indicates the order of the frames (dissociation time ').
- the polarity of the drive voltage waveform is inverted every frame, and the column inversion is performed. Therefore, the polarity of the drive voltage waveform is inverted for each horizontal pixel.
- FIG. 34 when the change of the driving voltage is expressed in the time axis direction by focusing on the pixel A shown in the figure, the figure shown in FIG. 35 (a) is obtained.
- the thick line in Fig. 35 (a) The balance of the DC component (low frequency component) of the voltage applied to the electrodes breaks down when the test pan passes too much. In other words, when passing the test pattern, a DC voltage is applied to the electrodes of the IPS-type liquid crystal panel.
- (1) is a model diagram for explaining the state of polarization when a (+) DC voltage is applied to the drain electrode 922; FIG.
- Fig. 36 when a DC voltage is applied to the IPS-type liquid crystal panel, ions in the liquid move and the polarization of the liquid crystal layer due to the uneven distribution of the ions causes the electrodes to move. Overlapping polarization of the insulating film occurs. As a result of this polarization, an electric field component is generated that cancels out the electric field applied to the liquid crystal layer. Then, the electric field component generated in this way affects the electric field applied to the liquid crystal until the polarization is relaxed.
- FIG. 35 (b) is a diagram showing an electric field applied to the liquid crystal of the pixel A of interest.
- the electric field component that cancels out the DC component due to the polarization caused by the addition of the DC component to the electrode voltage is displayed in a pattern. It affects the electric field applied to the liquid crystal during and after the period.
- the respective frames after passing through the no-turn were originally compared with the liquid crystal of pixel A as shown in Fig. 35 ( As shown in Fig. 35 (b), the absolute value should have been applied as shown in Fig. 35 (b). Apply a voltage that increases and decreases alternately every time.
- the positive / negative balance of the AC drive is broken, and the luminance flickers.
- the polarity alternates in synchronization with the vertical synchronizing signal, so that the blinking of the luminance has half the frequency component of the vertical synchronizing signal.
- the flickering of the brightness increases in proportion to the magnitude of the DC component and the time during which the DC component is applied. For example, if a positive frame is displayed in white, a negative frame is displayed in black, and then displayed in order for 2 seconds and then displayed in gray, a flicker of luminance that can be perceived by the naked eye occurs.
- a flicker of luminance that can be perceived by the naked eye occurs.
- the above-mentioned blinking of the brightness is of a level that cannot be perceived by the naked eye when the gaze is fixed, it may be perceived by moving the gaze. This can be explained by the fact that the human eye is a sensory organ that is sensitive to changes in space, time, and each.
- a test box consisting of a white BOX 9 15
- you move inside the box to the left your eyes will follow this movement. Since the movement of the test pattern and the flickering of the luminance are synchronized, the gaze has a direction in the spatiotemporal direction as shown by the arrow in FIG.
- one of the causes of the echo tailing 917 is the uneven distribution of the ions (the polarization of the liquid crystal) due to the application of the DC voltage. ) Will occur.
- This polarization is caused by the movement of impurity ions in the liquid crystal panel by receiving an electric field.Therefore, this polarization increases as the impurity ion concentration in the liquid crystal panel increases. To increase.
- liquid crystal materials of the IPS type have been developed in the direction of lowering the viscosity in order to increase the response speed.
- development has been made in the direction of increasing ⁇ (anisotropic dielectric constant).
- liquid crystal materials of the IPS type include CN-based liquid crystals and liquid crystal materials having a large ⁇ (electrical conductivity) are generally used, but such CN-based liquid crystal materials are used.
- impurity ions are easily incorporated into the liquid crystal, and as a result, the polarization is easily caused as described above, and the electric charge remaining at the interface is increased. Will increase.
