Definitions
- the present invention relates to a display device, and more particularly, to a reflective display device receiving light radiated from an external light source and reflecting the received light using an internal reflector for displaying images to a user.
- LCD liquid crystal display
- the transmissive LCD device includes a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel formed of two glass plates with liquid crystal interposed therebetween, and a back light unit for providing light to the LCD panel. Due to the back light unit, the transmissive LCD devices have a problem of excessive power consumption. Also, it is difficult to make the transmissive LCD devices thinner and lighter because of the thickness and the volume of the backlight unit. Due to the drawbacks of the transmissive LCD devices, the reflective LCD devices without the backlight unit have been widely used.
- LCD liquid crystal display
- FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a reflective LCD device having a front light unit according to the related art.
- the reflective LCD device includes a reflective liquid crystal panel 10 and a front light unit 20 disposed on the reflective liquid crystal panel 10 for providing light to the liquid crystal panel 10.
- a diffusing reflective electrode 11 is formed at the bottom of the reflective liquid crystal panel 10 for reflecting an ambient light and a supplementary light to the display side of the liquid crystal panel 10.
- the front light unit 20 includes a light source 30 for emitting light, a light guide plate
- a reflective mirror 50 for reflecting the light from the light source 30 to the light guide plate 40
- an antireflective coating 60 for preventing the light from being leaked from the light guide plate 40.
- the light guide plate 40 has an upper surface formed in a prism pattern, thereby changing the propagation path of light that enters with a predetermined angle inclined to be vertical from the display surface. Then, the light guide plate 40 guides the light to propagate to the reflective liquid crystal panel 10 in a vertical direction from the reflective liquid crystal panel 10. Then, the reflective liquid crystal panel 10 reflects the light to the upper surface of the light guide plate 40, thereby providing the information to a user's eyes.
- the conventional reflective liquid crystal display device has a problem of deteriorating an image quality due to the front light unit 20 disposed on the entire area of the reflective liquid crystal panel 10.
- the optical interference between the prism pattern of the light guide plate 40 and the liquid crystal panel 10 generates Moire.
- the reflected light from the uppermost surface of the light guide plate 40 lowers the contrast ratio, and the transmittance ratio of the light guide plate 40 degrades the brightness.
- the conventional reflective LCD device has a limitation to reduce the overall thickness thereof due to the thickness of the light guide plate 40. Disclosure of Invention Technical Problem

Therefore, the reflective display device according to the present invention provides superior image quality even when the ambient light is weak or dark.
- the reflective display device includes the light source integrally formed at the bottom surface of the upper substrate. Therefore, the overall thickness of the reflective display device becomes thinner, and the assembly process of the reflective display device becomes easier.

- a light source electrode 400 is disposed between every two adjacent color pixels in the color filter 900.
- the light source electrode 400 is a black matrix in order to emit light only in a direction to the lower substrate 100 not to emit the light in a direction to the upper substrate 200 when the light source 500 emits light.
- the light source 400 can be formed as a block matrix by depositing chrome
- the light source electrodes 400 having the black matrix characteristics are disposed between every two adjacent color pixels of the color filter 900 in the present embodiment, the light passes only through the opening end of each color pixel of the color filter 900. Also, the light source electrodes 400 having the black matrix characteristics prevent the light from being transmitted to a space between the color pixels, or a region not allowed controlling the color, such as regions of a switching element and a wire. Therefore, the contrast ratio becomes improved.
- the light sources 500 are an element emitting light using a driving voltage applied to the light source electrode 400.
- the light sources 500 are coupled to the bottom of the light source electrodes 400 and radiate the light in a direction to the lower substrate 100 when a driving voltage is supplied to the light source electrodes 400.

- a passivation layer 800 is formed between the lower substrate 100 and the pixel electrode 300, and between the upper substrate 200 and the light source electrodes 400 in order to prevent humidity or oxygen from being penetrated, thereby extending the life time of the light source 500.
- the passivation layer 800 is formed of one selected from the group consisting of a high polymer such as acryl and polyimide, and ceramic such as silicon oxide (SiO 2 ) and silicon nitride (SiN).
- the common electrode 600 is a transparent electrode disposed at the bottom of the color filter 800 and receives the driving voltage.
- the common electrode 600 is connected to the light source electrodes 400 and receives the driving voltage of elements on the upper substrate 300 and the driving voltage from the light source 500 at the same time.
- the plurality of microcapsules 700 are a capsule disposed between the common electrode 600 and the pixel electrode 300.
- Each of the microcapsules 700 includes a transparent dielectric fluid 710, white particles 720 each having a positive charge, and black particles 730 each having a negative charge. [51] As shown in Fig.

- the black particles 730 move to the pixel electrode 300 and the white particles 720 move to the common electrode 600.
- the microcapsules 700 reflect the light emitted from the light source 500 and the reflected light is displayed in black color at the outside. If the particles moving to the common electrode 600 are the white particles 720, the microcapsules 700 reflect the light emitted from the light source t00 and the reflected light is displayed in white color at the outside. [55] And, the light reflected from the white particles 720 of the microcapsule 700 can be transformed in various colors by the color filter 900 and displayed in various colors at the outside.

- the common electrode 600 is applied as the positive electrode, the black particles 730 having the negative charge move to the common electrode 600, and the light radiated from the light source 500 is reflected by the black particle 730 and displayed in the black color at the outside.
