Description

一种液晶显示面板及其像素电极
本申请要求于 2011年 6月 13日提交中国专利局、申请号为 201110157455.0, 发明名称为 "一种液晶显示面板及其像素电极" 的中国专利申请的优先权, 其 全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。 技术领域
本发明涉及一种液晶显示技术领域, 尤其涉及一种液晶显示面板及一种像 素电极。 背景技术
液晶显示器已经逐渐成为各种电子设备如移动电话、 个人数字助理 (PDA)、 数字相机、 计算机屏幕或笔记本计算机屏幕所广泛应用的显示器件。 液晶显示 器包括背光模块以及液晶显示面板, 液晶显示面板是由两基板以及填充于两基 板之间的液晶层所构成。 液晶显示面板的制造工艺多种多样, 目前常见的是垂 直配向(Vertical Alignment, VA)的液晶显示面板。
在 VA的液晶显示面板中, 会在像素结构的像素电极中形成配向夹缝, 以使 液晶分子产生特定的配向方向。图 1是现有技术中 VA模式液晶显示面板的一结 构示意图。 如图 1所示, 液晶显示面板的单位像素电极结构 1具有数据线 DL、 扫描线 SL、薄膜晶体管 114以及像素电极(未图示)。像素电极位于像素区域内, 为一 "米" (snow-flake like)字型的图案 (layout), 像素电极包含中央垂直的主干 ( main trunk ) 111 , 中央水平的主干 112、 以及与 x轴夹角为 ± 45度, ± 135度 的分支电极 113三部分组成。其中垂直主干 111和水平主干 112将一像素的面积 平均分成 4个区域( domain ), 每个区域都由斜向 45度的分支电极 113平铺组 成。 如此, 便形成了上下和左右分别镜像对称的 "米" 字型的电极设计。 其中, 分支电极 113的部分分支电性连接至薄膜晶体管 114, 以将来自数据线 DL的电 压经由薄膜晶体管 114传递至像素电极上。
进一步, 图 2是如图 1所示的像素电极上施加电压后的液晶倒向示意图。 参阅图 2, 当米字型的像素电极在通电的情况下, 液晶 120的倒向由像素电极的 外侧开始逐渐向内侧倾倒, 且其倾倒的角度是沿分支电极的延伸方向, 4个区域 的液晶倾倒方向分别为 ± 45度, ± 135度, 都指向像素的中央区域。 详细来说, 如图 2所示, 四个区域中液晶倒向与 X轴 (扫描线)的夹角为: 第一象限 -135度, 第二象限 -45度, 第三象限 45度, 第四象限 135度。
图 1 的液晶倾倒的角度是由外侧向内侧倾倒, 其方向指向像素的内部。 在 这种像素电极的设计结构中,像素电极中间的垂直主干 111与水平主干 112是属 于不透光区域, 这就使得可得知主干区域 111、 112的穿透率为零。 因此这样的 设计, 会降低液晶显示面板的开口率。
为解决图 1开口率的问题, 出现了图 3所示的像素电极的设计结构, 图 3 是现有技术中 VA模式液晶显示面板的另一结构示意图,如图 3所示, 液晶显示 面板单位像素电极结构 400具有数据线 DL、 扫描线 SL、 薄膜晶体管 414以及 像素电极(未图示)。 像素电极依然位于像素区域内, 但其图案与前述像素电极 的图案有所不同。 本设计中像素电极包含正方形的框体 411、 以及位于框体内部 的分支电极 413 , 而多个分支电极 413的中央, 具有一开口 412, 开口 412大致 将像素的面积平均分成 4个区域, 每个区域都由斜向 45度的分支电极 413平铺 组成, 进一步, 图 4是如图 3所示的像素电极上施加电压后的液晶倒向示意图, 参阅图 4, 当像素电极在通电的情况下, 液晶 420的倒向是由像素电极的内侧逐 渐向外侧倾倒, 且其倾倒的角度亦沿分支电极的延伸方向, 其四个区域的液晶 倾倒方向分别为 ±45度, ±135度, 其方向皆由像素的中央区域指向像素区域的 四个角落。 由此可之, 在像素电极接收电压的情况下, 液晶分子会由内向外倾 倒而不会因此挤压中间区域, 所以, 电路设计者可以将中央开口 412 的区域减 到最低, 如此一来, 非开口区的面积可以大幅下降, 进而得到更高的开口率。
但是, 进一步图 5是如图 3所示的像素电极的显示区域中呈现显示图案, 参考图 5可知, 采用图 3的像素电极的结构虽然能够解决开口率的问题, 但是 由图 5 中像素电极区域中呈现的图案可知, 在像素电极所形成的四个区域中存 在不透光区域,表明在不透光区域中液晶倒向与 X轴的夹角可能为 0度或 90度, 由此, 造成整个像素电极呈现的图案产生黑纹(disclination line )现象, 降低了 面板的穿透率。 发明内容
本发明提供一种像素电极以及包括所述像素电极的液晶显示面板, 可以有 效的解决现有技术中液晶显示面板穿透率下降的技术问题。
为了解决上述技术问题, 本发明提供的液晶显示面板的像素电极, 包括: 一框体, 电连接于液晶显示面板的开关单元的一端; 多个分支电极, 与所述框 体相连, 每一分支电极以固定的夹角自所述框体向所述框体内部延伸; 相邻的 分支电极之间是以切口依序间隔排列; 所述多个分支电极的尾部在所述框体内 部形成镜像对称结构的开口; 在所述框体的下方设置有一可覆盖所述框体的转 向层。

本发明针对现有的液晶显示器的像素电极结构中局部区域仍存在的穿透率 低, 显示效果不理想的缺陷, 提供了一种新型的像素电极以及包含所述像素电 极的液晶显示面板, 以有效的克服该缺陷。
图 6是本发明提供的液晶显示面板的一实施例结构示意图。 如图 6所示, 为本发明提供的液晶显示面板的一剖面示意图。 需要说明的是, 本发明实施例 提供的液晶显示面板以垂直配向 (VA )液晶显示面板为例进行说明, 具体实现 中, 本发明的像素电极结构也可被引用到其他具有类似功能的显示面板或其他 设备中。
具体的, 如图 6所示, 本发明实施例的液晶显示面板单位像素电极结构 700 包括数据线 DL、 扫描线 SL、 开关单元 714以及像素电极(未图示)。 其中, 开 关单元 714具体可为一薄膜晶体管或是其它具有类似开关功能的单元。 进一步, 本实施例的像素电极包含框体 711、 位于框体 711内部的多个分支电极 713 , 位 于框体 711下部可覆盖所述框体的转向层 716,所述多个分支电极 713为条形结 构, 所述条形结构与所述框体相连, 并以 45度的夹角 (具体实现中并不限于 45 度夹角, 也可为其他任意夹角 ) 自所述框体 711 向所述框体 711 的内部延伸, 相邻的分支电极 713之间是以切口依序间隔排列, 所述多个分支电极 713的尾 部在所述框体内部形成镜像对称结构的开口 712,开口 712大致将像素的面积平 均分成 4个区域, 每个区域都由斜向 45度的分支电极 713平铺组成。
框体 711电连接至开关单元 714的一端,而开关单元 714则电连接至扫描线 SL, 因此, 由扫描线 SL传递的电压, 便可通过开关单元 714与框体 711传递至 像素电极上。 的夹角分别对应 ±45度以及 ±135度, 于本发明的较佳实施例, 分支电极 713的 方向皆指向像素区域的中央, 换言之, 如图 6 所示, 第一象限的分支电极 713 与扫描线 SL的夹角为 -135度, 第一象限的分支电极 713与扫描线 SL的夹角为 -135度, 第二象限的分支电极 713与扫描线 SL的夹角为 -45度, 第三象限的分 支电极 713与扫描线 SL的夹角为 45度, 第四象限的分支电极 713与扫描线 SL 的夹角为 135度, 具体实现中, 各分支电极与扫描线 SL之间的夹角可由电路设 计者设计为其它的角度, 如此的相对应变化, 亦属本发明的范畴。
图 7是图 6 中的液晶显示面板去掉像素电极之后的结构示意图。 参考图 7 所示, 其为将图 6中的像素电极去掉后的结构示意图。 如图 7所示, 本发明的 转向层 716位于数据线 DL和扫描线 SL所形成的矩形框内部, 其形状与像素电 极的框体形状相同, 其厚度及边缘需要满足当液晶显示面板的上下基板产生电 位差时, 该转向层 716对于水平面呈小于 90度角的斜面上的电极(具体可为透 明导电玻璃 ITO,所述转向层的边缘为斜面相对于水平面的夹角优先为 20-70度) 能产生电力线方向向内的电力线, 所述电力线可对像素电极中不透光区域的液 晶分子的转向进行调整 ,使不透光区域中的液晶分子与扫描线 SL所在的 X轴所 成夹角不会呈现 0度或 90度的状态, 进而将不透光区域转换为透光区域。 具体 实现中, 转向层 716可为金属或者其他材料。
图 8是本发明的液晶显示面板的部分结构的截面示意图。 如图 8所示, 本 发明的液晶显示面板从上至下依次为像素电极层 91 (透明导电玻璃 ITO层)、绝 缘钝化层 92, 转向层 93以及玻璃基板 94。 由图 9可知, 当液晶显示面板通电 后, 当其上下基板产生电位差时, 该转向层 716对于水平面呈小于 90度角的斜 面 931上的电极(具体可为透明导电玻璃 ITO,所述转向层的边缘为斜面相对于 水平面的夹角优先为 20-70度)能产生电力线方向向内的电力线, 所述电力线可 对像素电极中不透光区域的液晶分子的转向进行调整, 使不透光区域中的液晶 分子与扫描线 SL所在的 X轴所成夹角不会呈现 0度或 90度的状态, 进而将不 透光区域转换为透光区域。 进而解决了现有的液晶显示面板产生黑纹的缺陷。 图 9是如图 6所示的像素电极的显示区域中呈现显示图案, 参考图 9可知, 本 发明产生的显示图案没有黑纹现象。
另外, 需要说明的是, 在本发明实施例中, 框体 711和转向层 716均为一 矩形架构, 但于实际应用中, 它们亦可具有其它的形状, 例如圓形、 正六边形、 正八边形等等。 而开口 712也不限定于本实施例的 "十" 字型, 也可以是,,一,, 字型或是,,米" (snow-flake like)字型,或是其它可以将分支电极 713分成上下或左 右分别镜像对称的开口都属于本发明的范畴。 另外, 所述多个分支电极 713 之 间的切口大小不完全相同, 且所述多个分支电极 713的宽度不完全相同。
本发明实施例提供的液晶显示面板和像素电极通过在像素电极的框体的下 方设置转向部来改变液晶分子的转向,使得原来与 X轴呈 0度和 90度的不透光 区域转变为透光区域。 因此, 本发明实施例避免了液晶显示面板产生黑纹的缺 陷, 增强了液晶显示面板的穿透性。
综上所述, 虽然本发明已以较佳实施例揭露如上, 但该较佳实施例并非用 以限制本发明, 该领域的普通技术人员, 在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内, 均 可作各种更动与润饰, 因此本发明的保护范围以权利要求界定的范围为准。
以上所述是本发明的优选实施方式, 应当指出, 对于本技术领域的普通技 术人员来说, 在不脱离本发明原理的前提下, 还可以做出若干改进和润饰, 这 些改进和润饰也视为本发明的保护范围。
