Description

阵列基板、 液晶面板及显示设备 技术领域
本发明的实施例涉及一种阵列基板、 液晶面板及显示设备。 背景技术
在薄膜场效应晶体管液晶显示器( TFT-LCD )中,在像素电极(例如 ITO (氧化铟锡) 电极)和公共电极(例如 ITO电极)之间施加电压形成电场, 通过控制该电压大小从而控制液晶分子旋转的程度从而实现光阀。
根据正负电极排列方式不同, TFT-LCD按结构可以包括面内切换 ( In Plane Switching, IPS)型和高级超维场转换技术(Advanced Super Dimension Switch, ADSDS或 ADS )型两种。 在釆用 IPS型显示方式的液晶显示器中, 各电极之间的间距很小, 在施加电压时电极间产生面电场, 液晶只能在该部 位产生旋转以实现光阀, 从而令光穿透受到限制。 在釆用 ADS 型显示方式 的液晶显示器中, 通过同一平面内狭缝电极边缘所产生的电场以及狭缝电极 层与板状电极层间产生的电场形成多维电场, 使液晶盒内狭缝电极间、 电极 正上方所有取向液晶分子都能够产生旋转, 从而提高了液晶工作效率并增大 了透光效率。 高级超维场开关技术可以提高 TFT-LCD产品的画面品质, 具 有高分辨率、 高透过率、 低功耗、 宽视角、 高开口率、 低色差、 无挤压水波 故 ( ush Mura )等优点。
如图 1为传统的 ADS型显示器的结构的截面图。 该 ADS型显示器的结 构包括: 彩膜基板 C和阵列基板 A, 以及填充在所述彩膜基板 C和阵列基板 A之间的液晶层 5。 彩膜基板 C包括玻璃基板 2和彩膜层 6, 阵列基板 A包 括玻璃基板 71、 像素电极层 3、 公共电极层 4和绝缘层 72。 此外, 在所述彩 膜基板 C和阵列基板 A的外侧均贴附有偏振片 1。 像素电极层(板状电极)
3和公共电极层 (狭缝电极 ) 4的正负电极通过绝缘层 72分隔而重叠排列。 上述电极层在工作过程中于通电之后产生多维电场, 使电极间和电极上的液 晶分子均在面板的面内旋转。
图 2为用于说明在上述传统的 ADS型显示器的结构中, 像素电极层 3 中的像素电极(例如 ITO电极) 31和公共电极层 4的公共电极 (例如 ITO 电极) 41 的结构示意图。 由于在设计时考虑到开口率、 电容耦合效应等因 素, 像素电极 31的边缘与公共电极 41边缘之间有一定的距离, 这会产生像 素边缘透光不均勾现象, 造成液晶显示器的透光效果整体上不均匀。 发明内容

在每个子像素单元中, 像素电极例如为板状电极, 而公共电极包括形成 有多个例如彼此平行的狭缝的狭缝部分, 该狭缝部分例如是用于该子像素用 于显示的部分。
图 4为本发明实施例 1的阵列基板中像素电极层和公共电极层之间的结 构关系的示意图, 示出了沿图 3中 Α-Α线的剖视图; 图 5为图 4中虚线框部 分的放大图。
本发明实施例 1的阵列基板可以用于液晶面板, 该液晶面板包括阵列基 板、 对置基板和夹置在阵列基板和对置基板之间的液晶层, 阵列基板包括像 素电极层和公共电极层, 像素电极层和公共电极层分别位于不同的层上, 彼 此之间可以形成超维电场以驱动液晶层。 本发明实施例的液晶面板的结构总 体上与图 1所示的传统 ADS型液晶面板相似, 这里不再赘述。
如图 4和图 5所示, 在本发明实施例 1的阵列基板中, 公共电极层 20 与像素电极层 10平行, 且公共电极层 20位于像素电极层 10的上方。 与图 2 所示的传统结构相比较,本发明实施例 1的阵列基板对像素电极层 10上的像 素电极 11、 12和公共电极层 20上的公共电极 21、 22之间的相对结构进行了 改进,使各个公共电极在像素电极层 10上的垂直投影,分别与相应的像素电 极 11、 12重叠或部分重叠, 也即公共电极层的公共电极 21、 22的边缘在像 素电极层的投影线, 位于像素电极层的某一像素电极 11、 12上。
本发明实施例 1的阵列基板中,公共电极层 20上包括第一公共电极 21。 该第一公共电极 21的第一边缘沿垂直于该阵列基板的方向(垂直方向)在像 素电极层 10上的投影线, 位于一像素电极上, 第一公共电极 21的第二边缘 沿垂直方向在像素电极层 10上的投影线,位于另一像素电极上。如图 5所示, 第一公共电极 21的第二边缘与第一公共电极 21的第一边缘为相对的两边缘。
更具体地如图 4所示, 阵列基板上设置有栅线(未示出)和数据线 14, 像素电极层 10上包括第一像素电极 11和第二像素电极 12,分别位于数据线 14的相对两侧, 即分别位于一行中彼此相邻的两个子像素单元中(如图 3所 示)。 第一公共电极 21与数据线 14平行且相面对。 本实施例中, 第一公共电 极 21位于数据线 14的正上方,其中第一公共电极 21的第一边缘沿垂直方向 所投影至像素电极层 10上的投影线 I, 位于第一像素电极 11上; 第一公共 电极 21 的第二边缘在像素电极层 10上的投影线 II, 位于第二像素电极 12 上。
同时,如图 4,第一像素电极 11的第一边缘沿垂直方向在公共电极层 20 的投影线 III, 位于第一公共电极 21上; 第二像素电极 12的第一边缘沿垂直 方向在公共电极层 20的投影线 IV, 也位于第一公共电极 21上。 如图所示, 第一像素电极 11的第一边缘为邻近数据线 14的边缘,第二像素电极 12的第 一边缘也为邻近数据线的 14的边缘, 也即第一像素电极 11的第一边缘和第 二像素电极 12的第一边缘分别为两相邻的边缘。
本领域技术人员应该理解, 根据显示原理, 在通电之后第一像素电极 11 和第二像素电极 12分别与第一公共电极 21之间应该具有电势差。
此外, 如图 4和图 5所示, 公共电极层 20上还包括位于第一公共电极 21外侧的公共电极, 即如图 4和图 5所示的第二公共电极 22。 这里, 如图 3 所示, 第二公共电极 22是位于像素单元区域中形成狭缝电极的公共电极部 分;而第一公共电极 21则是用于连接横向相邻两个像素单元中的第二公共电 极 22的部分, 出现在数据线 14的上方并与之重叠。
如图 4, 第二公共电极 22的第一边缘沿垂直方向在像素电极层 10上的 投影线 V, 位于一像素电极 11上, 该第二公共电极 22的第二边缘在像素电 极层 10上的投影线(未示出), 也位于一像素电极上, 使得第二公共电极 22 在像素电极层 10上的垂直投影, 与其中一像素电极重叠。如图 4所示, 本实 施例中, 当第二公共电极 22为第一公共电极 21左侧的一公共电极时, 该其 中一像素电极为像素电极层 10中的第一像素电极 11。
以上参考图 3-5, 以公共电极层上设置三个公共电极, 像素电极层上设 置二个像素电极为例, 对本发明实施例 1的阵列基板中像素电极层与公共电 极层之间的结构进行了说明。 参阅图 4和图 5所示, 所述阵列基板中包括多 个公共电极,各个公共电极的两个相对边缘沿垂直方向在像素电极层的投影, 均位于相应的像素电极上, 沿垂直方向看形成相互重叠的结构。 同样, 阵列 基板中包括多个像素电极, 各个所述像素电极的两个相对边缘垂直方向在所 述公共电极层上的投影, 分别位于相应的公共电极上, 沿垂直方向看形成相 互重叠的结构。
通过上述设置方式, 由于沿着光入射方向(垂直于像素电极层 10和公共 电极层 20的方向), 像素电极与相邻的公共电极之间具有重叠, 公共电极与 相邻的像素电极之间也具有重叠, 因此可以避免产生图 2所示的像素电极周 边透光不均勾的现象, 能够达到更加均勾的透光效果。
相对于传统的阵列基板, 本发明实施例 1的阵列基板可以釆用增大像素 电极宽度的方法、 增大公共电极宽度的方法或者同时增大像素电极宽度和公 共电极宽度的方法, 来实现本发明实施例的技术方案。
图 4与图 5所示阵列基板, 以公共电极层位于像素电极层上方为例, 对 本发明实施例 1的结构进行了描述。当像素电极层位于公共电极层的上方时, 同样能够进行相似的结构设置, 在此不再详细描述。

实施例 2的液晶面板釆用了实施例 1的阵列基板。 当对置基板为彩膜基 板时,该彩膜基板例如包括作为基底基板的玻璃基板或塑料基板以及彩膜层。 彩膜层可以具有例如红色、 绿色和蓝色子像素单元, 与阵列基板的相应子像 素单元对应。 当对置基板非彩膜基板时, 例如在阵列基板之上还形成有彩膜 层, 并相应地包括例如红色、 绿色和蓝色子像素单元。
