Definitions
- the present invention relates to a liquid crystal display panel. More specifically, the present invention relates to a liquid crystal display panel including a substrate having electrodes on a plurality of layers with an insulating film interposed therebetween.
- a liquid crystal display panel is a device that controls light transmission / blocking (display on / off) by controlling the orientation of liquid crystal molecules having birefringence.
- the liquid crystal alignment mode of the liquid crystal display panel includes a TN (Twisted Nematic) mode in which liquid crystal molecules having positive dielectric anisotropy are aligned in a twisted state of 90 ° when viewed from the normal direction of the substrate, and a negative dielectric constant.
- VA Vertical alignment
- VA liquid crystal molecules having anisotropy are vertically aligned with respect to the substrate surface, and liquid crystal molecules having positive or negative dielectric anisotropy are horizontally aligned with respect to the substrate surface. Examples include an in-plane switching (IPS) mode in which a lateral electric field is applied to the layer and a fringe field switching (FFS) mode.
- IPS in-plane switching
- FFS fringe field switching
- an active matrix driving method is widely used in which an active element such as a thin film transistor (TFT: Thin Film Transistor) is arranged for each pixel to realize high image quality.
- TFT thin film transistor
- a substrate including a TFT hereinafter also referred to as a TFT substrate
- a plurality of gate signal lines and a plurality of source signal lines are formed so as to intersect each other, and a TFT is provided at each of these intersections.
- the TFT is connected to the pixel electrode, and the supply of an image signal to the pixel electrode is controlled by the switching function of the TFT.
- a common electrode is further provided on the TFT substrate or the counter substrate, and a voltage is applied to the liquid crystal layer through the pair of electrodes.
- the FFS mode is a liquid crystal alignment mode in which the aperture ratio is improved by improving the IPS mode (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
- a common electrode made of a transparent material such as indium tin oxide (ITO) is provided as an electrode facing the pixel electrode.
- Common wiring for supplying a common signal is connected to the common electrode.
- the pixel electrode is also made of a transparent material such as ITO, and a plurality of stripe-shaped slits are formed therein.
- An insulating film is disposed between the pixel electrode and the common electrode.
- the burn-in phenomenon is likely to occur as compared with the IPS mode.
- the path of electric lines of force from the pixel electrode to the liquid crystal layer and the liquid crystal layer The path of the electric lines of force leading to the gate signal line is asymmetric, and it is pointed out that it is irreversibly influenced by a DC electric field caused by a signal applied to the gate signal line.
- the shield electrode extended in the same direction as the gate signal line is used to generate a high voltage signal applied to the gate signal line. The electric lines of force from the pixel electrode toward the gate signal line are blocked. Furthermore, since the potential of the shield electrode layer becomes unstable when the shield electrode is in a floating state, the shield electrode and the common wiring are connected to stabilize the potential of the shield electrode in order to prevent this.
- the inventors of the present invention have been developing an FFS mode liquid crystal display panel, and have noticed that a purple-colored display unevenness occurs at a part of the outer edge of the display area when displaying.
- display unevenness occurs at each position corresponding to the gate block, in order to clarify the cause, not only the gate lead-out wiring but also the floating island region where the gate lead-out wiring is not formed
- the gate voltage (Vgl) was applied, the range of display unevenness changed.

For this reason, the inventors of the present invention have an influence not only on the liquid crystal molecules outside the display area but also on the liquid crystal molecules in the display area when the voltage applied to the gate lead-out wiring 112 located in the non-display area. I thought it was.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above situation, and an object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal display panel that can prevent display unevenness from occurring at the outer edge of the display area in the FFS mode.

Since the pixel electrode has a plurality of slits and the common electrode has a flat plate shape, a fringe electric field can be formed in the liquid crystal layer through these electrodes. That is, the liquid crystal display panel is one form of the FFS mode.

Electrode, (iii) an electrode located on the same level as the common lead-out wiring, and the like.
