下面以图1中所示的第n个像素14c为例进行说明。
第n个像素14c包括第一像素区141、第二像素区142、第三像素区143。第n个像素14c的第一像素区141设置在第n-1条扫描线Sn-1 、第n条扫描线Sn、第n条数据线Dn 以及第n+1条数据线Dn+1 所围成的区域内。第n个像素14c的第二像素区142设置在第n条扫描线Sn 、第n+1条扫描线Sn+1 、第n条数据线Dn 以及第n+1条数据线Dn+1 所围成的区域内。第n个像素14c的第三像素区143设置在第n+1条扫描线Sn+1 、第n+2条扫描线Sn+2 、第n条数据线Dn 以及第n+1条数据线Dn+1 所围成的区域内。
第一像素区141包括第一像素电极21和第一控制开关T1,第一像素电极21通过第一控制开关T1连接数据信号。在本实施例中,第一控制开关T1优选为第一薄膜晶体管T1,第一像素电极21连接第一薄膜晶体管T1的漏极,第一薄膜晶体管T1的源极连接数据信号,第一薄膜晶体管T1的栅极为其控制端且连接第一扫描信号,第n条数据线Dn 用于提供第n个像素14c的数据信号,即第一薄膜晶体管T1的源极连接第n条数据线Dn 。第n条扫描线Sn 用于提供第n个像素14c的第一扫描信号,即第一薄膜晶体管T1的栅极连接第n条扫描线Sn
第二像素区142包括第二像素电极22和第二控制开关T2,第二像素电极22通过第二控制开关T2连接数据信号。在本实施例中,第二控制开关T2优选为第二薄膜晶体管T2。第二像素电极22连接第二薄膜晶体管T2的漏极,第二薄膜晶体管T2的源极连接数据信号,第二薄膜晶体管T2的栅极为其控制端且连接第一扫描信号。第n条数据线Dn 用于提供第n个像素14c的数据信号,即第二薄膜晶体管T2的源极连接第n条数据线Dn 。第n条扫描线Sn 用于提供第n个像素14c的第一扫描信号,即第二薄膜晶体管T2的栅极连接第n条扫描线Sn
第三像素区143包括第三像素电极23和第三控制开关T3,第三像素电极23依次通过第三控制开关T3和第二控制开关T2连接数据信号,第三像素电极23还通过第三控制开关T3连接第二像素电极22。在本实施例中,第三控制开关T3优选为第三薄膜晶体管T3,第三像素电极T3连接第三薄膜晶体管T3的漏极,第三薄膜晶体管T3的源极连接第二薄膜晶体管T2的漏极,第三薄膜晶体管T3的栅极为其控制端且连接第二扫描信号,第n+1条扫描线Sn+1 提供第n个像素14c的第二扫描信号,即第三薄膜晶体管T3的栅极连接第n+1条扫描线Sn+1
值得注意的是,在本实施例中,第n个像素14c的第二扫描信号与第n+1个像素14d的第一扫描信号优选为同一信号,即第n+1条扫描线Sn+1 和第n+2条扫描线Sn+2 连接同一用于产生扫描信号的驱动IC的扫描线端,进而可以节约成本。在其他实施例中,第n个像素14c的第二扫描信号与第n+1个像素14d的第一扫描信号也可以不是同一信号,即第n+1条扫描线Sn+1 和第n+2条扫描线Sn+2 连接的也可以不是同一驱动IC。在其他实施例中,第n个像素14c的第二扫描信号和第n+1个像素14d的第一扫描信号也可以都是由第n+1条扫描线Sn+1 提供。
公共电极17连接第一公共电压VC1,存储电容电极15连接第二公共电压VC2。第三像素电极23和公共电极17之间以液晶层12为介质形成分压液晶电容CL。第一像素电极21和公共电极17之间以液晶层15为介质形成第一液晶电容CL1,第一像素电极21和存储电容电极15之间以绝缘层16为介质形成第一存储电容Cs1。第二像素电极22和公共电极17之间以液晶层12为介质形成第二液晶电容CL2,第二像素电极22和存储电容电极15之间以绝缘层16为介质形成第二存储电容Cs2。分压液晶电容CL用于在第一薄膜晶体管T1、第二薄膜晶体管T2、以及第三薄膜晶体管T3均导通时降低第二像素电极21的电位以使得第一像素电极21和第二像素电极22的电位不同。第一薄膜晶体管T1导通指其源极和漏极之间导通,同样第二薄膜晶体管T2和第三薄膜晶体管T3导通指源极和漏极之间导通。
下面结合附图和实施例说明本发明像素结构的工作原理。
如图2所示,同样以第n个像素14c为例进行说明。当第n条扫描线Dn上的第一扫描信号控制第一薄膜晶体管T1和第二薄膜晶体管T2导通且第n+1条扫描线Dn+1上的第二扫描信号控制第三薄膜晶体管T3截至时,第一像素电极21和第二像素电极22之间形成第一等电位V1(图2中V1处电位);随后,当第二扫描信号控制第三薄膜晶体管T3导通时,分压液晶电容CL上积累电荷,为第二像素电极22分担部分电压,使得第一像素电极21与第二像素电极22电位不同,达到传统低色偏像素结构设计的要求。
具体而言,在本实施例中,此时第二像素电极21和第三像素电极22之间形成第二等电位V2(图2中V2处电位)。由电容分压公式可以得到,第一等电位V1和第二等电位V2之间的关系为:
V2=V1(CL2 +Cs2)/( CL2 +Cs2 +2CL) (1)
由式(1)可知:V2<V1,即第一像素电极21电位与第二像素电极21电位不同,达到了传统低色偏像素结构设计的要求,即当第一像素电极21电位与第二像素电极22电位不同时,液晶显示面板在大视角观看时颜色失真会减小。本实施例未在阵列基板11上另外设置电容,因此也不会影响液晶显示面板的开口率。
请参阅图3,图3是本发明液晶显示面板的结构示意图。在本实施例中,液晶显示面板包括:像素结构10、第一偏光板18以及第二偏光板19。其中,像素结构10为上述任意一实施例所述的像素结构10。第一偏光板18设置在阵列基板11下方,第二偏光板19设置在彩膜基板13的上方。
请参阅图4,图4是本发明的液晶显示面板的驱动方法的流程示意图。
步骤S41:利用第一扫描信号控制第一控制开关和第二控制开关导通。
步骤S42:利用数据信号为第一像素区和第二像素区充电以使得第一像素电极与第二像素电极形成第一等电位V1。
步骤S43:利用第二扫描信号控制第三控制开关导通,使得第三像素电极与第二像素电极导通以让第二像素电极与第三像素电极形成不同于第一等电位V1的第二等电位V2。
区别于现有技术,本发明通过增加设置第三像素区,利用第三像素电极和公共电极之间形成的分压液晶电容将第二像素区的电位拉低,使得第一像素区的电位与第二子像素区的电位不同,从而能够在不降低开口率的情况下实现低色偏效果,能够避免大视角颜色失真。
以上所述仅为本发明的实施方式,并非因此限制本发明的专利范围,凡是利用本发明说明书及附图内容所作的等效结构或等效流程变换,或直接或间接运用在其他相关的技术领域,均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
