图1示出了一种基于空间混色的加色混合原理而实现的彩色图像显示装置。如图1所示,这种显示方式通常需要利用彩色滤光片(Colour Filter,CF)10对白光100进行过滤以得到对应R、G、B三色光的子像素20。为了能够提高光能的使用效率,基于时间混色的加色混合原理的场序列液晶显示器受到了广泛的研究与应用。如图2所示,所述场序列液晶显示器的具体实现方式是采用R、G、B三色背光源在时间轴上进行混色,即以人眼时间分辨率不可察觉的速度将R、G、B三色影像在时间轴上快速切换,从而通过时间混色来显示出彩色图像。但是,相比于传统的空间混色技术,时间混色技术若要达到同样的帧频则需将R、G、B三个子帧的帧频均提高3倍,其中每个子帧都包含液晶响应时间和光源点亮时间,而如此高的频率对于液晶响应以及驱动电路的设计都是十分严峻的挑战。
基于此,本示例实施方式提供了一种像素单元,应用于场序列液晶显示装置。如图3所示,所述像素单元30可以包括依次相邻设置的多个子像素300,该多个子像素300用于根据时间顺序轮换显示不同的颜色,例如可轮换工作以透过背光模组发出的光,从而实现像素图像的显示。其中,所述背光模组用于根据时间顺序在一帧周期内 按序发出不同颜色的光,例如可以根据时间顺序依次发出红光、绿光和蓝光。由此可知,任一子像素300在一子帧时间内仅透过单一颜色的光,所有子像素300在一帧时间内可轮换透过不同颜色的光。
需要说明的是:所述背光模组发出的光应当至少包括红光R、绿光G和蓝光B,且根据需要还可以进一步包括其它颜色的光例如黄光Y或者白光W。
本公开示例性实施方式所提供的像素单元30中包括多个子像素300结构,通过控制该多个子像素300配合背光源依次按序点亮,即可使该多个子像素300轮换透过背光模组发出的光,从而在保证场序列彩色显示的基础上能够有效的降低单个子像素300的显示频率。此外,由于该像素单元30的结构简单,且与现有的像素结构及其制备工艺具有良好的匹配性,因此实施难度较低。
基于上述的像素单元30可知,每个像素单元30中可以包括多个子像素300,例如一像素单元30中可以设置两到三个子像素300。但考虑到较多的子像素300数量会对像素密度(Pixels Per Inch,PPI)产生一定的影响,而两个子像素300交替工作已经能够达到降低单个子像素300的显示频率的效果,因此本示例实施方式优选在每个像素单元30中设置两个子像素300即第一子像素和第二子像素,以使该两个子像素300能够交替透过背光模组发出的光,从而实现像素图像的显示。
例如,在一帧时间内,第一子像素可以被配置为显示红色、绿色和蓝色中的任意两种颜色,第二子像素可以被配置为显示红色、绿色和蓝色中除所述第一子像素显示的两种颜色之外的第三种颜色,并且在下一帧时间内,第一子像素可以被配置为显示所述第三种颜色,第二子像素可以被配置为显示所述任意两种颜色。因此,通过交替地利用第一子像素和第二子像素显示不同的颜色,从而实现像素图像的显示。
本示例实施方式中,如图4所示,所述像素单元30可以包括相对设置的第一基板301和第二基板302,以及位于第一基板301和第二基板302之间的液晶层303。其中,所述第一基板301例如可以包 括薄膜晶体管304,与薄膜晶体管304电连接的像素电极,以及靠近液晶层303设置的第一取向层;所述第二基板302例如可以包括与薄膜晶体管304对应设置的黑矩阵305,以及靠近液晶层303设置的第二取向层。
需要说明的是:这里所述的黑矩阵305与薄膜晶体管304对应设置是指,黑矩阵305在第一基板301上的正投影可以完全覆盖薄膜晶体管304在第一基板301上的正投影。
应当注意的是,本示例实施方式中的第二基板302上无需设置彩色滤光片。由于本实施例所提供的像素单元30是基于场序列显示原理进行工作的,那么背光模组便会根据时间顺序依次发出不同颜色的光例如按序发出红光、绿光和蓝光。也就是说,背光模组所发的光本身就是彩色光,因此无需额外设置彩色滤光片也能实现彩色显示。从而避免了由于彩色滤光片吸收光而造成的光源损失,从而提高了背光的利用率。此外,传统LCD通常使用R、G、B三个子像素进行混色,每个像素单元即像素点需由三个子像素进行表示,而本实施例中的一个像素单元即像素点可以仅通过两个子像素进行表示,因此在同等尺寸和像素分辨率的情况下,单个子像素的面积可增大1.5倍,从而能够显著的增加光线的透过率以及像素的开口率,以提高光能的使用效率。
下面以LCD常用的60Hz帧频为例,结合图4所示的双子像素300结构对所述像素单元30的工作原理进行示例性的说明。其中,背光源采用RGB三色光源,图中的箭头分别代表背光模组发出的红光R、绿光G和蓝光B,则这三个子帧(红色子帧、绿色子帧和蓝色子帧)的显示频率分别为180Hz,即每个子帧约占5.56ms。当采用图4所示的双子像素300结构交替显示各子帧时,每个子像素300的显示频率分别为90Hz。
图5示出了像素单元30的工作时序图。由于目前的场序列显示方法是在子帧的数据写入以及液晶分子响应完成后才会打开对应子帧的背光光源,因此每个子像素300的显示操作可以分为液晶响应阶段和背光显示阶段两个部分。而在本示例实施方式中,所述像素单元 30的工作过程包括液晶响应时间和背光显示时间,所述液晶层在所述液晶响应时间内在关闭状态和开启状态之间切换,并且所述液晶层在所述背光显示时间保持开启状态。更具体地,所述像素单元30的工作过程如下:
在第一个红色子帧的显示过程中,第一子像素例如图4左边的子像素300经过一液晶响应时间后打开,此时背光模组输出红光R,第二子像素例如图4右边的子像素300保持关闭,这一阶段该像素单元30显示为红色子帧;
在第二个绿色子帧的显示过程中,背光模组在液晶响应阶段便输出绿光G,第一子像素经过一液晶响应时间后关闭,第二子像素经过该液晶响应时间后打开,这一阶段像素单元30显示为绿色子帧;
在第三个蓝色子帧的显示过程中,背光模组在液晶响应阶段便输出蓝光B,第二子像素经过一液晶响应时间后关闭,第一子像素经过该液晶响应时间后打开,这一阶段像素单元30显示为蓝色子帧;
随后的各色子帧时序同上,这里不再赘述。
液晶响应通常需要包括开启和关闭两个过程,本实施例采用双子像素结构,在第一子像素关闭的过程中控制第二子像素同时响应开启,假如液晶的开启和关闭的响应曲线是对称的,则像素单元的实际透过率(即各子像素的透过率之和)不会发生改变。基于此,在本实施例中,控制所述背光在一个子帧时间内的液晶响应时间和背光显示时间均发射相同颜色的光。因此,由于背光模组能够在液晶响应阶段便进行光的输出,因此能够消除液晶开启和关闭的等待时间,在保证亮度的前提下减小显示时间,以实现场序列高显示频率的需求。
需要说明的是:本实施例中,由于第一个红色子帧是显示开始阶段,其它两个子帧均未开启,因此无法对液晶的响应过程进行补偿,需要待液晶响应完成后点亮背光;而对于后续的各个子帧,前后两个子帧是可以相互补偿的,因此可以在液晶响应阶段便打开背光。
更具体地说,如图5所示,在第一个绿色子帧中,在液晶的响应阶段即点亮背光使背光发出绿色光。此时,第二子像素的液晶响应过程为开启阶段,同时,第一子像素正在经历液晶响应关闭的过程, 因此,一部分绿光通过第一子像素出射,从而补偿第二子像素在液晶响应开启阶段的亮度。即,如图5所示,第一子像素的亮度逐渐下降,第二子像素的亮度逐渐上升,此时像素单元的总量度保持为期望的亮度。
在此基础上,若显示内容要求红色子帧与绿色子帧的亮度相同,而液晶的实际开启时间少于实际关闭时间,则在液晶响应过程中像素单元的透过率便会向上波动,此时可以在液晶响应过程中适当减小绿色背光的亮度或者增大绿色背光的上升时间来实现对亮度波动的补偿。因此,在液晶响应时间不对称的情况下,能够通过调节背光来补偿像素单元的亮度波动。
这样一来,通过在一人眼不可分辨的时间内将红光R、绿光G和蓝光B进行快速混色,便可以实现彩色图像的显示。由于本实施例采用双子像素300结构交替显示各色子帧,因此能够明显的降低每个子像素300的显示频率,从而减小了场序列液晶显示器的实现难度。
本示例实施方式还提供了一种显示面板,包括上述的像素单元30。该显示面板中,每个像素单元30均可以包括多个子像素300例如双子像素300,该多个子像素300可用于轮换作用以透过背光模组发出的光,从而在保证场序列彩色显示的基础上能够有效的降低单个子像素300的显示频率。
本示例实施方式还提供了一种显示装置,包括上述的显示面板以及背光模组;其中,所述背光模组用于根据时间顺序在一帧周期内按序发出不同颜色的光。
需要说明的是:所述背光模组发出的光应当至少包括红光R、绿光G和蓝光B,且根据需要还可以进一步包括其它颜色的光例如黄光Y或者白光W。
本公开示例性实施方式所提供的显示装置可在保证场序列彩色显示的基础上有效的降低单个子像素的显示频率,其例如可以包括手机、平板电脑、电视机、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件。
本示例实施方式中,所述背光模组可以包括光源例如LED(Light Emitting Diode,发光二极管)灯条以及驱动电路,这里采用LED灯条作为背光源具有节约能耗的优点。
具体而言,所述光源例如LED灯条应当至少包括红光光源例如红光LED灯条、绿光光源例如绿光LED灯条、以及蓝光光源例如蓝光LED灯条;所述驱动电路可用于获取控制信号并根据控制信号驱动红光光源、绿光光源和蓝光光源在一帧周期内依次进行发光。
在一实施例中,所述LED灯条例如可以分三路进行驱动,即红光LED灯条由第一路驱动电路进行驱动、绿光LED灯条由第二路驱动电路进行驱动、蓝光LED灯条由第三路驱动电路进行驱动。在此情况下,当任一路驱动电路驱动对应的LED灯条进行发光例如第一路驱动电路驱动红光LED灯条进行发光时,整个背光模组的所有红光LED灯条均会点亮。
在另一实施例中,所述LED灯条不仅可以分路驱动,还可以进一步分块驱动,即一组LED灯条(包括红光LED灯条、绿光LED灯条和蓝光LED灯条)可以对应一个或多个像素单元30。在此情况下,在进行背光点亮时可以根据该一个或多个像素单元30对应的区域驱动该区域的各个LED灯条依次进行发光。
进一步的,考虑到每个子像素300的驱动时间均会包括液晶响应时间和背光显示时间,而液晶响应时间中的上升时间一般会少于下降时间,这就导致在一子帧尚未完全关闭时另一子帧已经完全开启,从而造成在不同子像素300进行切换时会产生亮度的波动。
基于此,所述显示装置还可以进一步包括一亮度补偿模块,该亮度补偿模块可根据在液晶响应时间内检测到的像素单元30的透过率动态调节背光模组的发光亮度。
具体而言,在液晶的响应过程中,像素单元30的显示亮度可以表示为:L=(T 1+T 2)×BL;其中,BL为背光源的发光亮度,T 1和T 2分别为第一子像素和第二子像素的透过率。在本实施例中,由于液晶响应时间中的上升时间一般少于下降时间,因此通过实际测试液晶透过率曲线,并根据该透过率曲线对背光亮度进行动态补偿,这样便可 以降低不同子像素300切换时的亮度波动,从而保证像素亮度的稳定性。
本示例实施方式还提供了一种像素单元的驱动方法,用于驱动上述的像素单元。该驱动方法可以包括:控制像素单元中依次相邻的多个子像素根据时间顺序轮换显示不同的颜色。
具体而言,如图6所示,所述驱动方法可以包括:

S2、驱动像素单元30中的各个子像素300轮换透过背光模组发出的各个颜色的光。

本示例实施方式中,所述背光模组发出的光应当至少包括红光R、绿光G和蓝光B。在此情况下,所述控制背光模组根据时间顺序在一帧周期内按序发出不同颜色的光具体可以包括:控制背光模组根据时间顺序在一帧周期内依次发出红光R、绿光G和蓝光B。
本示例实施方式中,所述像素单元30可以为双子像素结构例如仅包括第一子像素和第二子像素。在此情况下,所述驱动像素单元30中的各个子像素300轮换透过背光模组发出的各个颜色的光具体可以包括:驱动第一子像素和第二子像素交替透过背光模组发出的各个颜色的光。
考虑到每个子像素300的驱动时间均会包括液晶响应时间和背光显示时间,而液晶响应时间中的上升时间一般会少于下降时间,因此本示例实施方式所提供的驱动方法还可以进一步包括:
S3、根据在液晶响应时间内检测到的像素单元30的透过率动态调节背光模组的光源亮度,以降低不同子像素300切换时的亮度波 动。
其中,所述背光模组例如可以在第二子像素的液晶响应时间发光,以补偿第一子像素的亮度。
需要说明的是:所述驱动方法的具体细节已经在对应的像素单元30中进行了详细的描述,这里不再赘述。
