摘要:
A lateral electric field type liquid crystal display device prevents the generation of the reverse rotation domain when the reverse-rotation domain preventing structure using the floating electrodes is adopted. A first liquid-crystal driving electrode (e.g., pixel electrode) and a second liquid-crystal driving electrode (e.g., common electrode) comprise comb-tooth-like parts extending approximately parallel to each other and being meshed with each other, respectively, in a region where images are displayed by applying a liquid-crystal driving electric field to liquid crystal. An electrically isolated first floating electrode is provided in the vicinity of the top end of the comb-tooth-like part of the first liquid-crystal driving electrode, where the first floating electrode comprises an overlapped part which is overlapped with the top end by way of an insulating film. The capacitance intervening between the first floating electrode and the first liquid-crystal driving electrode is greater than the capacitance intervening between the first floating electrode and the second liquid-crystal driving electrode.

An active matrix liquid crystal display panel by which a good display characteristic can be obtained without suffering from gradation reversal over a wide visibility angle range. A liquid crystal layer 4 is formed such that the thickness thereof varies in accordance with transmission wavelengths of color layers 6, 7 and 8 so that a very good display which does not exhibit any coloring in whichever direction it is viewed may be obtained.An active matrix substrate A includes a plurality of opposing electrodes 2, a plurality of pixel electrodes 3 parallel to the opposing electrodes 2, a thin film transistor, and an orientation film 23 all formed on a glass substrate 10. A color filter substrate C includes an orientation film 56 provided on one surface of another glass substrate 10 and an optical compensation layer 35 provided on the other surface of the glass substrate 10 and formed from a plastic film. The two substrates are disposed such that the orientation films thereof oppose each other, and polarization plates 34 and 5 are disposed on the outer sides of the two substrates, and a liquid crystal layer 4 having a positive refractive index anisotropy is provided between the orientation films 23. The optical compensation layer 35 has a negative one axial refractive index anisotropy and can cancel a retardation produced in the liquid crystal layer 4 thereby to suppress white floating of a black display portion.

A reflection liquid crystal display is such that a transparent substrate is opposed to the first substrate with a liquid crystal layer placed therebetween, and the transparent substrate is disposed forward to the first substrate in the light-incident direction. A quarter-wavelength plate is disposed in the transparent substrate, and a polarization plate is disposed on the surface at the forward side thereof in the light-incident direction. And, a reflection layer besides acting as a color filter consisting of a cholesteric liquid crystal is disposed inside liquid crystal cells of the first substrate. In the case of a wide field-of-view angle, a scattering film is disposed forward to the polarization plate in the light-incident direction.

A reflection LCD device has, on a front panel, a first phase shifter having a retardation of 145 to 180 nm which is a sum of ¼ of the central wavelength, 550 nm, of the visible wavelength range and an additional retardation, and a second phase shifter having a retardation of 250 to 300 nm which corresponds to ½ of the central wavelength. The optical axis of the first phase shifter is arranged so that the additional retardation of the first phase shifter and the residual retardation of the LC layer after application of a voltage cancel each other.

An in-plane-switching liquid crystal display unit has a two-dimensional matrix of pixel regions each including a first auxiliary region and a second region. When no electric field is applied, liquid crystal molecules in the first and second regions are directed in respective orientations that lie at 90° with respect to each other. When a voltage is applied, the liquid crystal molecules are rotated in the same direction while maintaining their orientations in the first and second regions at 90° with respect to each other. Alternatively, the liquid crystal molecules in the first and second regions are directed in the same orientation when no electric field is applied, and when a voltage is applied, the liquid crystal molecules are rotated opposite directions while maintaining their orientations in symmetric relationship.

There is provided an in-plane switching type liquid crystal display including (a) first and second polarizing plates facing each other and spaced away from each other, (b) a liquid crystal layer situated between the first and second polarizing plates, orientation azimuth of the liquid crystal layer being caused to vary by an electric field parallel to a substrate, (c) a first compensation layer situated between the first and second polarizing plates, the first compensation layer having positive uniaxial, optical anisotropy, and having an optical axis extending perpendicularly to the substrate, the first compensation layer varying birefringence thereof to thereby compensate for fluctuation in birefringence of the liquid crystal layer, caused by variation of a viewing angle, and (d) a second compensation layer situated between the first and second polarizing plates, the second compensation layer having positive uniaxial, optical anisotropy, and having an optical axis extending in parallel with the substrate and perpendicularly to initial orientation of the liquid crystal layer. Since a variation in birefringence of the first compensation layer cancels a variation in birefringence of the liquid crystal layer, the in-plane switching type liquid crystal display provides qualified images with less color caused by a change in a viewing angle.
摘要:
To provide a liquid crystal display device easily produced having no disclination which causes a light leak, an excellent visual angle and an excellent contrast ratio, a liquid crystal layer is interposed between two substrates, two or more of micro areas coexist with each other in the liquid crystal layer, and liquid crystal molecules in the micro areas build up from a center of each pixel. A potential of a second electrode disposed on an opening is made approximately identical with that of a counter electrode, and a potential of a peripheral electrode is higher than that of the counter electrode, thereby obtaining the liquid crystal display device in which the liquid crystal molecules build up from the center of each pixel. Thus, the liquid crystal display device easily produced having a wide visual angle and an excellent contrast ratio is obtained. In addition, a polymer organic compound is dispersed in the liquid crystal to fix a built up direction of the liquid crystal molecules.
