摘要:
There is provided a liquid crystal display including a panel using a liquid crystal material having spontaneous polarization, such as ferroelectroic liquid crystal (FLC), having a faster response time suitable to display dynamic images. The FLC has the disadvantage caused by the incomplete memory effect at during driving for displaying “black” in several frames, where the light transmittance is preferably desired zero. The panel in the display are driven signals so that the driving signals are applied across the picture element, where the signals are positively or negatively offset to reference voltage of the panel.
摘要:
A liquid crystal display in which a liquid crystal, which has a spontaneous polarization of a magnitude of not more than ½ of a maximum quantity of charge that is injected to each pixel when the switching element is turned on, is filled between alignment films formed on respective glass substrates, so as to form a liquid crystal layer thereby to drive the liquid crystal by using a lower applied voltage.

An optical switching device of the present invention includes at least two substrates disposed facing opposite to each other. By scattering hard spacers which are thermally undeformable and soft spacers which are larger in size than the hard spacers and adapted to deform and then to cure by heat to adhere to the substrates, the spacing defined between the substrates is kept constant by diameters of the hard spacers. A medium having an optical switching function is retained in a gap defined between the substrates. The periphery of the gap between the substrates is sealed with a sealer. The sealer is made of a thermosetting resin having a thermosetting point equal to or higher than the thermosetting point of the soft spacers.

A liquid crystal layer is formed by filing the space between alignment films formed on two glass substrates, respectively, with a ferroelectric liquid crystal having spontaneous polarization. When the maximum charge amount injected to each pixel by the switching of a switching element, the area of each pixel electrode and the magnitude of the spontaneous polarization of the ferroelectric liquid crystal per unit area are denoted as Q, A, and PS, respectively, the relation 2PS·A>Q is established. A cone angle 2&thgr; (&thgr;: tilt angle) of the ferroelectric liquid crystal is not smaller than 45°. It is possible to use a liquid crystal material having large spontaneous polarization, and a high-speed response is realized even when a low voltage is applied to the liquid crystal material.

A ferroelectric liquid crystal display element equipped with a ferroelectric liquid crystal layer exhibiting a bookshelf layer structure and having a helical pitch of about one or two times a thickness thereof. A ferroelectric liquid crystal display element equipped with a ferroelectric liquid crystal layer holding a mingling state of two areas: one is an area where a polarization direction after removing of a predetermined voltage over the threshold voltage for a spontaneous polarization remains as inverted; and the other is an area where the polarization direction is again inverted back to the original.

An in-vehicle display apparatus includes a display portion that respectively displays images on a first screen for a driver and on a second screen for a front passenger on a common display to be visible from a viewing angle of the driver and another viewing angle from the front passenger, and further includes an operating portion, a signal outputting portion, a signal receiving portion, an operator detecting portion, and a controller. The signal receiving portion receives signals from the signal outputting portion, when the driver or the front passenger touches the operating portion.

A control apparatus specifies a response time required for a pre-change transmittance specified by image data of an image to be displayed on the liquid crystal display panel to become a post-change transmittance specified by image data of a subsequent image, subsequent to the image, to be displayed on the liquid crystal display panel, for each pixel of the liquid crystal display panel, based on the pre-change transmittance and on the post-change transmittance; derives a representative response time defined as a response time of an image in a frame, based on the response time specified for each of the pixels; and sets an unlit time period of the backlight, between display of the image and the subsequent image, according to the representative response time.
