Abstract:
When normal driving is switched to intermittent driving simultaneously with switching from a video image to a still image, a flicker may occur due to a response delay caused by dielectric anisotropy of liquid crystal. A display device has a first mode (video image driving) in which driving is performed at a first frame frequency and a second mode (still image driving) in which the driving is performed at a second frame frequency lower than the first frame frequency. When the first mode is switched to the second mode, the display device first performs the driving at a frame frequency higher than the second frame frequency for at least one frame and then, the driving is switched to be performed at the second frame frequency.

Abstract:
There is provided a high-definition liquid crystal display device that can prevent flicker due to a reduction in the pixel potential in a low-frequency drive of about 10 Hz to reduce power consumption. The pixel has a TFT formed of Poly-Si as a switching element. In the pixel, a capacitance insulating film is formed on a planar first electrode on which a comb-shaped second electrode is fanned. When the film thickness of the insulating film is d and the dielectric constant at 10 Hz frequency is ε, it is given that εd≧5×10−6 m at 10 Hz frequency. The capacitance insulating film does not have a hysteresis characteristic. The refractive index of the capacitance insulating film with respect to a light of a wavelength of 632.8 nm is 1.7 to 2.0.
