Description
技术领域: Technical field:
本发明涉及液晶显示器制造技术领域,尤其涉及一种半透半反式液晶显示器。The invention relates to the technical field of liquid crystal display manufacture, in particular to a transflective liquid crystal display.
背景技术: Background technique:
随着电子科学技术的发展,目前液晶显示器在日常生活中已经大量应用。但是,传统的全透射式液晶显示器在具有强烈外界光的环境下,其显示效果往往无法满足正常使用的需求,因此,出现了半透半反式液晶显示器。With the development of electronic science and technology, liquid crystal displays have been widely used in daily life. However, the display effect of the traditional fully transmissive liquid crystal display cannot meet the requirements of normal use in an environment with strong external light. Therefore, a transflective liquid crystal display appears.
在半透半反式液晶显示器的像素结构中,包括透射部分和反射部分,其中透射部分可以射出背光源发出的背光,在光线较弱的环境下,保证液晶显示器的可视性,反射部分包括反射金属层,可以反射外界的入射光,在具有强烈外界光的环境下保证液晶显示器的对比度,提高其显示效果。半透半反式液晶显示器中,通常设置反射部分的液晶盒厚为透射部分的液晶盒厚的一半,以保证透射出的背光和反射出的外界光在液晶盒内的光程差一致。The pixel structure of a transflective liquid crystal display includes a transmissive part and a reflective part. The transmissive part can emit the backlight from the backlight source to ensure the visibility of the liquid crystal display in a weak light environment. The reflective part includes The reflective metal layer can reflect the incident light from the outside, so as to ensure the contrast of the liquid crystal display and improve the display effect in the environment with strong external light. In a transflective liquid crystal display, the thickness of the liquid crystal cell in the reflective part is usually set to half the thickness of the liquid crystal cell in the transmissive part, so as to ensure that the optical path difference between the transmitted backlight and the reflected external light in the liquid crystal cell is consistent.
如图1所示,为常见的半透半反式液晶显示器的结构示意图,图中仅示出了一个像素单元,包括:相对设置的下基板10、上基板20以及位于其间的液晶层30。As shown in FIG. 1 , it is a schematic structural diagram of a common transflective liquid crystal display, and only one pixel unit is shown in the figure, including: a
其中,下基板10包括:朝向液晶层30方向依次设置的第一玻璃基板101、有机膜绝缘层102和反射金属层103。像素区域中反射金属层103的对应的区域为反射区域R,其余区域为透射区域T。有机膜绝缘层102与反射区域R重合,用以调节反射区域的液晶盒厚及反射面的漫反射程度。由于有机膜的物理特性,有机膜绝缘层102在制作时无法形成一个具有竖直边界的边缘,而是形成具有一定的倾斜度边缘,具体可参见图1中所示的有机膜绝缘层102的倾斜边缘1021。由于倾斜边缘1021区域的液晶盒厚在短距离内变化较大,使该区域的反射光或透射光的光程差与其它区域很难一致,因此该区域不适于形成透射区域或反射区域,该倾斜边缘1021表面上同样被反射金属层103覆盖,以遮挡背光源通过倾斜边缘1021透射出的背光光线。Wherein, the
上基板20包括:朝向液晶层30方向依次设置的:第二玻璃基板201、第一黑矩阵202,其中,第一黑矩阵202设置在上基板20上与有机膜绝缘层102的倾斜边缘1021相对应的区域,用于遮挡倾斜边缘1021上反射金属层103反射出的光线。The
然而,上述半透半反式液晶显示器存在以下技术问题:有机膜绝缘层的倾斜边缘透射的背光光线被反射金属层遮挡,反射金属层反射出的入射光线被第一黑色矩阵遮挡,使倾斜边缘区域既不能用于作为反射区域,也不能用于作为透射区域,即不能用于显示图形图像,因此倾斜边缘区域会占用正常像素的开口率,降低背光的通过效率,影响显示效果。However, the above-mentioned transflective liquid crystal display has the following technical problems: the backlight light transmitted by the inclined edge of the organic film insulating layer is blocked by the reflective metal layer, and the incident light reflected by the reflective metal layer is blocked by the first black matrix, making the inclined edge The area can neither be used as a reflective area nor a transmissive area, that is, it cannot be used to display graphic images, so the inclined edge area will occupy the aperture ratio of normal pixels, reduce the passing efficiency of backlight, and affect the display effect.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
实施例一:Embodiment one:
如附图2所示,为本实施例提供的半透半反式液晶显示器的一种结构示意图,该液晶显示器具体包括:As shown in Figure 2, it is a schematic structural diagram of a transflective liquid crystal display provided in this embodiment, and the liquid crystal display specifically includes:
相对设置的下基板10、上基板20以及位于其间的液晶层30;The
所述下基板10至少包括第一基板101、位于第一基板朝向液晶层30一面上的有机膜绝缘层102、位于有机膜绝缘层102上的第一反射金属层1031;所述有机膜绝缘层102具有倾斜边缘1021;The
其中,第一反射金属层1031的对应的区域为反射区域R,其余区域为透射区域T。第一反射金属层1031用于将外界入射的自然光通过反射出液晶显示器,保证液晶显示器的对比度,并提高其可视性。Wherein, the corresponding area of the first
有机膜绝缘层102与反射区域R重合,用以调节反射区域R的液晶盒厚及反射面的漫反射程度。由于有机膜的物理特性,有机膜绝缘层102在制作时无法形成一个具有竖直边界的边缘,而是形成具有一定的倾斜度边缘,具体可参见图2中所示的有机膜绝缘层102的倾斜边缘1021。The
所述上基板20至少包括第二基板201、位于第二基板201朝向液晶层30一面上的第一黑色矩阵202;所述第一黑色矩阵202设置在第二基板201上与所述倾斜边缘1021相对应的区域。The
所述第一黑色矩阵202朝向液晶层30的一面上设置有第二反射金属层203;所述第二反射金属层203设置在上基板20与所述倾斜边缘1021相对应的区域。A second
所述有机膜绝缘层102上除倾斜边缘1021设置有第一反射金属层1031,所述倾斜边缘1021的表面无第一反射金属层1031覆盖。The first
本实施例所提供的半透半反式液晶显示器在透射模式中,控制反射区域R的液晶分子的长轴方向与上下基板垂直,且与光线传播方向平行,控制透射区域T的液晶分子的长轴方向与上下基板平行,且与光线传播方向垂直,即控制反射区域R呈黑态,透射区域T呈正常灰阶,此时,从正常透射区域T出射的光线经过π的光程差而出射。由于倾斜边缘1021的表面具有一定的倾斜角度,因此倾斜边缘1021范围内透射出的背光在其表面会发射一定的折射,形成具有一定倾斜角度的透射光线,该透射光线经过π的光程差后到达第二反射金属层203,由于该透射光线具有一定的倾斜角度,因此该透射光线会被第二反射金属层203反射到第一反射金属层1031表面上,并经过第一反射金属层1031的二次反射后从反射区域R出射。在从第二反射金属层203到从反射区域R出射的过程中,因为光路位于反射区域R,如前所述反射区域R的液晶分子的长轴方向平行于光线的传播方向,因此反射区域R在光线传播的方向上液晶层30不表现出光学各向异性,此时通过反射区域R的光线并不受液晶分子双折射影响,其光程差保持不变,从反射区域R出射的光线和从透射区域T出射的光线光程差一致,都为π,所以反射区域R和透射区域T显示的灰阶相同。In the transmissive mode of the transflective liquid crystal display provided by this embodiment, the long axis direction of the liquid crystal molecules in the control reflective region R is perpendicular to the upper and lower substrates and parallel to the light propagation direction, and the long axis direction of the liquid crystal molecules in the transmissive region T is controlled. The axial direction is parallel to the upper and lower substrates and perpendicular to the direction of light propagation, that is, the reflective region R is controlled to be in a black state, and the transmissive region T is in a normal gray scale. At this time, the light emitted from the normal transmissive region T passes through the optical path difference of π. . Since the surface of the
在本实施例提供的半反半透式液晶显示器在反射模式中,控制透射区域T的液晶分子的长轴方向与上下基板垂直,且与光线传播方向平行,控制反射区域R的液晶分子的长轴方向与上下基板平行,且与光线传播方向垂直,即控制透射区域T呈黑态,反射区域R呈正常灰阶。此时可以使用低频率驱动方式控制反射区像素电极,显示静态画面,适合于待机场合,可以做到低功耗的应用。In the reflective mode of the transflective liquid crystal display provided in this embodiment, the long axis direction of the liquid crystal molecules in the control transmissive region T is perpendicular to the upper and lower substrates and parallel to the light propagation direction, and the long axis direction of the liquid crystal molecules in the reflective region R is controlled. The axial direction is parallel to the upper and lower substrates and perpendicular to the direction of light propagation, that is, the control transmission area T is in a black state, and the reflection area R is in a normal gray scale. At this time, the low-frequency driving method can be used to control the pixel electrodes in the reflective area to display static images, which is suitable for standby occasions and can achieve low-power applications.
本发明实施例提供的半透半反式液晶显示器中,在有机膜绝缘层的倾斜边缘表面上不设置的反射金属层,并在黑色矩阵朝向液晶层的一面上对应下基板的倾斜边缘的位置设置了第二反射金属层,能够使斜倾斜边缘范围内的背光光线由反射区域射出,进而能够提高背光的通过效率,改善其显示效果。In the transflective liquid crystal display provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the reflective metal layer is not provided on the inclined edge surface of the organic film insulating layer, and the position corresponding to the inclined edge of the lower substrate on the side of the black matrix facing the liquid crystal layer The second reflective metal layer is provided, so that the backlight light in the range of the inclined edge can be emitted from the reflective area, thereby improving the passing efficiency of the backlight and improving its display effect.
实施例二:Embodiment two:
为了实现对半透半反式液晶显示器中反射区域和透射区域电极电位的分别控制,如图3提供的液晶显示器的局部结构示意图所示,反射区域为R,透射区域为T,第一黑色矩阵202,实施例一中所述的下基板还可以包括:位于第一基板朝向液晶层一面上的第一薄膜晶体管401(TFT,Thin FilmTransistor)和第二薄膜晶体管402。In order to realize the separate control of the electrode potentials in the reflective area and the transmissive area of the transflective liquid crystal display, as shown in the partial structure diagram of the liquid crystal display provided in Figure 3, the reflective area is R, the transmissive area is T, and the first
第一薄膜晶体管401用以控制反射区域R的像素电极电位,第二薄膜晶体管402用于控制透射区域T的像素电极电位。The first thin film transistor 401 is used to control the potential of the pixel electrode in the reflective region R, and the second thin film transistor 402 is used to control the potential of the pixel electrode in the transmissive region T.
本实施例提供的半透半反式液晶显示器的像素中,使用第一薄膜晶体管上401连接的第一栅极线501和第一数据线601控制反射区域R的反射像素电极电位,该液晶显示器在透射模式时,通过控制所述反射像素电极电位,可以控制反射区域R的液晶分子的长轴方向与电场方向平行,即与光线传播方向垂直,使反射区域R呈黑态。使用第二薄膜晶体管402上连接的第二栅极线502和第二数据线602控制透射区域T的透射像素电极电位,该液晶显示器在透射模式时,通过控制所述透射像素电极电位,可以控制透射区域T的液晶分子的长轴方向与电场方向垂直,即与光线传播方向垂直,使透射区域呈正常灰阶。In the pixel of the transflective liquid crystal display provided in this embodiment, the first gate line 501 and the first data line 601 connected to the first thin film transistor 401 are used to control the reflective pixel electrode potential of the reflective region R, the liquid crystal display In the transmission mode, by controlling the electrode potential of the reflective pixel, the long axis direction of the liquid crystal molecules in the reflective region R can be controlled to be parallel to the direction of the electric field, that is, perpendicular to the light propagation direction, so that the reflective region R is in a black state. Use the second gate line 502 and the second data line 602 connected to the second thin film transistor 402 to control the potential of the transmissive pixel electrode in the transmissive region T. When the liquid crystal display is in the transmissive mode, by controlling the potential of the transmissive pixel electrode, it can control The long axis direction of the liquid crystal molecules in the transmissive region T is perpendicular to the direction of the electric field, that is, perpendicular to the light propagation direction, so that the transmissive region exhibits a normal gray scale.
在所述液晶显示器处于透射模式中,参见附图4所示的液晶显示器的工作原理示意图,同时参考图3,透射区域T的第二薄膜晶体402控制透射像素电极显示正常的灰阶,反射区域R的第一薄膜晶体管401控制反射像素电极显示黑态,此时,反射区域R在光线的传播方向上液晶层不表现出光学各项异性,使通过反射区域R的光线并不受液晶分子双折射影响,其光程差保持不变,进而保证了从反射区域R出射的光线和从透射区域T出射的光线光程差一致,使反射区域R和透射区域T显示的灰阶相同。When the liquid crystal display is in the transmission mode, refer to the schematic diagram of the working principle of the liquid crystal display shown in Figure 4, and refer to Figure 3 at the same time, the second thin film crystal 402 in the transmission area T controls the transmission pixel electrode to display normal gray scale, and the reflection area T The first thin film transistor 401 of R controls the reflective pixel electrode to display a black state. At this time, the liquid crystal layer in the reflective region R does not show optical anisotropy in the direction of light propagation, so that the light passing through the reflective region R is not affected by the liquid crystal molecules. Due to the influence of refraction, the optical path difference remains unchanged, thereby ensuring that the optical path difference of the light emitted from the reflective region R and the light emitted from the transmissive region T is consistent, so that the gray scales displayed by the reflective region R and the transmissive region T are the same.
此外,为了降低半透半反式液晶显示器的功耗,本实施例中,所述反射区域的第一薄膜晶体管401具体可以为双栅结构。在反射模式中,反射区域R像素电极采用低频率驱动的模式,可以显示静态画面,适用于液晶显示器的待机状态,此时,具有双栅结构的第一薄膜晶体管401可以有效降低电位保持期间的漏电流。In addition, in order to reduce the power consumption of the transflective liquid crystal display, in this embodiment, the first thin film transistor 401 in the reflective region may specifically have a double gate structure.
