1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a display technical field, more particularly, relates to an array substrate, a method of manufacturing the array substrate, and a liquid crystal display apparatus comprising the array substrate.
2. Description of the Related Art
A thin film transistor-liquid crystal display (or simply referred as TFT-LCD) mainly comprises a liquid crystal display panel, polarizers disposed on both sides of the liquid crystal display panel, and a backlight source. The liquid crystal display panel comprises an array substrate, a package substrate and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the substrates.
A white light emitted from the backlight source is a polychromatic light comprising a red light (with a wavelength of 630 nm), a green light (with a wavelength of 550 nm), a blue light (with a wavelength of 430 nm). After passing through a polarizer outside an array substrate, the white light is converted into a linearly polarized white light. Since the red light, the green light and the blue light have different wavelengths, if the linearly polarized white light passes through a liquid crystal layer with same thickness and same deflection angle, a linearly polarized red light, a linearly polarized green light and a linearly polarized blue light in the linearly polarized white light will show different degrees of optical phase delay, so that the linearly polarized red light, the linearly polarized green light and the linearly polarized blue light have different degrees of variation in the polarization direction after passing through the liquid crystal layer. As a result, under the same voltage, transmittances of the linearly polarized red light, the linearly polarized green light and the linearly polarized blue light transmitting through a color filter and a polarizer at a light-outputting side of a liquid crystal display panel are different from each other due to differences in the polarization direction. Consequently, there is a chromatic aberration between a color generated by mixing lights of different sub pixel regions in different grayscales and an actual color, which adversely affects the display effect.
The present invention has been made to provide an array substrate, a method of manufacturing the array substrate, and a liquid crystal display apparatus comprising the array substrate. An object of the present invention is to reduce chromatic aberration and improve display effect.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the embodiments of the present invention provide the following solutions:

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a liquid crystal display apparatus comprising the above array substrate.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the liquid crystal display apparatus further comprises a color filter substrate comprising a color layer. Each of the pixel units in the array substrate comprises the first sub pixel unit, the second sub pixel unit and the third sub pixel unit. The first angle of the strip electrode of the first sub pixel unit with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer is greater than or equal to the second angle of the strip electrode of the second sub pixel unit with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer, and the second angle of the strip electrode of the second sub pixel unit with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer is greater than or equal to the third angle of the strip electrode of the third sub pixel unit with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer. The color layer comprises a red filter corresponding to the first sub pixel unit, a green filter corresponding to the second sub pixel unit, and a blue filter corresponding to the third sub pixel unit. Alternatively, the array substrate further comprises a color filter, and the color filter comprises a red filter corresponding to the first sub pixel unit, a green filter corresponding to the second sub pixel unit, and a blue filter corresponding to the third sub pixel unit.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of manufacturing an array substrate comprising a plurality of pixel units arranged in an array, the pixel units each comprising at least a first sub pixel unit, a second sub pixel unit and a third sub pixel unit, the sub pixel units each comprising a pixel electrode, a common electrode and an orientation layer,
the method comprising step of:
configuring at least one of the pixel electrode and the common electrode in each sub pixel unit to a strip electrode,
wherein the strip electrode of the first sub pixel unit defines a first angle with respect to an orientation of the orientation layer, the strip electrode of the second sub pixel unit defines a second angle with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer, the strip electrode of the third sub pixel unit defines a third angle with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer, and
wherein at least two of the first angle, the second angle and the third angle are not equal to each other.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a liquid crystal display apparatus, comprising:
a backlight source emitting a white light;
a light-inputting side polarizer, through which the white light from the backlight source is converted into a linearly polarized white light comprising a linearly polarized red light, a linearly polarized green light and a linearly polarized blue light; and
a plurality of pixel units arranged in an array, wherein the pixel units each comprising at least a first sub pixel unit, a second sub pixel unit and a third sub pixel unit, the sub pixel units each comprising a pixel electrode, a common electrode and an orientation layer, at least one of the pixel electrode and the common electrode in each of the sub pixel units is configured to be a strip electrode, the strip electrode of the first sub pixel unit defines a first angle with respect to an orientation of the orientation layer, the strip electrode of the second sub pixel unit defines a second angle with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer, the strip electrode of the third sub pixel unit defines a third angle with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer, and at least two of the first angle, the second angle and the third angle are not equal to each other;

In the prior art, an array substrate is applied in a liquid crystal display apparatus. Since a white light emitted from a backlight source is a polychromatic light comprising a red light, a green light, a blue light, the white light, after passing through a polarizer at a light-inputting side of the liquid crystal display apparatus, is converted into a linearly polarized white light. Since the red light, the green light and the blue light in the white light have different wavelengths, if the linearly polarized white light passes through the liquid crystal layer with same thickness and same deflection angle, a linearly polarized red light, a linearly polarized green light and a linearly polarized blue light in the linearly polarized white light will show different degrees of variation in the polarization direction. As a result, under the same voltage, transmittances of the linearly polarized red light, the linearly polarized green light and the linearly polarized blue light transmitting through a polarizer at a light-outputting side of the liquid crystal display panel are different from each other.
In the exemplary embodiments of the present invention, angles of strip electrodes in various sub pixel units of each pixel unit with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer are configured based on a certain relation. In this way, under the same voltage, the linearly polarized red light, the linearly polarized green light and the linearly polarized blue light can transmit through the polarizer at the light-outputting side of the liquid crystal display apparatus in substantially the same light transmittance. Thereby, it reduces the chromatic aberration between a color generated by mixing lights of different sub pixel regions in different grayscales and an actual color, improving the display effect of the liquid crystal display apparatus.
In order to describe clearly the embodiments of the present invention or the solutions in the prior art, figures which will be used during the describing are illustrated as follows in a simple way.

10—array substrate; 10a—first sub pixel unit; 10b—second sub pixel unit; 10c—third sub pixel unit; 10d—fourth sub pixel unit; 100—thin film transistor; 101—pixel electrode; 102—common electrode; 103—orientation layer; 1030—orientation of the orientation layer; 104—strip electrode.
Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described hereinafter in detail with reference to the attached drawings. The embodiments described are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without involving any inventive step all falls within the scope of the present invention.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a liquid crystal display apparatus comprising an array substrate 10, a package substrate and a liquid crystal layer between the array substrate 10 and the package substrate. In addition, the liquid crystal display apparatus further comprises polarizers provided at both sides of the liquid crystal display apparatus, respectively, and a backlight source.
The array substrate 10 comprises a plurality of pixel units arranged in an array. Each of the pixel units comprises at least a first sub pixel unit 10a, a second sub pixel unit 10b and a third sub pixel unit 10c. As shown in
In an exemplary embodiment, as shown in
Also, please note following several points:
First point, the liquid crystal display apparatus comprises the array substrate 10 and the package substrate. In a case where the array substrate 10 does not comprise a color filter, the package substrate is a color filter substrate. In a case where the array substrate 10 comprises a color filter, the package substrate is only used to mate with the array substrate 10 to form a box structure in which liquid crystal is filled. The color filter may be disposed at any suitable position herein.
Second point, as for a common array substrate 10, each pixel unit of which may comprise three or four sub pixel units, but the present invention is not limited to this, the number of the sub pixel units may be determined according to an actual configuration of the liquid crystal display panel.
Third point, limited to the preparation process of the orientation layer 103, all orientation layers 103 in the entire array substrate 10 have the same orientation. Thereby, in any one of the pixel units, the terms “at least two of angles of the strip electrodes 104, in the first sub pixel unit 10a, the second sub pixel unit 10b and the third sub pixel unit 10c, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer are not equal to each other” only means that oblique angles of the strip electrodes 104 with respect to the orientation 1030 are not completely equal to each other.
Herein, the phrase “not completely equal to each other” means that for any one of the pixel units, the oblique angles of the strip electrodes 104 in two sub pixel units of the pixel unit with respect to the orientation 1030 may be different from each other, and the oblique angles of the strip electrodes 104 in other sub pixel units of the pixel unit with respect to the orientation 1030 may be equal to the oblique angle of the strip electrode 104 in one of the above two sub pixel units; or means that for any one of the pixel units, the oblique angles of the strip electrodes 104 in any two sub pixel units of the pixel unit with respect to the orientation 1030 are different from each other.
The oblique angle of the strip electrode 104 in each sub pixel unit with respect to the orientation 1030 may be determined according to actual structure parameters of the array substrate 10 and by performing a simulation match on a voltage-transmittance curve of the liquid crystal display apparatus, so that different colors of linearly polarized lights have the same transmittance through the liquid crystal display apparatus under the same voltage.
Fourth point, in all pixel units, the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in corresponding sub pixel units at the same relative position with respect to the orientation 1030 are equal to each other.
For example, if each of the pixel units comprises the first sub pixel unit, the second sub pixel unit and the third sub pixel unit which are sequentially arranged from left to right, then the first sub pixel unit in any one pixel unit corresponds to the first sub pixel unit in any another pixel unit, the second sub pixel unit in any one pixel unit corresponds to the second sub pixel unit in any another pixel unit, and the third sub pixel unit in any one pixel unit corresponds to the third sub pixel unit in any another pixel unit.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, there is also provided a liquid crystal display apparatus comprising an array substrate 10, a package substrate, a liquid crystal layer between the array substrate 10 and the package substrate, polarizers provided at a light-inputting side and a light-outputting side of the liquid crystal display apparatus, respectively, and a backlight source.
The array substrate 10 comprises a plurality of pixel units arranged in an array. Each of the pixel units comprises at least a first sub pixel unit 10a, a second sub pixel unit 10b and a third sub pixel unit 10c. Each of the sub pixel units comprises a thin film transistor 100, a pixel electrode 101 electrically connected to a drain electrode of the thin film transistor 100, a common electrode 102, and an orientation layer 103. At least one of the pixel electrode 101 and the common electrode 102 in each of the sub pixel units is configured to be a strip electrode 104.
Alternatively, at least two of angles of the strip electrodes 104, in the first sub pixel unit 10a, the second sub pixel unit 10b and the third sub pixel unit 10c, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer 103 are not equal to each other.
A white light emitted from the backlight source is a polychromatic light comprising a red light, a green light, a blue light. Thereby, after passing through a polarizer at the light-inputting side of the liquid crystal display apparatus, the white light is converted into a linearly polarized white light. Since the red light, the green light and the blue light in the white light have different wavelengths, if the linearly polarized white light passes through the liquid crystal layer with same thickness and same deflection angle, a linearly polarized red light, a linearly polarized green light and a linearly polarized blue light in the linearly polarized white light will show different degrees of variation in the polarization direction. As a result, under the same voltage, transmittances of the linearly polarized red light, the linearly polarized green light and the linearly polarized blue light transmitting through a polarizer at a light-outputting side of the liquid crystal display apparatus are different from each other.
In order to overcome the above problem, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, angles of strip electrodes 104 in various sub pixel units of each pixel unit in the array substrate 10 with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer are configured based on a certain relation. In this way, under the same voltage, the linearly polarized red light, the linearly polarized green light and the linearly polarized blue light can transmit through the polarizer at the light-outputting side of the liquid crystal display apparatus in substantially the same light transmittance. Thereby, it reduces the chromatic aberration between a color generated by mixing lights of different sub pixel regions in different grayscales and an actual color, improving the display effect of the liquid crystal display apparatus.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, one sub pixel unit in the array substrate 10 corresponds to one color filter in the color filter, for example, a red filter. After a linearly polarized white light passes through one color filter corresponding to any one sub pixel unit in the array substrate 10, for example, a red filter, the linearly polarized white light only can be converted into a linearly polarized red light corresponding to the red filter. Thereby, during configuring the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the sub pixel unit with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer, it only needs to consider the linearly polarized red light emitted from the red filter. Similarly, during configuring the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in other two sub pixel units with respect to the orientation of the orientation layer, it also only needs to consider a linearly polarized green light and a linearly polarized blue light emitted from a green filter and a blue filter, respectively.
Also, the relation among the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in various sub pixel units with respect to the orientation 1030 may be determined according to actual structure parameters of the array substrate 10 and by performing a simulation match on a voltage-transmittance curve of the liquid crystal display apparatus.
Alternatively, as shown in
Further, the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the first sub pixel unit 10a with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer is configured to be greater than or equal to the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the second sub pixel unit 10b with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer. The angle of the strip electrode 104 in the second sub pixel unit 10b with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer is configured to be greater than or equal to the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the third sub pixel unit 10c with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer.
Herein, the angle (a first angle) between the strip electrode 104 in the first sub pixel unit 10a and the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be a; the angle (a second angle) between the strip electrode 104 in the second sub pixel unit 10b and the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be b; and the angle (a third angle) between the strip electrode 104 in the third sub pixel unit 10c and the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be c. Then, the angles between the strip electrodes 104 in the first, second and third sub pixel units and the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may satisfy a relation: a≧b≧c, wherein at least two of a, b and c are not equal to each other.
In this case, the array substrate 10 may further comprise a color filter. The color filter comprises a red filter, a green filter and a blue filter. The red filter corresponds to the first sub pixel unit 10a, the green filter corresponds to the second sub pixel unit 10b, and the blue filter corresponds to the third sub pixel unit 10c.
Alternatively, the package substrate is configured to be a color filter substrate, and the color filter substrate comprises a color layer. The first sub pixel unit 10a may correspond to a red filter in the color layer of the color filter substrate; the second sub pixel unit 10b may correspond to a green filter in the color layer of the color filter substrate; and the third sub pixel unit 10c may correspond to a blue filter in the color layer of the color filter substrate.
Further, as shown in
Herein, an oblique angle of a strip electrode 104 in the fourth sub pixel unit 10d with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be determined according to actual structure parameters of the array substrate 10 and by performing a simulation match on a voltage-transmittance curve of the liquid crystal display apparatus, so that different colors of linearly polarized lights have the same transmittance through the liquid crystal display apparatus under the same voltage.
Based on the above description, alternatively, the array substrate 10 may be an In-Plane Switch (IPS) type array substrate. In this case, as shown in
Or alternatively, the array substrate 10 may be an Advanced-super Dimensional Switching (ADS) type array substrate. In this case, as shown in
Please be noted that, in embodiments of the present invention, only the relation among the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in various sub pixel units with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer is defined, and it does not define a width of the strip electrode 104 and the space between adjacent strip electrodes 104. The width of the strip electrode 104 and the space between adjacent strip electrodes 104 may be determined according to the structure of different array substrate 10.
Hereafter, it will perform a simulation match on a voltage-transmittance curve of the liquid crystal display apparatus by suitably setting the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in the first, second and third sub pixel units with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer.
If the angles of the strip electrodes 104 with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer are set to be too small, it can obtain a liquid crystal display apparatus having high transmittance, but the liquid crystal response speed becomes slow. If the angles of the strip electrodes 104 with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer are set to be too large, it can obtain a liquid crystal display apparatus having quick response, but the high transmittance becomes low. Thereby, in order to well match the transmittance and the liquid crystal response speed, as for a small sized liquid crystal display apparatus, the angles of the strip electrodes 104 with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be in a range of 5°˜11°. As for a large sized liquid crystal display apparatus, the angles of the strip electrodes 104 with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be greater than 11°.
Based on the above description, further, as for the small sized liquid crystal display apparatus, the angle of the strip electrode 104, in the first sub pixel unit 10a corresponding to the red filter, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be in a range of 7°˜11°; the angle of the strip electrode 104, in the second sub pixel unit 10b corresponding to the green filter, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be in a range of 7°˜11°; and the angle of the strip electrode 104, in the third sub pixel unit 10c corresponding to the blue filter, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be in a range of 5°˜9°.
In the above ranges, the angle (the first angle) of the strip electrode 104, in the first sub pixel unit 10a corresponding to the red filter, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be equal to the angle (the second angle) of the strip electrode 104, in the second sub pixel unit 10b corresponding to the green filter, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer. The angle (the third angle) of the strip electrode 104, in the third sub pixel unit 10c corresponding to the blue filter, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer is set to be less than the first angle and the second angle by 1°˜2°, so as to avoid the chromatic aberration from becoming too large at a low gray scale.
In an example, if the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in the three sub pixel units, corresponding to the red filter (with a wavelength of 630 nm), the green filter (with a wavelength of 550 nm), the blue filter (with a wavelength of 430 nm) in the color layer of the color filter substrate, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer are all set to be equal to 7°, and a simulation match is performed on the voltage-transmittance curve of the liquid crystal display apparatus.
Herein, the liquid crystal layer has a thickness of 3.6 nm, the birefringence of liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal layer is 0.99, the strip electrode has a width of 2 nm, and a space between adjacent strip electrodes is 4 nm. After simulation, a voltage-transmittance curve is obtained, as shown in
In the above example, the linearly polarized red light, the linearly polarized green light and the linearly polarized blue light show different degrees of optical phase delay during passing through the liquid crystal layer with same thickness and same deflection angle. Thereby, the linearly polarized red light, the linearly polarized green light and the linearly polarized blue light show different degrees of variation in the polarization direction after passing through the liquid crystal layer. As a result, under the same voltage, transmittances of the linearly polarized red light, the linearly polarized green light and the linearly polarized blue light transmitting through the color filter substrate and the polarizer at the light-outputting side of the liquid crystal display apparatus are different from each other. In the above example, the voltage-transmittance curve corresponding to the red filter and the voltage-transmittance curve corresponding to the green filter are approximately same, but quietly different from the voltage-transmittance curve corresponding to the blue filter. Consequently, the chromatic aberration is produced in the liquid crystal display apparatus during displaying an image, especially, a white image shows a yellow chromatic aberration in different gray-scales.
In order to well match the voltage-transmittance curve corresponding to the blue filter with the voltage-transmittance curves corresponding to the red filter and the green filter, in an example, the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in the sub pixel units, corresponding to the red filter and the green filter in the color filter substrate, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer both are set to be equal to 7°, the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the sub pixel unit, corresponding to the blue filter in the color filter substrate, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer is set to be equal to 5°, and a simulation match is performed again on the voltage-transmittance curve of the liquid crystal display apparatus.
The voltage-transmittance curve obtained in this simulation match is shown in
As a result, based on the above simulation match, finally, the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in the first sub pixel unit 10a and the second sub pixel unit 10b, corresponding to the red filter and the green filter, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer both are set to be equal to 7°, the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the third sub pixel unit 10c, corresponding to the blue filter, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer is set to be equal to 5°.
In the above case, the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in the three sub pixel units 10a, 10b and 10c with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer satisfy a relation expression: a=b>c.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, there is also provided a method of manufacturing the array substrate 10. The array substrate 10 comprises a plurality of pixel units arranged in an array. Each of the pixel units comprises at least a first sub pixel unit 10a, a second sub pixel unit 10b and a third sub pixel unit 10c. The method may comprise step of: as for any sub pixel unit, forming a thin film transistor 100, a pixel electrode 101 and a common electrode 102 on a substrate, and forming an orientation layer 103 on the substrate on which the thin film transistor 100, the pixel electrode 101 and the common electrode 102 have been formed. At least one of the pixel electrode and the common electrode in each of the sub pixel units is configured to be a strip electrode. At least two of angles of the strip electrodes 104, in the first sub pixel unit 10a, the second sub pixel unit 10b and the third sub pixel unit 10c, with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer are not equal to each other.
Please be noted that the thin film transistor 100 formed on the substrate may be a top gate type thin film transistor or a bottom gate type thin film transistor.
Also, the pixel electrode 101 or the common electrode 102 may be formed during forming the thin film transistor 100. The sequence of forming the pixel electrode 101, the common electrode 102 and the thin film transistor 100 may be designed according to an actual structure of the array substrate 10 and the manufacturing method.
Alternatively, as shown in
In this embodiment, the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the first sub pixel unit 10a with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer is configured to be greater than or equal to the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the second sub pixel unit 10b with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer. The angle of the strip electrode 104 in the second sub pixel unit 10b with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer is configured to be greater than or equal to the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the third sub pixel unit 10c with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer. In addition, at least two of the above angles are not equal to each other.
Based on the above description, in an exemplary embodiment, the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the first sub pixel unit 10a with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be in a range of 7°˜11°; the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the second sub pixel unit 10b with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be in a range of 7°˜11°; and the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the third sub pixel unit 10c with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be in a range of 5°˜9°.
Further, the angles of the strip electrodes 104 in the first sub pixel unit 10a and the second sub pixel unit 10b with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be equal to 7°; and the angle of the strip electrode 104 in the third sub pixel unit 10c with respect to the orientation 1030 of the orientation layer may be set to be equal to 5°.
In this case, the array substrate 10 may further comprise a color filter. The color filter comprises a red filter, a green filter and a blue filter. In an example, the red filter corresponds to the first sub pixel unit 10a, the green filter corresponds to the second sub pixel unit 10b, and the blue filter corresponds to the third sub pixel unit 10c.
Alternatively, if the array substrate 10 is applied in the liquid crystal display apparatus, the package substrate may be a color filter substrate, and the color filter substrate comprises a color layer. In an example, the first sub pixel unit 10a may correspond to a red filter in the color layer of the color filter substrate; the second sub pixel unit 10b may correspond to a green filter in the color layer of the color filter substrate; and the third sub pixel unit 10c may correspond to a blue filter in the color layer of the color filter substrate.
