The color filter substrate provided by the present invention includes a base plate and multiple red color resists on the base plate. Wherein, a thickness of the multiple red color resists at an edge region is greater than a thickness of the multiple red color resists at a center region. In the present invention, a cell gap corresponding to the red color resists at the center region of the liquid crystal panel is greater than a cell gap corresponding to the red color resists at the edge region to reduce the difference of the red light of the transmittance at the center region and the transmittance at the edge region. Accordingly, a brightness ratio of the red light, the blue light and the green light at the edge region is similar to a brightness ratio of the red light, the blue light and the green light at the center region in order to improve a red-shift phenomenon generated at the edge region of the liquid crystal display panel so as to increase the display quality of the liquid crystal display panel.
In order to let the person skilled in the art to understood the technology solution of the present invention better, the following will combine the figures and the specific embodiments to describe a color filter substrate, a liquid crystal panel, a liquid crystal display device and a manufacturing method for the same in detail. In the figures, a same numeral in the entire specification and figures represents a same element.
A liquid crystal display panel generates different colors through controlling a brightness ratio of a red light, a green light and a blue light. Therefore, estimating a color-shift problem of a liquid crystal display panel in different viewing angles can be defined as estimating a problem of difference of brightness ratios of a red light, a green light and a blue light in different viewing angles of the liquid crystal display panel.
In the VA display mode of the liquid crystal display panel, the transmittance of the three colors can refer to a following formula:
In the formula, φ is an azimuth angle of liquid crystal molecules, And is a factor of the change in transmittance, wherein, Δn is a difference of a normal light and an abnormal light caused by a birefringence property of liquid crystal molecules; d is a cell gap; λ is a wavelength of a light incident to the liquid crystal molecules. In the VA display mode, the azimuth angle of liquid crystal molecules is a fixed value. However, in different viewing angles, corresponding factors of the change in transmittance Δnd are different. Accordingly, in different viewing angles, the transmittance of the red light, the green light and the blue light are changed.
With reference to
When a user located at point “A” views the liquid crystal panel, a front view is formed with respect to a center region of the liquid crystal display panel, edge regions are all side views, and changes of view angles are the same. At this time, the factors of the changes in the transmittance Δnd of the three colors are all decreased, and the variation amounts of the factors of the changes in the transmittance are the same. Assuming that the variation amount in the transmittance of the red light, the green light and the blue light are respectively ΔTr, ΔTg and ΔTb. Because a relationship in wavelength among the red light, the green light and the blue light is λr>λg>λb, according to the above formula, a relationship of the variation amount in the transmittance of the red light, the green light and the blue light is ΔTr<ΔTg<ΔTb. Therefore, from the center region to the edge region of the liquid crystal display panel the variation amount in the transmittance of the red light is smallest so that the brightness of the red light at the edge region of the liquid crystal display panel is highest such that when the user at the point “A” views the liquid crystal panel, the color at the edge region is shifted to red comparing to the center region so that a serious color-shift problem is existed.
With reference to
In the present embodiment, because the thicknesses of the red color resists R at the center region is less than the thicknesses of the red color resists R at the edge region such that a cell gap of the red color resists at the center region is greater than a cell gap of the red color resists at the edge region so that the transmittance of the red light at the edge region is less than the transmittance of the red light at the center region in order to decrease the brightness of the red light at the edge region of the liquid crystal display panel. When an user views the liquid crystal panel at a center location, from the center region to the edge region of the liquid crystal display panel, a variation amount in the transmittance of the red light is smaller than a variation amount in the transmittance of the red light in the conventional art such that a brightness ratio of the red light, the blue light and the green light is similar to a brightness ratio of the red light, the blue light and the green light at the center region in order to improve the red-shift phenomenon at the edge region of the liquid crystal panel.
The base plate 10 of the color filter substrate 100 in the present embodiment can be a glass base plate 10, or a TFT base plate 10. Because the color filter substrate 100 is used for filtering color in the liquid crystal panel so that the light pass through the liquid crystal display panel appears a corresponding color. According to the conventional manufacturing process, the base plate 10 of the color filter substrate 100 can be a glass base plate 10 or a TFT base plate 10.
In the present embodiment, the color filter substrate 100 is further provided with a black matrix (not shown in the figure). The black matrix is disposed between two adjacent color resists. For example, the black matrix is provided between the red color resists R and the green color resists G, the black matrix is provided between the green color resists G and the blue color resists B. Among the adjacent red color resists R, the adjacent green color resists G and adjacent blue color resists B, the black matrix is also provided.
Furthermore, with reference to
As shown in
Because the size of the liquid crystal panel is larger, when a user views a liquid crystal panel from a center region to an edge region, viewing angles of the user with respect to the liquid crystal panel are not changed suddenly, but gradually changed from the center region to the edge region of the liquid crystal panel. Accordingly, in the present embodiment, the base plate 10 is divided into multiple regions from the center to the edge such that the thicknesses of the red color resists R are as a gradient change from the center region to the edge region in the multiple regions so that a brightness ratio of the red light, the blue light and the green light of each region is similar to a brightness ratio of the red light, the blue light and the green light at the center region such that brightness ratios of the red light, the blue light and the green light on the entire liquid crystal panel tend to the same in order to improve the color shift problem of the liquid crystal display panel and increase the display quality.
With reference to
As shown in
According to the analysis of the color shift, because the wavelength of the green light is next only to a wavelength of the red light so that a variation amount in the transmittance of a green light is next only to a variation amount in the transmittance of the red light. Therefore, when a red-shift phenomenon at the edge region of the liquid crystal display panel is improved, a green-shift phenomenon is generated. In a liquid crystal display panel, a contribution of a brightness of the green color resist G is larger. If adopting a same method to increase the thicknesses of the green color resists G at the edge region of the base plate 10, the transmittance of the liquid crystal panel will decrease such that the brightness of the entire liquid crystal display panel is decreased so as to decrease the display quality. Accordingly, the method cannot be adopted.
In the present embodiment, the thicknesses of the green color resists G at the edge region on the base plate 10 are equal to the thicknesses of the green color resists G at the center region so that for the entire liquid crystal display panel, the entire brightness will not decrease. Because a color of a liquid crystal display panel is decided by a brightness ratio of the red light, the green light and the blue light, the present embodiment reduces the thicknesses of the blue color resists B at the edge region of the base plate 10 so as to increase the transmittance of the blue light at the edge region of the liquid crystal display panel. The above method is equal to decrease the brightness of the green light at the edge region so as to improve the green-shift phenomenon at the edge region in order to increase the display quality.
With reference to
As shown in
In the present, when the base plate 10 is divided into multiple regions from the center to the edge, each region includes multiple red color resists R, multiple blue color resists B and multiple green color resists G. Besides, width of each region can be the same or be different.
The arrangement of the blue color resists B in the present embodiment is similar to the gradient arrangement of the thicknesses of the red color resists R. Because the size of the liquid crystal panel is larger, when a user views a liquid crystal panel from a center region to an edge region, viewing angles of the user with respect to the liquid crystal panel are changed gradually from the center region to the edge region of the liquid crystal panel. Accordingly, in the present embodiment, the base plate 10 is divide into multiple regions from the center to the edge such that the thicknesses of the blue color resists B present a gradient arrangement from the center region to the edge region in the multiple regions so that a brightness ratio of the red light, the blue light and the green light of each region on the liquid crystal panel is similar to a brightness ratio of the red light, the blue light and the green light at the center region of the liquid crystal panel such that the brightness ratios of the red light, the blue light and the green light on the entire liquid crystal panel tend to be consistent in order to improve the color-shift problem of the liquid crystal display panel and increase the display quality.

S101: using a mask that a transmittance of an edge region is greater than a transmittance of a center region to expose a color resist material for forming red color resists.
Coating a color resist material for forming red color resist on the base plate of the color filter substrate. When exposing the color resist material for forming red color resist, using the mask that the transmittance of the edge region is greater than the transmittance of the center region to expose the color resist material for forming red color resists.
Because the color resist material is a negative material, when a received exposure amount is more, an exposure intensity is larger such that a curing degree of the color resist material is more thorough. Accordingly, when exposing the color resist material for forming red color resist coated on the base plate, using the mask that the transmittance of the edge region is greater than the transmittance of the center region such that an exposure intensity of the color resist material at the edge region is greater than an exposure intensity of the color resist material at the center region such that a curing degree of the color resist material at the edge region is greater than a curing degree of the color resist material at the center region. Accordingly, when using a developing solution to the color resist material for forming red color resists, a thickness of the red color resist at the edge region is greater than a thickness of the red color resist at the center region. The structure of the red color resists formed by the above method is as the structure of the red color resists R on the color filter substrate 100 in the liquid crystal display panel shown in
Besides, the mask used for forming the color resist material for red color resists can be divided into multiple regions from a center to an edge such that an exposure intensity of the color resist material for forming red color resists closer to the center region of the substrate is smaller. Correspondingly, the thicknesses of the red color resists closer to the center region of the base plate are smaller. The structure of the red color resists formed by the above method is the structure of the red color resists R on the color filter substrate 101 in the liquid crystal display panel shown in
S102: using a mask that a transmittance of an edge region is less than a transmittance of a center region to expose a color resist material for forming blue color resists.
Coating the color resist material for forming blue color resists on the base plate of the color filter substrate, when exposing the color resist material for forming blue color resist, using the mask that the transmittance of the edge region is less than the transmittance of the center region to expose the color resist material for forming blue color resist. The structure of the blue color resist formed by the above method is as the structure of the blue color resists B on the color filter substrate 102 in the liquid crystal display panel shown in
Besides, the mask used for forming the color material for forming blue color resists can be divided into multiple regions from a center to an edge. The transmittance of the region of the mask closer to the center of the mask is greater such that an exposure intensity of the color resist material for forming blue color resists closer to the center region of the base plate is greater. Correspondingly, the thicknesses of the blue color resists closer to the center region of the base plate are greater. The structure of the blue color resists formed by the above method is the structure of the blue color resists B on the color filter substrate 103 in the liquid crystal display panel shown in
Besides, the step 102 can also use a mask having an unchanged transmittance to expose the color resist material for forming blue color resists such that the thicknesses of the blue color resists on the color filter substrate are the same. The structure of the blue color resists formed by the above method is the structure of the blue color resist B on the color filter substrate 100 in the liquid crystal display panel as shown in
S103: Using a mask having a uniform transmittance to expose a color resist material for forming green color resists.
Because thicknesses of the green color resists are the same on the entire base plate of the color filter substrate, using the mask having the uniform transmittance to expose the color resist material for forming green color resists.
It can be understood that the step S101, the step S102 and the step S103 are respectively used for exposing the color resist materials for forming red color resists, blue color resists and green color resists in order to form the red color resists, the blue color resists and the green color resists, which does not have an order relationship. Therefore, among the step S101, the step S102 and the step 103, the execution sequence is not limited.
The present invention further provides a liquid crystal display device. The liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal display panel and a driving circuit. Wherein, the driving circuit is electrically connected to the liquid crystal display panel and through the driving circuit to drive the liquid crystal display panel. The liquid crystal display panel in the present embodiment can be anyone of the liquid crystal display panels shown in
In the present invention, the thicknesses of the red color resists at the edge region is greater than the thicknesses of the red color resists at the center region of the base plate of the color filter substrate such that a cell gap corresponding to the red color resists at the center region of the liquid crystal panel is greater than a cell gap corresponding to the red color resists at the edge region. Accordingly, the color shift at the edge region of the liquid crystal display panel is compensated to improve a red-shift phenomenon generated at the edge region of the liquid crystal display panel so as to increase the display quality of the liquid crystal display panel.
