As shown in
The linear polarizing filter 120 may convert light generated in the plasma display panel 100 into linearly polarized light. Hence, the plasma display panel 100 emitting non-polarized light may display a 3D image.
When the display device includes a liquid crystal display panel instead of the plasma display panel 100, the linear polarizing filter 120 may be omitted.
Alternatively, when the display device includes the liquid crystal display panel instead of the plasma display panel 100, the linear polarizing filter 120 may be used.
The liquid crystal display panel generally emits linearly polarized light. However, polarized light having a traveling direction different from the linearly polarized light may exist in light emitted by the liquid crystal display panel. The polarized light having the traveling direction different from the linearly polarized light may be referred to as stray light.
As an occupying rate of the stray light increases, an extinction ratio of a left eye image and a right eye image of the 3D image is reduced. Hence, the quality of the 3D image may be reduced.
On the other hand, as shown in
In this instance, the extinction ratio of the left eye image and the right eye image may increase, and thus the quality of the 3D image may be improved.
Hereinafter, it is assumed that light incident on the filter 110 is linearly polarized light.
The plasma display panel 100 displays a predetermined image on its screen, and the filter 110 is disposed in the front of the plasma display panel 100.
The plasma display panel 100 may include a front substrate 201, on which scan electrodes 202 and Y and sustain electrodes 203 and Z are disposed parallel to each other, and a back substrate 211 opposite the front substrate 201, on which address electrodes 213 are disposed to cross the scan electrodes 202 and the sustain electrodes 203.
An upper dielectric layer 204 covering the scan electrodes 202 and the sustain electrodes 203 may be disposed on the front substrate 201, on which the scan electrodes 202 and the sustain electrodes 203 are disposed.
The upper dielectric layer 204 may limit a discharge current of the scan electrode 202 and the sustain electrode 203 and may provide insulation between the scan electrode 202 and the sustain electrode 203.
A protective layer 205 may be disposed on the upper dielectric layer 204 to facilitate discharge conditions. The protective layer 205 may be formed of a material having a high secondary electron emission coefficient, for example, magnesium oxide (MgO).
Further, electrodes, for example, the address electrodes 213 may be disposed on the back substrate 211. A lower dielectric layer 215 may be disposed on the back substrate 211, on which the address electrodes 213 are disposed, to cover the address electrodes 213 and to provide insulation between the address electrodes 213.
A plurality of barrier ribs 212 of a stripe type, a well type, a delta type, a honeycomb type, etc. for partitioning a discharge space, i.e., a discharge cell may be disposed between the front substrate 201 and the back substrate 211. Hence, red discharge cells, green discharge cells, blue discharge cells, etc. may be provided between the front substrate 201 and the back substrate 211.
For example, when the barrier ribs 212 have a closed type barrier structure, each of the barrier ribs 212 may include a first barrier rib (not shown) and a second barrier rib (not shown) crossing each other. A height of the first barrier rib may be different from a height of the of the second barrier rib.
Each of the discharge cells provided by the barrier ribs 212 may be filled with a predetermined discharge gas. Phosphor layers 214 may be disposed inside the discharge cell to emit visible light for an image display during an address discharge. For example, a red phosphor layer, a green phosphor layer, and a blue phosphor layer may be disposed inside the discharge cell.
So far, the embodiment of the invention describes and illustrates an exemplary structure of the plasma display panel, but is not limited thereto. For example, the embodiment of the invention describes and illustrates that the scan electrodes 202 and the sustain electrodes 203 are disposed to contact the upper surface of the front substrate 201. However, at least one functional layer, for example, another dielectric layer may be disposed between the scan and sustain electrodes 202 and 203 and the front substrate 201. Alternatively, the upper dielectric layer 204 may have a multi-layered structure.
As shown in
The first substrate 220 may provide a space in which the linear polarizing layer 240 may be disposed. It may be preferable that the first substrate 220 is formed of a transparent material. For example, the first substrate 220 may be formed of glass or plastic. Preferably, the first substrate 220 may be an isotropic film substrate.
The linear polarizing layer 240 may polarize light emitted by the plasma display panel 100 and emit linearly polarized light.
The linear polarizing layer 240 may include a left eye image linear polarization part 241 and a right eye image linear polarization part 242. The left eye image linear polarization part 241 and the right eye image linear polarization part 242 may be disposed on the same layer parallel to each other. Further, a phase of the left eye image linear polarization part 241 may be perpendicular to a phase of the right eye image linear polarization part 242. For example, one of retardation values of the left eye image linear polarization part 241 and the right eye image linear polarization part 242 may be λ/2, and the other may be zero. Hence, a retardation difference between an image passing through the left eye image linear polarization part 241 and an image passing through the right eye image linear polarization part 242 may be about 90°.
A method for implementing the 3D image using the filter 110 shown in
As shown in
As a result, the light passing through the left eye image linear polarization part 241 and the light passing through the right eye image linear polarization part 242 may substantially have a retardation difference of λ/2.
If a viewer wears 3D glasses 300 including different linear polarizing plates having a retardation difference of λ/2, the viewer perceives an image having the retardation difference of λ/2 through his or her both eyes, thereby feeling a stereoscopic feeling of the image. In this instance, each of a left eye lens and a right eye lens of the 3D glasses 300 may be a linear polarizing lens.
Alternatively, as shown in
The circular polarizing layer 230 may polarize light emitted by the plasma display panel 100 and emit circularly polarized light.
The circular polarizing layer 230 may include a left eye image circular polarization part 232 and a right eye image circular polarization part 231. The left eye image circular polarization part 232 and the right eye image circular polarization part 231 may be disposed on the same layer parallel to each other. Further, a phase of the left eye image circular polarization part 232 may be perpendicular to a phase of the right eye image circular polarization part 231. For example, one of retardation values of the left eye image circular polarization part 232 and the right eye image circular polarization part 231 may be λ/4, and the other may be −λ/4. Hence, a retardation difference between an image passing through the left eye image circular polarization part 232 and an image passing through the right eye image circular polarization part 231 may be about 90°.
A method for implementing the 3D image using the filter 110 shown in
As shown in
If the viewer wears 3D glasses 300 including different circular polarizing plates having a retardation difference of λ/2, the viewer perceives an image having the retardation difference of λ/2 through his/her both eyes, thereby feeling a stereoscopic feeling of the image. In this instance, each of a left eye lens and a right eye lens of the 3D glasses 300 may be a circular polarizing lens.
Alternatively, as shown in
The circular polarizing layer 233 may be disposed on the first substrate 220, and the linear polarizing layer 240 may be disposed on the circular polarizing layer 233. Positions of the circular polarizing layer 233 and the linear polarizing layer 240 may be changed with each other.
The linear polarizing layer 240 may include a left eye image linear polarization part 241 and a right eye image linear polarization part 242. The linear polarizing layer 240 was described above in detail with reference to
The circular polarizing layer 233 may have a retardation value of λ/4 or −λ/4. Further, the circular polarizing layer 233 may commonly overlap the left eye image linear polarization part 241 and the right eye image linear polarization part 242 of the linear polarizing layer 240. Namely, light passing through the left eye image linear polarization part 241 and light passing through the right eye image linear polarization part 242 pass through the circular polarizing layer 233.
A method for implementing the 3D image using the filter 110 shown in
As shown in
As a result, the light passing through the left eye image linear polarization part 241 and the light passing through the right eye image linear polarization part 242 may be linearly polarized light substantially having a retardation difference of λ/2.
Afterwards, the light passing through the left eye image linear polarization part 241 and the light passing through the right eye image linear polarization part 242 may pass through the circular polarizing layer 233 and thus may be circularly polarized light having a retardation difference of λ/2.
Accordingly, the viewer wears 3D glasses 300 including a left eye lens and a right eye lens, each of which is a circular polarizing lens, and may watch the 3D image.
The circular polarizing layer 233 or 230 may be used to increase a viewing angle, and thus the quality of the 3D image may be improved.
For example, as shown in
Thus, as shown in
On the other hand, as shown in
Thus, as shown in
Further, as shown in
In the filter 110, a position of the first substrate 220 may vary.
The filter 110 may further include at least one functional layer in addition to the linear polarizing layer 240 and the circular polarizing layer 233 or 230.
For example, as shown in
Further, the filter 110 may include various functional layers such as an anti-static layer and an anti-smudge layer.
As shown in
The subfield may include an address period, in which the discharge cells not to generate a discharge are selected or the discharge cells to generate a discharge are selected, and a sustain period, in which a gray level is represented depending on the number of discharges.
For example, each of the first and second subframes may include seven subfields SF1-SF7 or SF8-SF14 for representing 128-gray level, and each of the seven subfields SF1-SF7 or SF8-SF14 may include an address period and a sustain period.
Furthermore, at least one of the plurality of subfields of the frame may further include a reset period for initialization. Preferably, a first subfield of the subframe may include a reset period in which a reset signal is supplied to the scan electrode.
A weight value of each of the subfields may be set by adjusting the number of sustain signals supplied during the sustain period. Namely, a predetermined weight value may be assigned to each subfield using the sustain period. For example, in such a method of setting a weight value of a first subfield at 20 and a weight value of a second subfield at 21, the weight value of each subfield may increase in a rate of 2n (where, n=0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6). Hence, gray levels of various images may be represented by adjusting the number of sustain signals supplied in the sustain period of each subfield based on the weight value of each subfield.
As shown in
More specifically, the ramp-up signal RU may be supplied to the scan electrode Y during a setup period SU of the reset period RP, and the ramp-down signal RD may be supplied to the scan electrode Y during a set-down period SD following the setup period.
The ramp-up signal RU supplied to the scan electrode Y generates a weak dark discharge (i.e., a setup discharge) inside the discharge cells. Hence, wall charges may be uniformly distributed inside the discharge cells.
The ramp-down signal RD subsequent to the ramp-up signal RU generates a weak erase discharge (i.e., a set-down discharge) inside the discharge cells. Hence, the remaining wall charges may be uniformly distributed inside the discharge cells to the extent that an address discharge occurs stably.
During an address period AP following the reset period RP, a scan reference signal Ybias having a voltage greater than a minimum voltage of the ramp-down signal RD may be supplied to the scan electrode Y.
Further, a scan signal Sc falling from a voltage of the scan reference signal Ybias may be supplied to the scan electrode Y during the address period AP.
As above, when the scan signal Sc is supplied to the scan electrode Y, a data signal Dt corresponding to the scan signal Sc may be supplied to the address electrode X.
As a voltage difference between the scan signal Sc and the data signal Dt is added to a wall voltage obtained by the wall charges produced during the reset period RP, an address discharge may occur inside the discharge cell to which the data signal Dt is supplied.
Further, during the address period AP, a sustain reference signal Zbias may be supplied to the sustain electrode Z, so that the address discharge efficiently occurs between the scan electrode Y and the address electrode X.
During a sustain period SP following the address period AP, a sustain signal SUS may be supplied to at least one of the scan electrode Y and the sustain electrode Z. For example, the sustain signal SUS may be alternately supplied to the scan electrode Y and the sustain electrode Z.
As the wall voltage inside the discharge cell selected by performing the address discharge is added to a sustain voltage Vs of the sustain signal SUS, every time the sustain signal SUS is supplied, a sustain discharge, i.e., a display discharge may occur between the scan electrode Y and the sustain electrode Z.
The display device may include a plasma display panel 100, a data driver 101, a scan driver 102, a sustain driver 103, 3D glasses 300, a timing controller 400, and a signal transmitter 410.
In
The data driver 101 may supply a driving signal, for example, a data signal to address electrodes X1-Xm of the plasma display panel 100.
The scan driver 102 may supply a driving signal, for example, a scan signal to scan electrodes Y1-Yn of the plasma display panel 100.
The sustain driver 103 may supply a driving signal, for example, a sustain signal to sustain electrodes Z1-Zn of the plasma display panel 100.
The timing controller 400 may supply a predetermined timing control signal to each of the data driver 101, the scan driver 102, the sustain driver 103, and the signal transmitter 410, so as to control timing of each of the driving signals.
Further, the timing controller 400 generates a synchronization signal SS for controlling turn-on and turn-off operations of a left eye lens 301 and a right eye lens 302 of the 3D glasses 300.
The signal transmitter 410 may transfer the synchronization signal SS under the control of the timing controller 400.
A signal receiver (not shown) of the 3D glasses 300 receives the synchronization signal SS, and thus the turn-on and turn-off operations of the left eye lens 301 and the right eye lens 302 may be controlled in response to the synchronization signal SS.
More specifically, the timing controller 400 may turn on the left eye lens 301 in a left eye subframe and may turn on the right eye lens 302 in a right eye subframe.
Preferably, the timing controller 400 may supply the timing control signal, i.e., the synchronization signal SS to the 3D glasses 300 through the signal transmitter 410, thereby controlling turn-on and turn-off time points of the left eye lens 301 and the right eye lens 302.
It may be preferable that each of the left eye lens 301 and the right eye lens 302 includes a liquid crystal layer (not shown), whose molecular arrangement varies based on a voltage applied to each of the left eye lens 301 and the right eye lens 302, so as to turn on or off the left eye lens 301 and the right eye lens 302 in response to the synchronization signal SS.
For example, as shown in
In this instance, the left eye lens 301 may be turned on and the right eye lens 302 may be turned off during the first to seventh subfields SF1 to SF7, and the left eye lens 301 may be turned off and the right eye lens 302 may be turned on during the eighth to fourteenth subfields SF8 to SF14. The first subframe may be referred to as a left eye subframe, and the second subframe may be referred to as a right eye subframe.
As above, when the 3D glasses 300 operate in a shutter manner, in which the left eye lens 301 and the right eye lens 302 are turned on or off in response to the synchronization signal SS, a filter of the display device may include a circular polarizing layer. For example, as shown in
In this instance, as shown in
Hence, the viewer may wear the 3D glasses 300 and may watch the 3D image.
As above, the circular polarizing layer 233 may be used to increase the viewing angle.
The liquid crystal display may include a liquid crystal display panel and 3D glasses. The 3D glasses applicable to the liquid crystal display according to the embodiment of the invention may be polarization type 3D glasses illustrated in
As shown in
The first substrate 1600 and/or the second substrate 1610 may be a glass substrate. Further, an alignment layer (not shown) for setting a pre-tile angle of liquid crystals may be formed on the first substrate 1600 and/or the second substrate 1610.
The first electrode 1620 and/or the second electrode 1630 may be a transparent electrode. Further, the first electrode 1620 and/or the second electrode 1630 may apply a voltage supplied from a thin film transistor (TFT) (not shown) to the liquid crystal layer 1670.
The liquid crystal layer 1670 may include a plurality of liquid crystal molecules 1671. The arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules 1671 may vary based on a voltage supplied from the first electrode 1620 and/or the second electrode 1630.
Each of the first linear polarizing layer 1640 and the second linear polarizing layer 1660 has a light transmission axis of a predetermined direction. Further, the light transmission axis of the first linear polarizing layer 1640 may be substantially perpendicular to the light transmission axis of the second linear polarizing layer 1660.
The circular polarizing layer 1650 may convert light emitted from the backlight unit 1680 into circularly polarized light.
An operation of a twisted nematic (TN) mode is described on the assumption that the liquid crystal display is driven in a normally white mode.
As shown in
On the other hand, as shown in
In this way, a switching operation of the liquid crystal layer 1670 may be performed.
As shown in
The shutter type 3D glasses illustrated in
Each of the left eye lens and the right eye lens of the shutter type 3D glasses may transmit the circular polarized light and may be turned on or off in response to the input synchronization signal. For this, it may be preferable that each of the left eye lens and the right eye lens includes the liquid crystal layer. The liquid crystal display according to the embodiment of the invention may further include a signal transmitter, which transfers the synchronization signal to the shutter type 3D glasses so as to control turn-on and turn-off operations of the left eye lens and the right eye lens of the shutter type 3D glasses. The signal transmitter was described in detail above with reference to
Alternatively, the polarization type 3D glasses may be applied to the liquid crystal display according to the embodiment of the invention. For this, the liquid crystal display according to the embodiment of the invention may include the filter 110 illustrated in
In other words, it may be preferable that the liquid crystal display according to the embodiment of the invention may include the filter 110 shown in
Further, the left eye lens and the right eye lens of the 3D glasses 300 may be a polarizing lens, more specifically, a circular polarizing lens having a retardation difference of about λ/2.
As above, when the filter 110 including the linear polarizing layer 240 having the left eye image linear polarization part 241 and the right eye image linear polarization part 242 is disposed in the front of the liquid crystal display panel including the circular polarizing layer 1650, the viewer may watch the 3D image according to the circularly polarized light through the 3D glasses.
As shown in
More specifically, as shown in
The first electrode 1920 and/or the second electrode 1930 may be a transparent electrode. Further, the first electrode 1920 and/or the second electrode 1930 may apply a voltage supplied from a thin film transistor (TFT) (not shown) to the liquid crystal layer 1970.
The liquid crystal layer 1970 may include a plurality of liquid crystal molecules 1971. The arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules 1971 may vary based on a voltage supplied from the first electrode 1920 and/or the second electrode 1930.
The liquid crystal layer 1970 may have a 3D mode or a 2D mode based on changes in the arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules 1971. Namely, the liquid crystal layer 1970 may have the 3D mode or the 2D mode based on a driving signal supplied to the first electrode 1920 and/or the second electrode 1930. This is described in detail below.
As shown in
In the 2D mode, a retardation value of the left eye image part 2100 may be substantially equal to a retardation value of the right eye image part 2110. For example, because the voltage is supplied to the first electrode 1920 and the second electrode 1930 in the left eye image part 2100 and the right eye image part 2110, the liquid crystal molecules 1971 may be arranged in the arrangement form shown in
Further, in the 3D mode, as shown in
For this, light generated in the display panel 500 may pass through the liquid crystal layer 1970 without changes in a phase of the light by turning on the left eye image part 2100. Namely, the retardation value of the left eye image part 2100 is substantially zero. On the other hand, because a voltage different from the voltage supplied to the left eye image part 2100 is supplied to the first electrode 1920 and the second electrode 1930 in the right eye image part 2110, the right eye image part 2110 may have a retardation value of λ/2 by adjusting an arrangement angle of the liquid crystal molecules 1971.
In this instance, if the viewer wears the linear polarization type 3D glasses 300, the viewer may watch the 3D image.
Alternatively, in the 3D mode, as shown in
For this, a first driving signal is supplied to the first electrode 1920 and the second electrode 1930 in the left eye image part 2100, and a second driving signal different from the first driving signal is supplied to the first electrode 1920 and the second electrode 1930 in the right eye image part 2110. Hence, the retardation value of the left eye image part 2100 may be λ/4, and the retardation value of the right eye image part 2110 may be −λ/4 by adjusting an arrangement angle of the liquid crystal molecules 1971.
In this instance, if the viewer wears the circular polarization type 3D glasses 300, the viewer may watch the 3D image.
Further, when the filter 110 including the liquid crystal layer 1970 is used, the shutter type 3D glasses 300 may be applied to the display device.
Further, as shown in
In this instance, if the viewer wears the shutter type 3D glasses 300, the viewer may watch the 3D image.
Each of the left eye lens 301 and the right eye lens 302 of the shutter type 3D glasses 300 may pass through circularly polarized light and may be turned on or off in response to the input synchronization signal. For this, it may be preferable that each of the left eye lens 301 and the right eye lens 302 includes the liquid crystal layer. This was described in detail above with reference to
For example, the right eye lens 302 may be turned on and the right eye image may be implemented in one frame. The left eye lens 301 may be turned on and the left eye image may be implemented in a next frame.
For example, as shown in
Alternatively, right eye frames R and left eye frames L may be alternately arranged in a method for implementing an image according to a total of 60 frames (i.e., 60 Hz) for one second and a method for implementing an image according to a total of 240 frames (i.e., 240 Hz) for one second.
