Description

BACKGROUND

Technical Field

This application relates to the technical field of liquid crystal imaging devices, and in particular, to a liquid crystal display apparatus and a method for reducing a color difference at a viewing angle thereof.

Related Art

At present, large-sized liquid crystal display panels are usually manufactured by using a negative vertical alignment (VA) liquid crystal technology or an in-plane switching (IPS) liquid crystal technology. Compared with the IPS liquid crystal technology, the VA liquid crystal technology features high production efficiency and low manufacturing costs, but has more obvious disadvantages in optical properties. However, in commercial applications, a large-sized liquid crystal panel particularly requires a large viewing angle for presentation. A liquid crystal display panel using the VA liquid crystal technology has a problem of a color difference at a viewing angle, and consequently cannot meet a market requirement.

Generally, in the VA liquid crystal technology, subpixels in an image pixel group are further divided into primary pixels and secondary pixels, and different drive voltages are applied to the primary pixels and the secondary pixels in space, so as to avoid the color difference at the viewing angle. However, in such pixel design, metal wiring or a thin film transistor (TFT) component usually needs to be further designed to drive the secondary pixels, causing the loss of a transparent opening area. Consequently, not only the penetration rate of a liquid crystal display panel is affected, but also the manufacturing costs of a backlight module are increased.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, a liquid crystal display apparatus provided in an embodiment of this application includes: a backlight module 10, a liquid crystal display panel 20, where the liquid crystal display panel 20 being overlaid with the backlight module 10, a plurality of image pixel groups 21 arranged in arrays are disposed on the liquid crystal display panel 20, and each image pixel group 21 includes a plurality of image pixels; and a liquid crystal dimming panel 30, where the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 is overlaid with the liquid crystal display panel 20, and the liquid crystal display panel 20 is located between the backlight module 10 and the liquid crystal dimming panel 30. Drive voltages in locations on the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 relative to the different image pixel groups 21 are controlled, so as to control photon energy adjustment, at a viewing angle, between liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal dimming panel 30.

In this embodiment, the liquid crystal display panel 20 may be a VA type liquid crystal display panel 20, a twisted nematic (TN) type liquid crystal display panel 20, an optically compensated birefringence (OCB) type liquid crystal display panel 20, a curved display panel, or a COA type liquid crystal display panel, or may be a VA type liquid crystal display panel 20 having no compensation film polarizer, a TN type liquid crystal display panel 20 having no compensation film polarizer, or an OCB type liquid crystal display panel 20 having no compensation film polarizer. During actual application, one of them may be selected as the liquid crystal display panel 20 of the liquid crystal display apparatus. Certainly, in another embodiment of this application, a liquid crystal panel of another type may be selected as the liquid crystal display panel 20 of the liquid crystal display apparatus. This is not uniquely limited herein.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, in this embodiment, the a plurality of image pixel groups 21 arranged in arrays on the liquid crystal display panel 20 may be an RGB (Red, Green, and Blue) image pixel group 21, a WRGB (White, Red, Green, and Blue) image pixel group 21, or an RGBY (Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow) image pixel group 21. Certainly, the image pixel group 21 may also be a combination of image pixels of other colors. This is not limited herein. The RGB image pixel group 21 includes a red image pixel 211, a green image pixel 212, and a blue image pixel 213. Similarly, the WRGB image pixel group 21 includes a white image pixel, a red image pixel 211, a green image pixel 212, and a blue image pixel 213. The RGBY image pixel group 21 includes a red image pixel 211, a green image pixel 212, a blue image pixel 213, and a yellow image pixel.

In addition, in this embodiment, a liquid crystal filling process for the liquid crystal display panel 20 is the same as a that in the related art.

During use, the backlight module 10 is configured to provide backlight illuminating the liquid crystal display panel 20. Drive voltages in locations of the different image pixel groups 21 on the liquid crystal display panel 20 are controlled, to change an arrangement state of liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal display panel 20, thereby implementing imaging using the liquid crystal display panel 20. In this embodiment, because the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 is overlaid with the liquid crystal display panel 20, the drive voltages in the locations on the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 relative to different image pixel groups 21 can be controlled, to change an arrangement state of the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal dimming panel 30, so that the photon energy adjustment at the viewing angle is performed between the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal dimming panel 30, thereby achieving the effect of color uniformity at the full viewing angle, resolving a problem of a color difference at a viewing angle of a liquid crystal display apparatus using a VA liquid crystal technology, and meeting a market requirement.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, further, a plurality of dimming pixels 31 are disposed on the liquid crystal dimming panel 30, and the drive voltage is a drive voltage of each dimming pixel 31 on the liquid crystal dimming panel 30. Each dimming pixel 31 on the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 can be separately driven, and the drive voltage of each dimming pixel 31 is controlled, so that an image displayed on the liquid crystal display apparatus can be precisely adjusted according to different viewing angle ranges, thereby achieving the effect of color uniformity at the full viewing angle, and improving the user experience.

In this embodiment, the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 is a polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) array liquid crystal panel. PDLC is obtained by mixing liquid crystals (LC) and prepolymer Kuer UV65 glue, performing a polymerization reaction under a particular condition to form micron-sized liquid crystal microdroplets 352 uniformly dispersed in a network of a high-molecular polymer 351, and then obtaining a material having an electronic-optical response characteristic by means of dielectric anisotropy of liquid crystal molecules. The PDLC mainly works between a scattering state and a transparent state and has a particular grayscale.

As shown in FIG. 4, when a switch 36 of a power supply 37 on the PDLC array liquid crystal panel is turned on, optical axes of the liquid crystal microdroplets 352 located in the PDLC array liquid crystal panel are arranged perpendicular to a surface of a transparent conductive thin film and are consistent with an electric field in direction. In this case, an extraordinary light refractive index of the liquid crystal microdroplets 352 is basically matched with an refractive index of the polymer 351, and there is no obvious gap between the liquid crystal microdroplets 352 and the polymer 351. A polymer dispersed liquid crystal layer 35 is a basically uniform medium. Incident light reaches the polymer dispersed liquid crystal layer 35 after passing through a glass board 33, an interlayer 34, and a transparent conductive film 32, and then exits through a transparent conductive film 32, a transparent conductive film 32, and a glass board 33 on the opposite side. The incident light is not scattered in the polymer dispersed liquid crystal layer 35, and emergent light exits perpendicular to the glass board 33. Therefore, the polymer dispersed liquid crystal layer 35 is in a transparent state. In this way, a viewer can view a colorful picture from a front face of the liquid crystal display apparatus.

As shown in FIG. 5, when the switch 36 of the power supply 37 on the PDLC array liquid crystal panel is turned off or the drive voltages on the PDLC array liquid crystal panel are controlled to change, the optical axes of the liquid crystal microdroplets 352 located in the PDLC array liquid crystal panel are randomly orientated and in a disorder state. In this case, an effective refractive index of the liquid crystal microdroplets 352 is not matched with the refractive index of the polymer 351, a regular electric field cannot be formed in the polymer dispersed liquid crystal layer 35. Incident light is strongly scattered. The incident light is reflected and refracted in a plurality of directions in the polymer dispersed liquid crystal layer 35 for propagation after passing through the glass board 33, the interlayer 34, and the transparent conductive film 32, and then irregularly emits from a plurality of directions by passing through the transparent conductive film 32, an interlayer 34, and the glass board 33 on the opposite side. Therefore, the polymer dispersed liquid crystal layer 35 is in a non-transparent state or a semi-transparent state. In this case, photon energy adjustment at a viewing angle of the liquid crystal display panel 20 can be performed according to a different location of the viewer, so that energy at a front viewing angle of the liquid crystal display panel 20 is allocated toward a large viewing angle, thereby ensuring that a picture color and picture quality presented to the viewer in the location is the same as those viewed at the front viewing angle.

As shown in FIG. 1, further, the dimming pixels 31 are disposed in a one-to-one correspondence with the image pixel groups 21 on the liquid crystal display panel 20. Such design can effectively reduce the resolution of the liquid crystal dimming panel 30, reduce a quantity of drive lines and a quantity of drive components on the liquid crystal dimming panel 30, and increase the light transmittance of the liquid crystal dimming panel 30. Certainly, each dimming pixel 31 may be disposed corresponding to a plurality of neighboring image pixel groups 21 on the liquid crystal display panel 20. It should be further noted that such pixel design is applicable to a case in which the area of a local region of the dimming pixel 31 is sufficiently large and human eyes cannot recognize the color non-uniformity between different local regions.

As shown in FIG. 2, further, the dimming pixels 31 are disposed in a one-to-one correspondence with the image pixels in the image pixel groups 21. In this case, the dimming pixels 31 on the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 disposed in a one-to-one correspondence with the image pixels on the liquid crystal display panel 20 can be separately controlled and driven, so as to properly compensate for color presentation in the locations of different color blocks on the liquid crystal display panel 20. The locations of the different color blocks on the liquid crystal display panel 20 may also have a function of particularly enhancing local hue presentation, so as to stress presentation of a highly saturated hue.

As shown in FIG. 3, further, two opposite surfaces of the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 both include a transparent conductive film 32, and the drive voltages in the locations on the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 relative to the different image pixel groups 21 are controlled by means of wiring on the transparent conductive film 32, so as to control the photon energy adjustment, at the viewing angle, between the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal dimming panel 30. The transparent conductive film 32 may be a metal transparent conductive film 32 made of Ag, Pt, Cu, Rh, or the like, or may be a transparent conductive thin film made from oxide of In, Sn, Zn, or Cd or multi-component complex oxide thereof. Preferably, the transparent conductive thin film is an indium tin oxide (ITO) transparent conductive thin film, and the ITO transparent conductive thin film has desirable light transmittance and electrical conductivity.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, further, the backlight module 10 provides the backlight for the liquid crystal display panel 20, and the backlight is collimated light illuminating the liquid crystal display panel 20. Preferably, in this embodiment, a ⅓-luminance viewing angle of the liquid crystal display apparatus is less than 10°. For example, the ⅓-luminance viewing angle of the liquid crystal display apparatus may be 2°, 4°, 6°, or 8°. In such design, light emitted from the backlight module 10 can still maintain forward photon energy after passing through the liquid crystal display panel 20. Therefore, photon energy can be effectively and properly allocated, thereby saving energy and electricity. The ⅓-luminance viewing angle is a horizontal or vertical viewing angle when luminance at the screen center is decreased to ⅓ of maximum luminance.

In this embodiment, the backlight module 10 may include one or more light emitting points. Preferably, when the backlight module 10 includes a plurality of light emitting points, the plurality of light emitting points are disposed in a one-to-one correspondence with the image pixels on the liquid crystal display panel 20, so that collimated light emitted from each light emitting point of the backlight module 10 can intensively illuminate the corresponding image pixel on the liquid crystal display panel 20, and light that exits the liquid crystal display panel 20 can maintain forward photon energy, thereby improving the optical efficiency, and effectively using the photon energy.

Specifically, the light emitting point of the backlight module 10 may be a lamp, a light emitting diode, a cold-cathode fluorescent tube, a hot-cathode fluorescent tube, an electroluminescent sheet, an organic electroluminescent sheet, a flat fluorescent lamp, or the like. Certainly, a light emitting source of another type may be selected as the light emitting point of the backlight module 10 in another embodiment of this application. This is not uniquely limited herein. In addition, in this embodiment, a corresponding spotlight component may be further disposed at each light emitting point of the backlight module 10. The spotlight component may be a spotlight lens, an optical film used for spotlighting, or the like. In such case, the light emitting point of the backlight module 10 may be selected as a normal light emitting source of scattered light, and scattered light emitted from the light emitting source forms collimated light after being converged by the spotlight component, and then illuminates the liquid crystal display panel 20.

Further, the liquid crystal display apparatus further includes a signal modem (not shown) configured to modulate or demodulate a picture signal received by the liquid crystal display apparatus and a controller (not shown) electrically connected to the signal modem. The controller controls, according to the signal modulated or demodulated by the signal modem, a drive voltage of the image pixel on the liquid crystal display panel 20 and the drive voltage of the dimming pixel 31 on the liquid crystal dimming panel 30. After the liquid crystal display apparatus receives the picture signal, the signal modem modulates or demodulates the picture signal, and then the modulated or demodulated signal is transmitted back to the controller. The controller controls an image of the liquid crystal display panel 20 according to the signal, and also controls the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 to adjust picture colors viewed in different viewing angle ranges. Therefore, the problem of a color difference at a viewing angle of the liquid crystal display apparatus is resolved, and the viewer can obtain, from different viewing angles, a picture effect the same as a picture effect at a front viewing angle.

Further, the liquid crystal display apparatus further includes an eye tracking apparatus (not shown) electrically connected to the controller and configured to track and determine a location of the eyes of the viewer relative to the liquid crystal display apparatus. When the location of the viewer relative to the liquid crystal display apparatus changes, the eye tracking apparatus can instantly capture a movement behavior of the viewer and detects new location information of the viewer relative to the liquid crystal display apparatus. Then, the eye tracking apparatus further transmits, to the controller, the detected new location information of the viewer relative to the liquid crystal display apparatus. The controller controls the drive voltage of the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 according to the location information, and adjusts a ratio of liquid crystal scattering to light transmission of the polymer 351 in the liquid crystal dimming panel 30 in a timely manner. Different photon energy compensation amounts are provided for different viewing angles, to improve the quality of a picture displayed after the location of the viewer changes, so that there is no color difference from any viewing angles.

Further, the eye tracking apparatus is a CCD positioning apparatus. A CCD is also referred to as an image controller or a CCD image sensor. The CCD positioning apparatus features high resolution, high sensitivity, a wide dynamic range, low image distortion, a large photosensitive area, and the like. Certainly, according to an actual case and requirement, in another embodiment of this application, the eye tracking apparatus may be any other device capable of implementing a tracking and positioning function. This is not uniquely limited herein.
