BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

As the display specifications of liquid crystal displays continue to develop toward large sizes, the market demands more and more attention to high contrast, rapid response, and wide viewing angles for the performance requirements of liquid crystal displays. In order to overcome the viewing angle problem of a large-sized liquid crystal display panel, the wide viewing angle technology of the liquid crystal display panel must be continuously improved and broken. Polymer Stabilized Vertically Aligned (PSVA) is one of the wide viewing angle technologies currently widely used in liquid crystal display panels.

At present, PSVA type liquid crystal panels generally adopt 4-Domain design. In order to maximize the transmittance of the PSVA type liquid crystal panel, the liquid crystal direction of each domain is at an angle of 45 degrees with the absorption axis of the polarizing plate. Therefore, it is necessary to set the angle between the direction of the ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) electrode and the horizontal direction to 45 degrees.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments, but the embodiments of the invention are not limited thereto.

It should be noted that the terms “vertical”, “horizontal”, “left”, “right” and the like are used herein for the purpose of illustration only and are not intended to be the only embodiment.

Embodiment 1

Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a pixel according to an embodiment of the invention. The pixel structure of this embodiment includes:

a main electrode 101; and

a plurality of branch electrodes 102 connected to the main electrode 101;

the branch electrode includes a first branch electrode and a second branch electrode, an acute intersecting angle between the first branch electrode and the main electrode is a first angle β1, and an acute intersecting angle between the second branch electrode and the main electrode is a second angle β2.

In a specific embodiment, the first angle β1 is equal to 45 degrees and the second angle β2 is greater than or equal to 40 degrees and less than 45 degrees.

Preferably, the second angle β2 is 42 degrees.

When the acute intersecting angle β1 between the first branch electrode and the main electrode of a pixel structure is 45 degrees, and the acute intersecting angle β2 between the second branch electrode and the main electrode is 42 degrees, the effect of removing the whitening phenomenon in side view is best.

The main electrode 101 in the embodiment is strip-shaped, and the main electrode 101 is a branch electrode 102 on both sides, and each branch electrode 102 is also strip-shaped, and is connected to the main electrode 101. A slit is formed between the gaps between each adjacent two branch electrodes 102 and extends to an edge position of the pixel structure, which is generally referred to as an alignment slit.

The embodiment of the invention solves the whitening phenomenon which occurs in the side view by designing the acute intersecting angle between the branch electrode of the pixel electrode, for example, the ITO electrode and the main electrode, as the first angle β1 and the second angle β2. Moreover, while ensuring the removal of the whitening phenomenon, it is also ensured that the pixel structure has a high transmittance, thereby making the display more uniform and improving the display effect.

In a specific embodiment, the main electrode is a cross-shaped electrode, the main electrode divides the pixel structure into four domains, and adjacent two branch electrodes in any one of the domains are parallel to each other, wherein:

A plurality of first branch electrodes are disposed in any two of the domains, and a plurality of second branch electrodes are disposed in the other two of the domains.

In a specific embodiment, the angle between the first branch electrode and the horizontal direction of the cross-shaped electrode is a first angle β1, and the angle between the second branch electrode and the horizontal direction of the cross-shaped electrode is a second angle β2.

In a specific embodiment, referring to FIG. 1, the main electrode is a cross-shaped electrode, and the cross-shaped electrode divides the pixel structure into four domains, namely, A1, A2, A3, and A4. The A1 domain is adjacent to the A2 domain and the A3 domain. In each of the above four domains, the branch electrodes in each domain are connected to the main electrode 101, so that the electrodes are interconnected. For one of the four domains, the inclination directions of all the branch electrodes in each domain are the same, that is, the adjacent two branch electrodes in any one of the domains are parallel to each other.

Taking the A1 domain as an example, the relative position of the A1 domain is located at the upper left of the pixel structure, and the tilt direction of the branch electrodes in the domain is also inclined toward the upper left direction.

Preferably, the branch electrodes in the adjacent two domains are not parallel to each other.

That is, taking the A2 domain as an example, the relative position of the A2 domain is located at the upper right of the pixel structure, and the tilt direction of the branch electrode in the domain is also inclined toward the upper right direction; taking the A3 domain as an example, the relative position of the A3 domain is located at the lower left of the pixel structure, and the tilt direction of the branch electrode in the domain is also inclined toward the lower left direction; taking the A4 domain as an example, the relative position of the A4 domain is located at the lower right of the pixel structure, and the tilt direction of the branch electrode in the domain is also inclined toward the lower right direction. That is to say, the orientation of any one of the branch electrodes in the A1 domain is different from that of any one of the A2 domain, that is, the branch electrodes in the A1 domain are not parallel to the branch electrodes in the A2 domain. Similarly, the branch electrodes in the A1 domain are not parallel to the branch electrodes in the A3 domain. The orientation of the above electrodes can be set to improve the display color shift after voltage application.

Further, the branch electrodes in the two domains adjacent in the first direction are all the first branch electrodes, the branch electrodes in the adjacent two domains in the second direction are all second branch electrodes.

Preferably, the first direction and the second direction are both horizontal directions.

For example, referring to FIG. 1, both the A1 domain and the A2 domain are in the first direction, and the branch electrodes in the A1 domain and the A2 domain are the first branch electrodes, both the A3 domain and the A4 domain are in the second direction, and the branch electrodes in the A3 domain and the A4 domain are the second branch electrodes.

Preferably, the first direction and the second direction are both vertical directions.

For example, referring to FIG. 2, both the A1 domain and the A3 domain are in the first direction, and the branch electrodes in the A1 domain and the A3 domain are the first branch electrodes, both the A2 domain and the A4 domain are in the second direction, and the branch electrodes in the A2 domain and the A4 domain are the second branch electrodes.

Further, the branch electrodes in the two domains on the first diagonal line are the first branch electrodes, and the branch electrodes in the two domains on the second diagonal line are the second branch electrodes.

For example, referring to FIG. 3, the A1 domain and the A4 domain are on the first diagonal, and the A2 domain and the A3 domain are on the second diagonal, the branch electrodes in the A1 domain and the A4 domain are all the first branch electrodes, and the branch electrodes in the A2 domain and the A3 domain are the second branch electrodes.

The invention changes the orientation direction of the liquid crystal in the partial domain by designing the acute intersecting angle between the branch electrode and the main electrode in the different domains in the single pixel structure as the first angle β1 and the second angle β2, and the whitening phenomenon of the PSVA type liquid crystal panel when viewed from different viewing angles is solved, and the high transmittance can be maintained, so that the display is uniform and the display effect is improved.

In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 4, the data line 201 is disposed perpendicular to the scan line 202. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, a pixel structure 10 is carried by the data line 201 and the scan line 202. In an actual display panel, one scan line 202 and one data line 201 correspond to a plurality of pixel structures connected thereto. The data line 201 is used to load the data driving signal onto the pixel structure 10. The data driving signal controls the pixel structure to display colors of different gray scales according to the magnitude of the driving voltage; the scan line 202 is used to load a scan driving signal to the pixel structure, and the scan driving signal controls whether the data driving signal is loaded onto the pixel structure 10. In one embodiment, the data line 201 and the scan line 202 are generally made of a conductive material, and specifically may be a metal element, an alloy, a metal oxide, a metal nitride, a metal oxynitride or a combination of two or more of the above materials.

For the sake of better explanation, in the present embodiment, the switching device 203 is exemplified as a TFT (Thin Film Transistor).

Specifically, the TFT includes a source, a drain, and a gate, wherein the source is connected to the data line 201, the gate is connected to the scan line 202, and the drain is connected to the pixel structure 10. In operation, the scan driving circuit generates a scan driving signal, which is transmitted to the gate of the TFT through the scan line, thereby controlling the gate to be turned on. At this time, the data driving signal generated by the data driving circuit is transmitted to the source of the TFT through the scan line. At this time, since the TFT gate is turned on, the data driving signal of the source is input into the pixel structure 10 to complete one driving.

In a specific embodiment, one pixel unit includes an X row and Y column pixel structure (0<M≤X, 0<N≤Y), and adjacent two rows of pixel structures are mirror-symmetrical. The purpose of this setting can further remove the whitening phenomenon, thereby improving the display effect. For more convenient description, each pixel structure is marked, and the pixel structure of the N-th row and the M-th column is A_N,M, for example, the pixel structure of the first row and the first column is A_1,1.

The purpose of this setting is to optimize the effect of removing the whitening phenomenon, thereby further improving the display effect.

In a specific embodiment, the adjacent two columns of pixel structures have opposite polarities, that is, a polarity column inversion method. For example, when the polarity of the pixel structure of the i-th column is +−+−+−, the polarity of the pixel structure corresponding to the i+1th column is −+−+−+.

In this embodiment, the second predetermined interval and the second interval setting are set according to actual needs, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

In this embodiment, the third sub driving method and the fourth sub driving method are sufficient to apply a voltage to the pixel structure in an alternating manner.

For example, referring to FIG. 7, taking 8×12 as an example, the pixel structure includes 8 rows and 12 columns, and the second interval setting is every two pixel structures in the data line direction.

In this way, it is possible to prevent the voltage applied to the pixel structure from being affected by the polarity inversion, thereby avoiding the occurrence of crosstalk and bright and dark lines.

In a specific example, the first gray scale data is considered to be high gray scale data, and the second gray scale data is considered to be low gray scale data, correspondingly, the magnitude of the voltage input to the pixel structure is determined by the gray scale, and the high gray scale voltage corresponding to the high gray scale data is generated, that is, the first driving voltage; a low gray scale voltage corresponding to the low gray scale data, that is, a second driving voltage, It is worth mentioning that the above-mentioned high gray scale and low gray scale represent the relative values of the gray scale sizes of the two groups, and the magnitude of the values is not individually limited.

Embodiment 3

Referring to FIG. 10, FIG. 10 is a schematic structural diagram of a pixel according to an embodiment of the invention. The pixel structure of this embodiment includes: a first sub pixel structure 301 and a first sub pixel structure 302, wherein:

the first sub pixel structure 301 includes a first main electrode 3011 and a first branch electrode 3012, and the first branch electrode 3012 is connected to the first main electrode 3011, an acute intersecting angle between the first branch electrode 3012 and the first main electrode 3011 is a first angle β1;

the second sub pixel structure 302 includes a second main electrode 3021 and a second branch electrode 3022, and the second branch electrode 3022 is connected to the second main electrode 3021, an acute intersecting angle between the second branch electrode 3022 and the second main electrode 3021 is a second angle β2.

In a specific embodiment, the first angle β1 is greater than or equal to 40 degrees and less than 45 degrees, and the second angle β2 is equal to 45 degrees.

In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 11, the first sub pixel structure corresponds to a bright area, and when in a low gray scale (below 32 gray scales), only the first sub pixel structure drives illumination, the second sub pixel structure corresponds to a dark area, and at a high gray scale (above 32 gray scales), the second sub pixel structure also begins to drive illumination.

An acute intersecting angle between the first branch electrode and the first main electrode in the first sub pixel structure is a first angle β1, and the first angle β1 is set to be greater than or equal to 40 degrees and less than 45 degrees. At the same time, the acute intersecting angle between the second branch electrode and the second main electrode in the second sub pixel structure is a second angle β2, and the second angle β2 is set equal to 45 degrees. It can be made that when the low gray scale (for example, the low gray scale is below 32 gray scale), only the first sub pixel structure drives the light, thereby removing the whitening phenomenon which occurs in side view, when the high gray scale (for example, the high gray scale is above 32 gray scales), the second sub pixel structure also starts to drive light, thereby ensuring a high transmittance of the pixel structure, thereby making the display more uniform and improving the display effect.

Preferably, the first angle β1 is 42 degrees.

When the angle β1 between the first branch electrode 3012 and the main electrode of the main electrode is 42 degrees, and the angle β2 between the second branch electrode 3022 and the main electrode is 42 degrees, the effect of removing the whitish phenomenon in side view is best, and the pixel structure can be ensured to have a high transmittance.

In a specific embodiment, referring again to FIG. 10, the first main electrode 3011 is a cross-shaped electrode, and the cross-shaped electrode divides the first sub pixel structure 301 into four first domains, namely, A1, A2, A3, and A4, wherein the A1 domain is adjacent to the A2 domain and the A3 domain. In the above four first domains, the first branch electrodes 3012 in each of the first domains are connected to the first main electrode 3011 to interconnect the electrodes. For one of the four first domains, all of the first branch electrodes 3012 in each first domain have the same tilt direction, that is, the adjacent two first branch electrodes 3012 in any one of the first domains, are parallel to each other.

Taking the A1 domain as an example, the A1 domain relative position is located at the upper left of the first sub pixel structure 301, and the tilt direction of the first branch electrode 3012 in the first domain is also inclined toward the upper left direction.

Preferably, the first branch electrodes 3012 of the adjacent two first domains are not parallel to each other.

That is, taking the A2 domain as an example, the A2 domain relative position is located at the upper right of the first sub pixel structure 301, and the tilt direction of the first branch electrode 3012 in the first domain is also inclined toward the upper right direction. Taking the A3 domain as an example, the A3 domain relative position is located at the lower left of the first sub pixel structure 301, and the tilt direction of the first branch electrode 3012 in the first domain is also inclined toward the lower left direction. Taking the A4 domain as an example, the A4 domain relative position is located at the lower right of the first sub pixel structure 301, and the tilt direction of the first branch electrode 3012 in the first domain is also inclined toward the lower right direction. That is, the orientation of any one of the first branch electrodes 3012 in the A1 domain and the first branch electrode 3012 in the A2 domain is different. That is, the first branch electrode 3012 in the A1 domain is not parallel to the first branch electrode 3012 in the A2 domain. Similarly, the first branch electrode 3012 in the A1 domain is not parallel to the first branch electrode 3012 in the A3 domain. The orientation of the above electrodes can be set to improve the display color shift after voltage application.

In a specific embodiment, the second main electrode 3021 is a cross-shaped electrode, the second main electrode 3021 divides the second sub pixel structure into four second domains, and adjacent two of the second branch electrodes of any one of the second domains are parallel to each other.

The A5 domain is adjacent to the A6 domain and the A7 domain. The second branch electrodes 3022 of each of the four second domains are connected to the second main electrode 3021 to interconnect the electrodes. For one of the four second domains, the inclination directions of all the second branch electrodes 3022 in each second domain are the same, that is, the adjacent two second branch electrodes 3022 in any one of the second domains are parallel to each other.

Taking the A5 domain as an example, the A5 domain relative position is located at the upper left of the second sub pixel structure 302, and the tilt direction of the second branch electrode 3022 of the second domain is also inclined toward the upper left direction.

Preferably, the second branch electrodes 3022 of the adjacent two second domains are not parallel to each other.

Taking the A6 domain as an example, the relative position of the A6 domain is located at the upper right of the second sub pixel structure 302, and the tilt direction of the second branch electrode 3022 of the second domain is also inclined toward the upper right direction. Taking the A7 domain as an example, the relative position of the A7 domain is located at the lower left of the second sub pixel structure 302, and the tilt direction of the second branch electrode 3022 of the second domain is also inclined toward the lower left direction. Taking the A8 domain as an example, the relative position of the A8 domain is located at the lower right of the second sub pixel structure 302, and the tilt direction of the second branch electrode 3022 of the second domain is also inclined toward the lower right direction. That is, the orientation of any one of the second branch electrodes 3022 in the A5 domain and the second branch electrode 3022 of the A6 domain is different. That is, the second branch electrode 3022 in the A5 domain is not parallel to the second branch electrode 3022 in the A6 domain. Similarly, the second branch electrode 3022 in the A5 domain is not parallel to the second branch electrode 3022 in the A7 domain.

In this embodiment, the adjacent two first domains are symmetrically disposed along the first main electrode, and the adjacent two second domains are symmetrically disposed along the second main electrode, which can further improve the whitening phenomenon when viewed from different viewing angles, thereby improving the display effect.

In the embodiment of the invention, the angle between the first branch electrode and the first main electrode in the first sub pixel structure is a first angle β1, and the acute intersecting angle between the second branch electrode and the second main electrode in the second sub pixel structure is a second angle β2. So that in the low gray scale, only the first sub pixel structure drives the light, thereby removing the whitening phenomenon that occurs in side view, at the high gray scale, the second sub pixel structure also starts to drive the light, thereby ensuring a high transmittance of the pixel structure, thereby making the display more uniform and improving the display effect.

Embodiment 6

Referring to FIG. 16, FIG. 16 is a schematic structural diagram of a pixel according to an embodiment of the invention. The pixel structure of this embodiment includes:

a main electrode 601;

a plurality of branch electrodes 602 connected to the main electrode 601;

wherein each of the branch electrodes 602 includes N sub-branch electrodes 6021 connected in sequence.

In a specific embodiment, an acute intersecting angle between the sub-branch electrode and the main electrode is greater than or equal to a first angle and less than or equal to a second angle, wherein N>1 and is a positive integer.

In a specific embodiment, the first angle is greater than or equal to 40 degrees and less than 45 degrees, and the second angle is equal to 45 degrees.

Preferably, the first angle is 42 degrees.

In a specific embodiment, the angle between the sub-branch electrode and the horizontal direction of the main electrode is greater than or equal to the first angle and less than or equal to the second angle.

In a specific embodiment, each of the branch electrodes has a set number of sub-branch electrodes having the same acute intersecting angle as the main electrode. The set quantity group includes a plurality of set numbers, and the set quantity group is greater than or equal to 0 and less than N, and N>1.

Specifically, when the number of the set number group is one, and the set number is equal to 2, it represents that each branch electrode has the same angle of the acute intersecting angle of the two sub-branch electrodes and the main electrode; when the number of set number groups is two, one of the set numbers is equal to 3, and the other set number is equal to 2, which means that each branch electrode has three sub-branch electrodes having the same acute intersecting angle as the main electrode, for example, it is 45°, and the branch electrode also has the same angle of the acute intersecting angle of the other two sub-branch electrodes and the main electrode, for example, 42°.

For example, referring to FIG. 17, the branch electrode 602 is composed of two sub-branch electrodes 6021. The acute intersecting angle between one of the sub-branch electrodes 6021 and the main electrode 601 is θ1, and θ1=45°, and the acute intersecting angle between the other sub-branch electrode 6021 and the main electrode 601 is θ2, and θ2=42°.

For another example, the branch electrode 602 is composed of six sub-branch electrodes 6021, which are a first sub-branch electrode, a second sub-branch electrode, a third sub-branch electrode, a fourth sub-branch electrode, a fifth sub-branch electrode, and a sixth sub-branch electrode, respectively. The first sub-branch electrode, the second sub-branch electrode, the third sub-branch electrode, the fourth sub-branch electrode, the fifth sub-branch electrode, and the sixth sub-branch electrode are sequentially connected. The first sub-branch electrode and the sixth sub-branch electrode are also connected to the main electrode 601, respectively. In one embodiment, the number of set number groups is one, and the set number is equal to two, that is, the acute intersecting angle between the first sub-branch electrode and the third sub-branch electrode and the main electrode 601 is the same, both are 45°, the acute intersecting angle between the second sub-branch electrode and the main electrode 601 is 44°, the acute intersecting angle between the fourth sub-branch electrode and the main electrode 601 is 43°, the acute intersecting angle between the fifth sub-branch electrode and the main electrode 601 is 42°, the acute intersecting angle between the sixth sub-branch electrode and the main electrode 601 is 41°. In another embodiment, the number of set quantity groups is two, one of which is equal to 3 and the other is equal to 2, that is, the acute intersecting angle between the first sub-branch electrode, the third sub-branch electrode, and the fifth sub-branch electrode and the main electrode 601 is the same, both being 45°. The acute intersecting angle between the second sub-branch electrode and the fourth sub-branch electrode and the main electrode 601 is the same, both being 42°, and the acute intersecting angle between the sixth sub-branch electrode and the main electrode 601 is 41°.

When the acute intersecting angle between the partial of the sub-branch electrodes and the main electrode in a pixel structure is at a first angle, and at the same time, an acute intersecting angle between the other sub-branch electrodes and the main electrode is a second angle, the whitening phenomenon occurring in the side view is solved. Moreover, while ensuring the removal of the whitish phenomenon, the pixel structure can be ensured to have a high transmittance, thereby making the display more uniform and improving the display effect.

The main electrode 601 in the embodiment is strip-shaped, and the two sides of the main electrode 601 are branch electrodes 602, and each branch electrode 602 is also strip-shaped, and is connected to the main electrode 601. A slit is formed between the gaps between each adjacent two branch electrodes 602 and extends to an edge position of the pixel structure, which is generally referred to as an alignment slit.

In a specific embodiment, the main electrode is a cross-shaped electrode, the main electrode divides the pixel structure into four domains, and adjacent two branch electrodes in any one of the domains are parallel to each other.

In a specific embodiment, the adjacent two domains are symmetrical along the cross-shaped electrode.

In a specific embodiment, see FIG. 18, the main electrode is a cross-shaped electrode, and the cross-shaped electrode divides the pixel structure into four domains, namely, A1, A2, A3, and A4, wherein the A1 domain is adjacent to the A2 domain and the A3 domain, and the A4 domain is adjacent to the A2 domain and the A3 domain. In the above four domains, the branch electrodes in each of the domains are connected to the main electrode 601 to interconnect the electrodes. And the A1 domain and the A2 domain are symmetric along the longitudinal axis of the cross-shaped electrode, and the A1 domain and the A3 domain are symmetric along the horizontal axis of the cross-shaped electrode. The A4 domain and the A2 domain are symmetric along the horizontal axis of the cross-shaped electrode, and the A4 domain and the A3 domain are symmetric along the longitudinal axis of the cross-shaped electrode. The symmetry of the adjacent two domains along the cross-shaped electrode can further improve the whitening phenomenon which occurs in side view, and can further improve the transmittance of the pixel structure.

In a specific embodiment, referring again to FIG. 18, for one of the four domains, the inclination directions of all the branch electrodes in each domain are the same, that is, the adjacent two branch electrodes in any one of the domains are parallel to each other.

Taking the A1 domain as an example, the relative position of the A1 domain is located at the upper left of the pixel structure, and the tilt direction of the branch electrodes in the domain is also inclined toward the upper left direction.

Preferably, the branch electrodes in the adjacent two domains are not parallel to each other.

That is, taking the A2 domain as an example, the relative position of the A2 domain is located at the upper right of the pixel structure, and the tilt direction of the branch electrode in the domain is also inclined toward the upper right direction. Taking the A3 domain as an example, the relative position of the A3 domain is located at the lower left of the pixel structure, and the tilt direction of the branch electrode in the domain is also inclined toward the lower left direction. Taking the A4 domain as an example, the relative position of the A4 domain is located at the lower right of the pixel structure, and the tilt direction of the branch electrode in the domain is also inclined toward the lower right direction. That is to say, the orientation of any one of the branch electrodes in the A1 domain is different from that of any one of the A2 domains, that is, the branch electrodes in the A1 domain are not parallel to the branch electrodes in the A2 domain. Similarly, the branch electrodes in the A1 domain are not parallel to the branch electrodes in the A3 domain.
