20140125905 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE - A liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal composition, a thin film transistor substrate as an insulation substrate on which a thin film transistor for controlling the orientation of the liquid crystal composition is provided, and a color filter substrate which seals the liquid crystal composition between itself and the thin film transistor substrate and controls a wavelength region of the transmitted light. The thin film transistor substrate includes a projection part extending from the thin film transistor substrate to the color filter substrate side, and a wall-like electrode on a wall surface of the projection part, which is one electrode for controlling the orientation of the liquid crystal composition. An insulation film and an orientation film are sequentially laminated on the wall-like electrode continuously from a surface parallel to a substrate surface. | 05-08-2014 |
20140307209 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE - A high-definition and high-contrast liquid crystal display device having a high aperture ratio without light leakage around a columnar spacer is provided. The liquid crystal display device of a horizontal electric field type includes a TFT substrate with a pixel electrode and a common electrode, a color filter substrate with a color filter, a columnar spacer interposed between the substrates, and a liquid crystal layer arranged between the substrates. A liquid crystal alignment film formed between the substrates is a photo-alignment film. The columnar spacer, formed on the color filter substrate or the TFT substrate, has a wall-like shape and an inclined surface extending in a direction parallel to or perpendicular to a direction in which the liquid crystal is initially aligned. | 10-16-2014 |
20140307212 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE - A pixel electrode formed into a slit structure with striped electrodes opposed to each other for a zero rubbing angle can provide fast response since rotational directions of the liquid crystals become opposite at both sides of the slit in the striped electrodes. The electrode structure, however, poses a problem of low transmittance. | 10-16-2014 |
20150055043 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE - In an IPS mode liquid crystal display device, a counter electrode is formed flat on a first insulating film. A second insulating film is formed in the peripheral portion of the counter electrode. A third insulating film is formed so as to cover the counter electrode and the second insulating film. A pixel electrode is formed on the third insulating film. The second and third insulating films are present between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode in the periphery of the pixel. The third insulating film is present between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode in the portion other than the peripheral portion of the pixel. An electric field between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode is smaller in the periphery of the pixel than in the vicinity of the center of the pixel, to prevent the occurrence of a domain in the periphery of the pixel. | 02-26-2015 |
20150055070 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE - A TFT substrate and a counter substrate are bonded via a seal material. Alignment films are applied to entire surfaces of the TFT substrate and the counter substrate so as to realize even thickness of the alignment film. This allows a display region to be formed up to the area around the seal material. The alignment film is photo-alignment processed. An organic film formed of the material which is not photo-aligned is interposed between the alignment film and the seal material. High bonding strength between the organic film and the seal material improves reliability of a seal portion as well as reduces a frame region. | 02-26-2015 |
20150062515 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE - The invention provides a liquid crystal display device which is highly reliable even with a slim frame area. Ina liquid crystal display device having a display area and a frame area, the frame area includes, in an area close to the display area, a flat portion where an organic insulation film, a transparent conductive film, and an alignment film are stacked in this order and, in an area away from the display area, a groove structure formed in the organic insulation film, the groove structure being continuous surrounding the display area. The organic insulation film is less wettable than the transparent conductive film by the alignment film ink. | 03-05-2015 |
20150062520 | ORIENTATION FILM MATERIALS AND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE USING IT - Various layer separation states are generated by the combination of a polyamide acid ester and a polyamide acid and a long residual image characteristic cannot be further improved merely by combining them. A liquid crystal display device comprises a substrate, a liquid crystal layer, and an orientation film placed between the substrate and the liquid crystal layer. The orientation film comprises a polyimide precursor having two or more components. In the polyimide precursor, an octanol-water partition coefficient is defined as log P and the difference in log P (Δ log P) between the two components having most distant log Ps is set so as to fall within a prescribed range. | 03-05-2015 |
20150064366 | ORIENTATION FILM MATERIALS AND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE USING IT - The long residual image characteristic of a conventional photo-orientation film material is insufficient. A liquid crystal display device comprises substrates, a liquid crystal layer, an electrode group to apply an electric field to the liquid crystal layer, and orientation control films placed between the substrates and the liquid crystal layer. Each of the orientation control films comprises a polyimide and a polyimide precursor, as materials of the polyimide and the polyimide precursor, at least one kind of first diamines, at least one kind of second diamines, and a cyclobutane tetracarboxylic dianhydride derivative are contained, and an orientation restraining force is granted by the irradiation of nearly linearly polarized light. | 03-05-2015 |
20150085218 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY PANEL - The present invention provides a high-definition, high-contrast, and high-aperture-ratio liquid crystal display device that prevents light leakage near wall electrodes. There is provided a liquid crystal display device including: two parallel wall electrodes that are disposed on the both sides of a pixel; an opposite electrode that is disposed in the middle between the two parallel wall electrodes; and a photo-alignment film, wherein the initial alignment direction of liquid crystal of the photo-alignment film is substantially parallel to or orthogonal to the stretching direction of the two parallel wall electrodes, and the opposite electrode is inclined only by a predetermined bias angle relative to the initial alignment direction of liquid crystal. | 03-26-2015 |
