高透过率共面转换液晶显示器

我们开发了一种在同一个基板上使用特殊电极设计的高透过率共面转换(HT-IPS)液晶显示器。这种特殊的电极构造在电极组之间产生实际的水平电场,在电极组区域内的边缘电场具有较高水平场成份。上半部分类似于IPS模式,而下半部分类似于边缘场转换(FFS)模式。HT-IPS模式显示出了很高的透过率大于扭曲向列相(TN)模式的90%],同时,无论使用正性或负性各向异性的液晶材料,液晶盒都具有宽视角。此外,我们对比了相同条件下HT-IPS与IPS、FFS盒的光电特性。

High Transmittance In-Plane Switching Liquid Crystal Displays

We have developed a high-transmittance in-plane switching (HT-IPS) liquid crystal display (LCD) using special electrode design on the same substrate. The featured electrode configuration generates substantial horizontal electric fields between the electrode groups, and fringe fields with rich horizontal components within the regions of electrode groups. The former is similar to the IPS mode and the latter is similar to the fringe-field switching (FFS) mode. The HT-IPS mode exhibits a high transmittance ( 90% of twisted nematic (TN) mode), as well as wide viewing angle for cells using both positive and negative dielectric anisotropy LC materials. In addition, we also compare the electro-optical performance of the HT-IPS with IPS and FFS cells under the same conditions.
