Abstract:
A liquid crystal display panel including a first display substrate, a second display substrate coupled to and spaced apart from the first display substrate, and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first and second display substrates. The first and second display substrates include inorganic layers containing an inorganic silicon-based material. The liquid crystal layer includes alignment molecules vertically aligned with respect to the inorganic layers, and liquid crystal molecules vertically aligned between the inorganic layers. A manufacturing method of the liquid crystal display panel includes surface-treating the inorganic layers to vertically align the liquid crystal molecules.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display (LCD) device comprises a first substrate, a second substrate disposed to face the first substrate, a liquid crystal layer which is disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate and which includes multiple liquid crystal molecules, and a self-alignment layer formed between the first substrate and the liquid crystal layer, the self-alignment layer comprising a vertical alignment additive having a molecular structure having a hydrophilic group and a polymerized group formed in both ends of a core molecule, wherein a major axis of the vertical alignment additive is at an angle less than about 90° with respect to a surface of the first substrate.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display is provided. The liquid crystal display includes a pair of substrates; and a pixel electrode and a common electrode provided on the pair of substrates and facing each other. The pixel electrode includes: a cross pattern at a center thereof; a plate electrode surrounding the cross pattern; and a plurality of minute branch electrodes extending in a diagonal direction outward from the plate electrode. A partial extension structure of the plate electrode is formed in at least a partial boundary region located between the plate electrode and the plurality of minute branch electrodes.
Abstract:
A display device includes a first substrate, a first alignment layer disposed on the first substrate, a second substrate, a second alignment layer disposed on the second substrate, and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the first and second alignment layers and having liquid crystal molecules. At least one of the first and second alignment layers includes an initial alignment layer and a pretilting layer including a self-assembled monolayer disposed on the initial alignment layer.
Abstract:
A display apparatus includes a display panel, a polarizing plate, and a patterned retarder. The display panel includes a first substrate including a signal line and a pixel. A second substrate faces the first substrate. An image display device is disposed between the first and second substrates. The first substrate is disposed in a position to which external light is incident. The polarizing plate is disposed above the first substrate of the display panel. The patterned retarder is disposed between the polarizing plate and the signal line. The patterned retarder retards the external light such that the external light reflected by the signal line does not pass through the polarizing plate.
