Abstract:
An area-division type transflective active-matrix liquid crystal display (LCD) (20). In the LCD cell (200) the thin film transistors (TFTs) (216) are situated on the upper substrate (212) facing the viewer whereas the lower substrate (202) facing the backlight (BL) (260) has the structured reflector (201). The reflector consists of two types of reflecting elements in each pixel: a first element with an uneven surface (201b) and a second element with a smooth surface (201a). In reflective mode, external light (L1) is reflected from the first element (201b) and in transmissive mode, light (L0) from the BL (260) which does not pass between the reflecting elements is reflected back towards the BL from the smooth underside of the second elements (201a, figure 2). In this way, light from the BL (260) is more efficiently utilised (light recycling). There is no polariser (104a) or quarter-wave plate (106) situated between the BL (102) and the lower substrate (112) as in conventional devices (which generally have the active elements (TFT) located on the lower substrate) (10, figure 1). Instead, an internal polariser (230) is arranged inside the cell on the lower substrate (202). This arrangement omits the quarter-wave plate (106) and allows for light-recycling. Colour filter layers (204R,G,B) are provided on the second reflective elements (201a) but not on the first ones (204b). The uneven surface of the first reflective elements (204b) conforms to irregularities on an underlying polymer layer (203). The internal polariser (230) or alternatively an optical compensation layer (250) is arranged on an overcoat layer (205) covering the CF (204R,G,B). A common electrode (206) is located either below or above the polarising (230) or compensating layers (250). The compensating layers (250) are structured and are arranged over the first reflecting elements (201b). The device may be used in flat panel display systems.
