Elliptical polarized light creates a problem: Polarization and color change in the liquid crystal cell
[0009] In-plane switching mode liquid crystal displays use three compensation film-type coupled polarizing plates formed by laminating two layers with different optical properties on one side of the liquid crystal layer (one isotropic film below and two above Compensation layer), or using a Z-axis alignment film that is difficult to have a large area due to the lower economic efficiency and the necessary shrinking process caused by using a shrink film in the manufacturing process
[0010] Therefore, it is difficult to manufacture a thin product due to the use of a coupled polarizing plate laminated by three compensation films; bending due to changes in temperature or humidity due to the difference in thickness on both sides of the liquid crystal cell; moreover, due to the use of expensive compensation films lower price competitiveness, its use is limited to high-cost in-plane switching mode LCDs

Abstract

The present invention relates to an in-plane switching mode liquid crystal display, and more preciesly, an in-plane switching mode liquid crystal display including an upper polarizing plate, a lower polarizing plate and a liquid crystal cell, designed to have wide viewing angle because the optical properties of the compensation film are determined by changes of the polarization state of liquid crystal alignment on a Poincare Sphere, and the contrast in the inclined visual direction is improved due to the configuration of a slow axis of a first and second compensation films, absorption axis of the polarizer, and the liquid crystal alignment.; The present invention can implement mass production of thin liquid crystal displays with high yield (reducing defect ratio due to foreign substances or impurities) since it is possible to ensure a wide viewing angle with only one sheet of compensation film for the upper polarizing plate and the lower polarizing plate.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an in-plane switching mode liquid crystal display capable of securing a wide viewing angle by improving contrast in oblique viewing directions. Background technique [0002] Liquid crystal displays (LCDs) are widely used as general image displays. Although it has various excellent characteristics, a narrow viewing angle is pointed out as a drawback. [0003] The modes of liquid crystal displays can be classified according to the initial alignment of liquid crystal cells, the structure of electrodes, and the properties of liquid crystals, and the most commonly used modes of liquid crystal displays are twisted nematic (TN) mode, vertical alignment (VA) mode, and in-plane switching ( IPS) mode. [0004] In addition, according to whether it transmits light when no voltage is received, it is divided into normally black mode and normally white mode. According to the area and initial arrangement of the liquid crystal, the VA...
