Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of liquid crystal display devices, and more specifically, to a fast-response black-and-white reflective liquid crystal display and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Thin-film transistor-liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCDs) include transmissive liquid crystal displays and reflective liquid crystal displays. Transmissive liquid crystal displays were developed first, including a backlight built into the back of the display and a display electrode using a transparent conductive material such as ITO (Indiµm Tin Oxides). However, the backlight used in the transmissive liquid crystal display is the component with the highest power consumption, and must be supplied by a battery, which has the disadvantage of high power consumption. In addition, when the transmissive liquid crystal display is used outdoors, especially in sunlight, it will produce glare, which will reduce the display contrast, so that the image display is not clear. Reflective liquid crystal displays came into being. Its light source is an external natural light source or an artificial light source, so a reflective layer is required to reflect the external light. Traditionally, the display electrode is used as the reflective layer. The material used for the display electrode is a conductive material that reflects the external light, usually metal aluminum. The surface of the display electrode is set to an uneven surface to increase the reflection effect of light.
[0003] Among liquid crystal displays, the traditional twisted nematic (TN) type liquid crystal displays are the most widely used, and most of them are single-area structures. However, the common reflective and transflective liquid crystal displays are mostly RTN (reflective twisted nematic) LCDs and MTN-LCDs (Mixed mode TN-LCDs), which require orthogonal polarizers and compensation films on the outside of the liquid crystal display, which leads to inherent defects in the viewing angle of the transmissive mode. The viewing angle is about 40 degrees on the left and right, and about 30 degrees on the top and bottom. In addition, the contrast is very low, only about 15:1 to 50:1, and the dispersion is poor, so it is difficult to apply it to high-quality products. In addition, the directional friction technology used in the manufacturing process has more problems with static electricity prevention and dust pollution. Therefore, designing a liquid crystal display that can simply and efficiently achieve the needs of power saving and anti-glare has become an urgent problem to be solved in the industry.

[0027] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment, the fast response black and white reflective liquid crystal display comprises a first transparent conductive substrate, a second transparent conductive substrate, a liquid crystal layer 200, a transparent microstructure array, an alignment layer and a primer layer 500. Specifically, the first transparent conductive substrate comprises a first transparent substrate 110 and a first conductive layer 120; the second transparent conductive substrate comprises a second transparent substrate 130 and a second conductive layer 420; the first transparent substrate 110 and the second transparent substrate 130 are arranged relatively spaced apart, the first conductive layer 120 is arranged on the side of the first transparent substrate 110 facing the second transparent substrate 130, and the second conductive layer 420 is arranged opposite to the first conductive layer 120. The liquid crystal layer 200 is located between the first transparent conductive substrate and the second transparent conductive substrate; the liquid crystal cavity of the liquid crystal layer 200 is divided into a plurality of display areas 210, and each display area 210 is filled with cholesteric liquid crystal. The transparent microstructure array is disposed on the first conductive layer 120, and includes a plurality of transparent microstructure units 310 arranged in an array. A transparent microstructure unit 310 is disposed in each display area 210, and the transparent microstructure unit 310 is disposed in a transparent convex shape protruding toward the second conductive layer 420.

[0029] Based on this design, in this embodiment, the fast response black and white reflective liquid crystal display has the following advantages: first, since the fast response black and white reflective liquid crystal display uses cholesteric liquid crystal with its own color as the display material, it can omit components such as polarizers, and also omit the directional rubbing process of the alignment layer, so that the device structure of the liquid crystal display is simpler, the cost is lower and it is ultra-light and thin; secondly, the viewing angle range of the fast response black and white reflective liquid crystal display is more than 160 degrees, the sum of the rising and falling response time during grayscale display is less than 30 milliseconds, and there is no color deviation; thirdly, the transparent microstructure array is used in conjunction with the vertical directional orientation agent on the alignment layer to effectively broaden the reflection spectrum of the cholesteric liquid crystal, thereby achieving a black and white effect. In summary, the fast response black and white reflective liquid crystal display directly uses cholesteric liquid crystal as the display material, and uses a transparent microstructure array composed of multiple transparent microstructure units 310 to make an uneven surface, and then uses the anchoring effect of the vertical directional orientation agent of the alignment layer, so as to have the advantages of broadening the reflection spectrum, widening the viewing angle, low cost, low power consumption and ultra-light and thin.
