Publication number: 20080036944Abstract: Provided is an in-plane response-type liquid-crystal display device having a sufficiently high contrast ratio enough to display high-quality images. The device is free from the problem of light leak to be caused by spacers, and is free from the problem of rough surface appearances. In the device, the surface of each spacer is coated with a thermoplastic polymer prepared through graft polymerization of a molecular compound having a vinyl group or a polymerization initiator, with one or more polymerizable monomers. The functional groups existing in the surface of each spacer are bonded to the alignment layers adjacent to the spacers via van der Waals bonding or hydrogen bonding, whereby the spacers are fixed onto the orientation film on at least one of the electrode substrate and the color filter substrate constituting the device. The bonds are extremely small, and the region around the spacers through which light will leak is much reduced.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2007Publication date: February 14, 2008Applicant: KABUSHIKI KAISHA ADVANCED DISPLAYInventor: Yasuhiro Morii

Patent number: 7098969Abstract: The widths of those portions of a semiconductor layer 5 and a drain line 6a overlapping with it which cross an edge line of a gate electrode 2 are made smaller than the channel width of a thin-film transistor.

Patent number: 6980192Abstract: An integrated circuit including a liquid crystal display has a multi-port data output section from which output signals are arranged with respect to a data input signal. Points of changing the signals with respect to a time base are set with time delays that lag behind one another during one period of a reference internal clock signal to reduce the number of simultaneous changes of output signals. The electromagnetic field noise is reduced by a LCD driver when display data are transferred from a LCD timing controller to a source drive IC. The driver includes TFT drive and display timing control circuits that transfer red, green and blue color display data formed of plural bits to the TFT drive circuit for each bit unit formed of plural bits, optionally selected from each of the color display data. A delay unit in the display timing control circuit delays the transfer timing among bit units. A dedicated IC supplies image data to a source driver IC that drives a display section.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 1999Date of Patent: December 27, 2005Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Advanced DisplayInventors: Tatsuya Matsumura, Kazuo Aoki, Kenji Gondo

Patent number: 6805468Abstract: A prism member is interposed between an LED board and a light incidence surface of a light guide plate. The prism member includes a prism sheet consisting of minute prisms that are arranged along the LED board and that have a function of refracting light that is emitted from each LED and thereby inputting, to the light incidence surface, refracted light that is scattered to both sides in the longitudinal direction of the light incidence surface. As a result, chrominance or luminance unevenness can be prevented even if the distance between the LED board and the light incidence surface is short.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2002Date of Patent: October 19, 2004Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Advanced DisplayInventors: Atsushi Itoh, Ikuo Ogo, Shigeru Yachi
