  • Patent number: 8675165
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display unit including a pixel unit and a quasi-isotropic liquid crystal layer with Kerr effect is provided. The pixel unit includes sub-pixel units, each sub-pixel unit at least has a first transmissive region and a second transmissive region. Each sub-pixel unit includes a switch, a pixel electrode, and a common electrode. Each pixel electrode has first stripe patterns. The common electrode has second stripe patterns, wherein the first stripe patterns and the second stripe patterns are arranged alternately. In the first transmissive region, width of each first stripe pattern is L1, while a gap between each first stripe pattern and the corresponding second stripe pattern adjacent thereto is S1. In the second transmissive regions, width of each first stripe pattern is L2, while a gap between each first stripe pattern and the corresponding second stripe pattern adjacent thereto is S2, wherein L1?L2 or S1?S2 or L1/S1?L2/S2.
    Type: Grant
