Patent number: 8848117Abstract: A display apparatus includes a shutter panel and a display panel that alternately displays a left-eye image and a right-eye image in a 3D mode. The shutter panel includes dual-frequency liquid crystals in which a polarity of dielectric constant anisotropy is changed according to a frequency of the driving voltage to selectively delay a phase of the left-eye image or the right-eye image, which pass through the dual-frequency liquid crystals. The dual-frequency liquid crystals have a fast response speed to the low voltage, and thus a cross-talk phenomenon between the left-eye image and the right-eye image may be prevented.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2012Date of Patent: September 30, 2014Assignee: Samsung Display Co., Ltd.Inventors: Gak Seok Lee, Jaehyoung Park, Kichul Shin, Youn Hak Jeong, Tae Kwon Jung, Haksun Chang
