  • Publication number: 20170076679
    Abstract: A display device is provided. A driver provides at least a scan signal according to a vertical synchronization signal and provides at least a positive data signal and at least a negative data signal according to a horizontal synchronization signal. A pixel of a display panel receives the positive or negative data signal. The vertical synchronization signal has three successive rising edges to determine the first frame period including a first disable period and a second frame period including a second disable period. The first and second frame periods determine the cycle. In the cycle, the pixel receives the positive data signal during a first receiving and holding period, and receives the negative data signal during a second receiving and holding period. The first or second receiving and holding period is not equal to half of the sum of the first and second disable periods.

  • Patent number: 8802358
    Abstract: A method of forming an alignment film is provided. A photosensitive polymer material is provided, wherein the photosensitive polymer material defines a first pixel area and a second pixel area respectively defining a first sub-pixel area and the second sub-pixel area. In a first exposure, the photosensitive polymer material is irradiate by a first exposure light and a second exposure light to form a first alignment portion and a second alignment portion with different alignment directions in the first sub-pixel of the first pixel area and the second sub-pixel of the second pixel area respectively. In a second exposure, the photosensitive polymer material is irradiated with the first exposure light and the second exposure light to form a third alignment portion and a fourth alignment portion with different alignment directions in the first sub-pixel of the second pixel area and the second sub-pixel of the first pixel area respectively.

  • Patent number: 8436969
    Abstract: A photo alignment process and a liquid crystal display using the same are provided. The photo alignment process includes the following steps. A photo alignment material layer is formed on a substrate. The photo alignment material layer is irradiated by a linearly polarized light. A surface of the photo alignment material layer is a first plane. A wave vector of the linearly polarized light is a K vector. A second plane is constructed from a normal vector of the first plane and the K vector. A polarization direction of the linearly polarized light is neither perpendicular nor parallel to the second plane.
