Liquid-crystal display device
View Patent ↗A liquid-crystal display (LCD) device improves the performance of preventing the elution of impurity contained in the light-shielding layer (and the color layer) of the monochrome or color filter into the liquid crystal, thereby preventing defective operations of the LCD device (e.g., displaying defect) caused by impurity existing in the liquid crystal. The LCD device includes the protection layer made of a transparent organic resin, which satisfies at least one of a condition (a) that the transparent organic resin has a cross-link density of 70% or greater, and a condition (b) that the transparent organic resin has a Vickers hardness of 50 kgf/mm 2 or greater. Preferably, an amount of internal impurity of the filter is 3 ng/cm 2 or less. It is preferred that at least one selected from the group consisting of an acrylic resin, a styrene resin, and a polyimide resin is used as a base or matrix material of the transparent organic resin.
1. A color liquid-crystal display (LCD) device comprising:
a substrate;
a color filter coupled with the substrate in such a way that a space is formed between the filter and the substrate;
a liquid crystal confined in the space;
the filter having a color layer, a light-shielding layer, and a protection layer;
the protection layer protecting the color layer and the light-shielding layer; and
the protection layer being made of a transparent organic resin satisfying at least one of a condition (a) that the transparent organic resin has a cross-link density of 70% or greater, and a condition (b) that the transparent organic resin has a Vickers hardness of 50 kgf/mm 2 or greater.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein an amount of internal impurity of the filter is 3 ng/cm 2 or less.
3. The devise according to claim 1 , wherein at least one selected from the group consisting of an acrylic resin, a styrene resin, and a polyimide resin is used as a base or matrix material of the transparent organic resin.
4. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the device is operated in an (In-Plane Switching) IPS mode.
5. A monochrome liquid-crystal display (LCD) comprising:
a substrate;
a monochrome filter coupled with the substrate in such a way that a space is formed between the filter and the substrate;
a liquid crystal confined in the space;
the filter having a light-shielding layer and a protection layer for protecting the light-shielding layer; and
the protection layer being made of a transparent organic resin satisfying at least one of a condition (a) that the transparent organic resin has a cross-link density of 70% or greater, and a condition (b) that the transparent organic resin has a Vickers hardness of 50 kgf/mm 2 or greater.
6. The device according to claim 5 , wherein an amount of internal impurity of the filter is 3 ng/cm 2 or less.
7. The device according to claim 5 , wherein at least one selected from the group consisting of an acrylic resin, a styrene resin, and a polyimide resin is used as a base or matrix material of the transparent organic resin.
8. The device according to claim 5 , wherein the device is operated in an (In-Plane Switching) IPS mode.
