Abstract

According to an aspect, a display device includes: a liquid crystal display panel including a display region in which pixels are arranged, an electro-optical device, and a control circuit. The electro-optical device includes a first substrate including a first electrode, a second substrate including a second electrode, and a liquid crystal layer. The control circuit is configured to operate the electro-optical device in one of a first mode in which a potential difference between the first and second electrodes is set to be zero and a second mode in which the potential difference between the first and second electrodes is set to be larger than zero. In a case where the liquid crystal display panel displays achromatic white in the pixels, chromaticity of the pixels when the electro-optical device operates in the first mode is equal to that when the electro-optical device operates in the second mode.

Claims (17)

1 . A display device comprising:

a liquid crystal display panel including a display region in which a plurality of pixels are arranged;

an electro-optical device overlapping the liquid crystal display panel in plan view; and

a control circuit, wherein

the electro-optical device includes

a first substrate including a first electrode,

a second substrate including a second electrode facing the first electrode, and

a liquid crystal layer positioned between the first electrode and the second electrode,

the control circuit is configured to operate the electro-optical device in one of a first mode in which a potential difference between the first electrode and the second electrode is set to be zero and a second mode in which the potential difference between the first electrode and the second electrode is set to be larger than zero, and

in a case where the liquid crystal display panel displays achromatic white in the pixels, chromaticity of the pixels when the electro-optical device operates in the first mode is equal to chromaticity of the pixels when the electro-optical device operates in the second mode.

2 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

each of the pixels includes a plurality of sub pixels for displaying different colors, and

in a case where a gradation value of one sub pixel among the sub pixels is maximum and gradation values of sub pixels other than the one sub pixel among the sub pixels are zero, a luminance of the pixel when the electro-optical device operates in the first mode is different from a luminance of the pixel when the electro-optical device operates in the second mode.

3 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein

each of the pixels includes a plurality of sub pixels for displaying different colors, and

in at least one sub pixel among the sub pixels, a voltage corresponding to a maximum gradation value when the electro-optical device operates in the first mode is different from a voltage corresponding to a maximum gradation value when the electro-optical device operates in the second mode.

4 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein chromaticity of each of the pixels is represented by coordinates in an xy chromaticity diagram of the CIE 1931 color space.
