DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240255811 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE

The display device described in the patent application consists of two substrates that allow visible light to pass through, light emitting pixels, a liquid crystal layer, a first electrode that reflects visible light, and second to fourth electrodes that transmit visible light. The light emitting pixels emit light independently, and the liquid crystal layer is situated between the two substrates. The first electrode is positioned between at least one of the light emitting pixels and the liquid crystal layer. The second electrode is located between the liquid crystal layer and the first substrate without overlapping the first electrode in plan view. The third electrode is positioned between the liquid crystal layer and the second substrate while overlapping the first electrode in plan view. The fourth electrode is located between the liquid crystal layer and the second substrate while overlapping the second electrode in plan view.

  • Light emitting pixels emit light independently
  • Liquid crystal layer separates the two substrates
  • First electrode reflects visible light
  • Second electrode is positioned without overlapping the first electrode
  • Third electrode overlaps the first electrode in plan view
  • Fourth electrode overlaps the second electrode in plan view

Potential Applications: - High-resolution displays - Consumer electronics - Automotive displays

Problems Solved: - Enhanced visibility and image quality - Efficient light emission control

Benefits: - Improved display performance - Energy-efficient technology

Commercial Applications: - High-definition televisions - Smartphones and tablets - Automotive infotainment systems

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the liquid crystal layer contribute to the display device's functionality? 2. What advantages do the independently emitting light pixels offer in terms of display quality and performance?


Original Abstract Submitted

a display device according to the present disclosure includes first and second substrates transmitting visible light, light emitting pixels, a first internal layer, a liquid crystal layer, a first electrode reflecting visible light, and second to fourth electrodes transmitting visible light. the light emitting pixels independently emit light. the liquid crystal layer is located between the first and second substrates. the first electrode is located between at least one of the light emitting pixels and the liquid crystal layer. the second electrode is located between the liquid crystal layer and the first substrate without overlapping the first electrode in plan view. the third electrode is located between the liquid crystal layer and the second substrate while overlapping the first electrode in plan view. the fourth electrode is located between the liquid crystal layer and the second substrate while overlapping the second electrode in plan view.
