A liquid crystal display device includes a first glass substrate, a second glass substrate, a first liquid crystal layer disposed between the first glass substrate and the second glass substrate, a third glass substrate, a fourth glass substrate, a second liquid crystal layer disposed between the third glass substrate and the fourth glass substrate, a first polarizing plate formed on the first glass substrate, a second polarizing plate formed on the third glass substrate, and a bonding layer disposed between the first glass substrate and the third glass substrate. In planar view, the bonding layer is disposed outside the first polarizing plate and the second polarizing plate, a surface on the bonding layer bonds to the first glass substrate, and a surface on the bonding layer bonds to the third glass substrate.

Liquid crystal display device

A liquid crystal display device is disclosed utilizing two or more display panels stacked on top of each other. In a dual panel configuration, the first display panel may be comprised of color pixels and the second display panel may be comprised of contrast pixels. The color pixel in the first display panel has a corresponding contrast pixel in the second display panel wherein said contrast pixel is larger in terms of length and in size than the corresponding color pixel. The liquid crystal display device may also switch to a mode that uses an expansion method of contrast pixels to reduce image displacement. Further disclosed is a configuration where the relative position of the first display panel and the second display panel may be adjusted to align the corresponding color and contrast pixels when viewing the display in oblique angles.

A liquid crystal display device includes: a first display panel; and a second display panel opposing to the first display panel. Each of the first and second display panel includes a plurality of source lines, a plurality of gate lines, a plurality of thin film transistors, and a plurality of pixel electrodes electrically connected to corresponding one of the thin film transistors. In a second display panel, at least two thin film transistors are electrically connected to a same second source line and a same second gate line.

Liquid crystal display

A device capable of switching between an image display state and a mirror state is provided. The device includes an image display portion and a mirror portion. The image display portion emits image light for displaying a desired image and includes a display panel. The mirror portion is superposed on the image display portion and can switch between an image transmittance state for transmitting image light and a mirror state for reflecting outside light. The mirror portion includes a liquid crystal layer disposed between a first glass substrate and a second glass substrate and a reflective polarization layer adhered to the second glass substrate. A reflective enhancement layer separate from the reflective polarization layer is disposed between the display panel and the liquid crystal layer and has a refractive index that is different from the refractive index of the second glass substrate.

Dual image and mirror display device

A curved dual-panel electronic display device including a back display panel having a curved shape and a plurality of pixels and a front display panel having a curved shape and a plurality of pixels. The front display panel back display panel being stacked and curved such that the outer surface of the front display has convex shape. A first pixel from the front display panel overlaps with a second pixel from a second display panel in a normal view, and a length of the first pixel in a direction of the curve of the front display panel is larger than the length of the second pixel in a length direction of the curve of the back display panel.

Pixel configuration for a curved dual-panel electronic display device

A display device includes a plurality of driving circuits, a plurality of terminals formed in each of the plurality of driving circuits, a plurality of signal lines connected to the plurality of terminals, a plurality of pixel electrodes, each of the plurality of pixel electrodes connected to each of the plurality of signal lines; and a switch configured to change a connection mode between the plurality of terminals and the plurality of signal lines. The plurality of signal lines includes a first line, a second line and a third line arrayed in this order. The plurality of terminals includes a first terminal. The switch, configured to change from a first connection mode to a second connection mode, the first terminal connecting the first line and the second line in the first connection mode, and the first terminal connecting the second line and the third line in the second connection mode.

Display device

A display device includes a primary display area which comprises a first display area and a second display area which is unique from the first display area, a control unit configured to display an image in the primary display area, an image signal generating unit configured to generate display data based on externally input image data for a single image. The image signal generating unit comprises a memory which stores display-position information indicating a display location of a first image displayed in the primary display area. The display data comprises first and second display data to be displayed in the first display area and the second display area, respectively. The first display data is generated based on the externally input single image data and the display-position information. The control unit is configured to cause a first image to be displayed in the first display area based on the first display data.
