Abstract

A display device that includes a first substrate having pixel electrodes; a second substrate having a color filter corresponding to the pixel electrodes to display images; a photo switching element disposed at the first substrate; a red or green color filter corresponding to the photo switching element formed at the second substrate to sense an amount of external light; a driving controller configured to output a driving control signal responsive to the amount of external light sensed by the light sensing unit; and a light generation unit configured to provide the display unit with an internal light controlled by the driving control signal. This photo sensor is well suited to human-eye luminosity and uses external light to determine how much backlight is needed.
