Projection-type liquid crystal display apparatus

Abstract: A projection-type liquid crystal display apparatus using liquid crystal cells as light polarizing devices. This apparatus makes a polarization control of one of the two linearly polarized light components perpendicular to each other separated by the polarized light separating device (3) through the first liquid crystal cell (5P) and of the other of the two through the second liquid crystal cell (5S). The liquid crystal cells (5P, 5S) transmit through directly a linearly polarized light component incident upon pixel portions corresponding to bright pixels of an image to be projected on the screen (10), while they transmit through the one incident upon pixel portions corresponding to dark pixels of the image as converting it into the other linearly polarized light component. This apparatus composes the first linearly polarized light penetrating through pixel portions of the first liquid crystal cell (5P) corresponding to bright pixels of the image and the second linearly polarized light penetrating through pixel portions of the second liquid crystal cell (5S) corresponding to the same bright pixels as the above-mentioned bright pixels through a polarized light composing device (7) and projects the composed light on the screen (10) through an optical device (9).

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device using liquid crystal cells as light polarizing elements. 2. Description of the Prior Art A conventional projection-type liquid crystal display apparatus is known which forms an image on a screen from light penetrating through a light valve consisting of a liquid crystal cell and polarizing plates which are attached to its front and back faces, respectively, as a polarizer and an analyzer, as disclosed for example in JP-A-6259919. The conventional projection-type liquid crystal display apparatus, however, has a problem that it cannot form a bright and clear image on a screen, since it utilizes as a projection light only a single component of linearly polarized light penetrating through a polarizing plate out of random polarized light emitted from a light source, on account of its using a light-valve having a polarizing plate attached to the light receiving side of its liquid crystal cell. US-A-4,127,322 discloses an image projection system in which light from a light source is linearly polarized and then modulated by a reflection type liquid crystal light valve that is optically-modulated by an intimately arranged cathode-ray tube (CRT) which supplies the image to be projected. The linearly polarized light is generated by a beam splitter which divides the beam into P and S components. In one embodiment of the system, the S component is wasted and only the P component is modulated. The beam splitter also serves as an analyzer which directs the S component of the reflected light beam, resulting from the modulation by the CRT image, to a projection lens. In another embodiment, both the P and S components of the divided light are utilized, and modulated by respective images corresponding to left and right eye views. The beam splitter then further serves to combine the S component of the reflected P-beam and the P component of the reflected S-beam. It is mentioned that this other embodiment may be modified so as to modulate both CRTs with the same image. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to realise a liquid crystal display device which can provide a bright and clear image. The present invention provides the liquid crystal display device defined by claim 1. The sub-claims 2 to 10 relate to embodiments of the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Fig. 1 is an optical system diagram showing configuration of a projection-type display apparatus of the first embodiment of the invention. In Fig. 1, light emitted from a light source 1 is condensed by a paraboloidal condenser mirror 2 and is emitted toward a polarized light beam splitter 3 used as polarized light separating means. The polarized light beam splitter 3 has a function to separate random polarized light emitted from the light source 1 into a P polarized light component (light penetrating through the polarized light beam splitter 3) and an S polarized light component perpendicular to the P polarized light component (light reflected by the polarized light beam splitter 3). A condenser lens 4P focusing the P polarized light component and a twisted-nematic liquid crystal cell (hereinafter referred to as TN liquid crystal cell) 5P which is the first liquid crystal cell are located in the light path of the P polarized light component penetrating through the polarized light beam splitter 3. The TN liquid crystal cell 5P which has no polarizing plate consists of two display electrode plates forming electrodes and the like on transparent insulating substrates of glass or the like and a liquid crystal layer held between the above-mentioned two display electrode plates which form a matrix of multiple pixel portions, and is provided with a function to change an optical state of each pixel portion according to its own image data (display data of high or low brightness) by means of an active matrix drive or the like. More specifically, when voltage of an effective value greater than a driving threshold of the liquid crystal as display data of high brightness is applied to a portion of the liquid crystal layer corresponding to a pixel portion, liquid crystal molecules in the portion of the liquid crystal layer come into an orientation state in which they transmit therethrough the incident P polarized light component as it is. On the other hand, when voltage of an effective value less than the threshold value as display data of low brightness is applied to a portion of the liquid crystal layer, liquid crystal molecules in this portion of the liquid crystal layer come into a twisted state in which they transmit the incident P polarized light component as rotating it by 90° to convert it into the S polarized light component. The S polarized light component separated by the polarized light beam splitter 3 in the direction perpendicular to the light path of the P polarized light component is reflected by a plane mirror 6 located in its light path, and enters the TN liquid crystal cell 5S which is the second liquid crystal cell through the condenser lens 4S which are located in the light path of that reflected light. These condenser lens 4S and TN liquid crystal cell 5S have respectively the same functions as those of the above-mentioned condenser lens 4P and TN liquid crystal cell 5P. That is to say, the condenser lens 4S focuses the S polarized light component reflected by the plane mirror 6, and the TN liquid crystal cell 5S transmits therethrough, as it is, the S polarized light component incident upon a pixel portion to which voltage of an effective value over a threshold value is applied as display data of high brightness, while it transmits therethrough the S polarized light component incident upon a pixel portion to which voltage of an effective value less than the threshold value is applied as display data of low brightness, as rotating the S polarized light component by 90° to convert it into the P polarized light component. The light which has penetrated through the TN liquid crystal cell 5P enters another polarized light beam splitter 7 which is a polarized light composing means located in its light path, and the light which has penetrated through the TN liquid crystal cell 5S is reflected by the plane mirror 8 and then enters the polarized light beam splitter 7 from the direction perpendicular to the light path of the light from the TN liquid crystal cell 5P. A projection lens 9 and a screen 10 are located in this order on the extension line of the light path of the light which enters the polarized beam splitter 7 after penetrating through the TN liquid crystal cell 5P. In the same way as the above-mentioned polarized light beam splitter 3 for separating light, the polarized light beam splitter 7 has a function to transmit through, as it is, the P polarized light component incident upon it while reflecting the S polarized light component incident upon it. Therefore, the P polarized light component entering from the TN liquid crystal cell 5P is transmitted through the beam splitter 7 toward the screen 10 as it is, and the S polarized light component entering from the TN liquid crystal cell 5S by way of a plane mirror 8 is reflected toward the screen 10. As a result, the polarized light beam splitter 7 has a function to combine these P and S polarized light components to irradiate this composed light toward the screen 10. The length of the light path from the TN liquid crystal cell 5S to the projection lens 9 is set so that it may be equal to the length of the light path from the TN liquid crystal cell 5P to the projection lens 9. The polarized light beam splitters 3 and 7 may be either of plate type or of cube type. Operation of the projection-type display apparatus is described in the following. Random polarized light emitted from the light source 1 is focused by the paraboloidal condenser mirror 2 and enters the polarized light beam splitter 3. The incident light is separated by the polarized light beam splitter 3 into the P and S polarized light components. The P polarized light component enters the TN liquid crystal cell 5P through the condenser lens 4P. Each pixel portion of the TN liquid crystal cell 5P is set, according to its display data, either to an optical state in which the pixel portion transmits through the P polarized light component as it is, or to another optical state in which the pixel portion transmits through the P polarized light component as. rotating it by 90° to convert it into the S polarized light component. That is to say, voltage of an effective value greater than a threshold value is applied to a pixel portion corresponding to a pixel of white level (high brightness) of an image to be projected finally on the screen 10, and the P polarized light component incident upon this pixel portion penetrates through the pixel portion as it is. On the other hand, while voltage of an effective value less than the threshold value is applied to a pixel portion corresponding to a pixel of black level (low brightness) of the image to be projected on the screen 10, the P polarized light component incident upon this pixel portion penetrates through the pixel portion as being converted into the S polarized light component. On the other hand, the S polarized light component separated by the polarized light beam splitter 3 enters the TN liquid crystal cell 5S by way of the plane mirror 6 and the condenser lens 4S. Each pixel portion of the TN liquid crystal cell 5S also is set according to its display data either to an optical state in which the pixel portion transmits through the S polarized light component as it is, or to another optical state in which the pixel portion transmits the S polarized light component as rotating it by 90° to convert it into the P polarized light component. That is to say, voltage of an effective value greater than the threshold value is applied to a pixel portion corresponding to a pixel of white level of the image to be projected finally on the screen 10, and the S polarized light component incident upon this pixel portion penetrates through the pixel portion as it is, while voltage of an effective value less than the threshold value is applied to a pixel portion corresponding to a pixel of black level of the image to be projected on the screen 10, and the S polarized light component incident upon this pixel portion penetrates through the pixel portion as being converted into the P polarized light component. Of the light components entering the polarized light beam splitter 7 from the TN liquid crystal cell 5P, the P polarized light component corresponding to a pixel of white level of an image on the screen 10 penetrates through the polarized light beam splitter 7 and enters the projection lens 9, while the S polarized light component corresponding to a pixel of black level of the image on the screen 10 does not enter the projection lens 9 due to being reflected by the polarized light beam splitter 7. On the other hand, of the light components entering the polarized light beam splitter 7 from the TN liquid crystal cell 5S by way of the plane mirror 8, the S polarized light component corresponding to a pixel of white level of the image on the screen 10 is reflected by the polarized light beam splitter 7 and enters the projection lens 9, while the P polarized light component corresponding to a pixel of black level of the image on the screen 10 does not enter the projection lens 9 due to penetrating through the polarized light beam splitter 7. Therefore, a light composed of the P polarized light component which has penetrated through the TN liquid crystal cell 5P and the S polarized light component which has penetrated through the TN liquid crystal cell 5S is magnified and projected by the projection lens 9 on a pixel of white level of the image on the screen 10. No light is projected on a pixel of black level of the image on the screen 10. In this way, a bright and clear image is enlarged and formed on the screen 10. Fig. 2 is a graph showing relation between effective value of voltage applied to each pixel portion of the TN liquid crystal cells 5P and 5S, and level of brightness of a pixel of an image on the screen 10 corresponding to the pixel portion. Fig. 3 is an optical system diagram showing configuration of a projection-type display apparatus of the second embodiment of the invention. Since a light source 1, paraboloidal condenser mirror 2, polarized light beam splitter 3, condenser lenses 4P and 4S, TN liquid crystal cells 5P and 5S, plane mirrors 6 and 8, and polarized light beam splitter 7 in Figure 3 are located at the same location as the first embodiment shown in Fig. 1, description of their location is omitted here. This embodiment differs from the first embodiment in location of a projection lens 9 and screen 10, where they are located in this order in the direction perpendicular to the light path of light entering the polarized light beam splitter 7 from the TN liquid crystal cell 5P, namely in the direction in which the S polarized light component entering the polarized light beam splitter 7 from the TN liquid crystal cell 5P is reflected. In the TN liquid crystal cell 5P which the P polarized light component enters, voltage of an effective value less than a threshold value is applied to a pixel portion corresponding to a pixel of white level of an image to be projected finally on the screen 10, and the P polarized light component incident upon this pixel portion penetrates through the pixel portion as being converted into the S polarized light component, while voltage of an effective value greater than the threshold value is applied to a pixel portion corresponding to a pixel of black level of the image to be projected on the screen 10, and the P polarized light component incident upon this pixel portion penetrates through the pixel portion as it is. That is to say, in this embodiment, an effective value of voltage applied to each pixel portion of the TN liquid crystal cell 5P is in reverse relation to that in the first embodiment. In the TN liquid crystal cell 5S which the S polarized light component enters, an effective value of voltage applied to each pixel portion of the TN liquid crystal cell 5S is in reverse relation to that in the first embodiment. Voltage of an effective value less than the threshold value is applied to a pixel portion corresponding to a pixel of white level of the image to be projected finally on the screen 10, and the S polarized light component incident upon this pixel portion penetrates through the pixel portion as being converted into the P polarized light component, while voltage of an effective value greater than the threshold value is applied to a pixel portion corresponding to a pixel of black level of the image to be projected on the screen 10, and the S polarized light component incident upon this pixel portion penetrates through the pixel portion as it is. Each function of the other optical components in this system is the same as that of the first embodiment. In this embodiment, of the light components entering the polarized light beam splitter 7 from the TN liquid crystal cell 5P, the S polarized light component corresponding to a pixel of white level of the image on the screen 10 is reflected by the polarized light beam splitter 7 and enters the projection lens 9, while the P polarized light component corresponding to a pixel of black level of the image on the screen 10 does not enter the projection lens 9 due to its penetrating through the polarized light beam splitter 7. On the other hand, of the light components entering the polarized light beam splitter 7 from the TN liquid crystal cell 5S via the plane mirror 8, the P polarized light component corresponding to a pixel of white level of the image on the screen 10 penetrates through the polarized light beam splitter 7 and enters the projection lens 9. while the S polarized light component corresponding to a pixel of black level of the image on the screen 10 does not enter the projection lens 9 due to its being reflected by the polarized light beam splitter 7. Therefore, light composed of the S polarized light component which has penetrated through the TN liquid crystal cell 5P and the P polarized light component which has penetrated through the TN liquid crystal cell 5S is magnified and projected through the projection lens 9 on a pixel of white level of the image on the screen 10. No light is projected on a pixel of black level of the image on the screen 10. In this way, a bright and clear image is enlarged and formed on the screen 10. Fig. 4 is a graph showing relation between effective value of voltage applied to each pixel portion of the TN liquid crystal cells 5P and 5S, and level of brightness of a pixel of an image on the screen 10, corresponding to the pixel portion. Additionally, an image projected on the screen can be colored by forming color filters on the TN liquid crystal cells in the embodiments in Figs. 1 and 3. Fig. 5 is an optical system diagram showing configuration of a projection-type display apparatus of the third embodiment of the invention. This embodiment shows a method which makes it possible not only to obtain a color image on the screen without forming color filters on the TN liquid crystal cells but also to obtain an image of higher resolution on the screen even by using some TN liquid crystal cells of the same resolution as the TN liquid crystal cells used in the embodiments shown in Figs. 1 and 3. Its schematic configuration is similar to that of the embodiment in Figure 1. That is to say, in Fig. 5, random polarized light emitted from a light source 11 is condensed by a paraboloidal condenser mirror 12, is irradiated toward a polarized light beam splitter 13, and is separated into P and S polarized light components by the beam splitter 13. A dichroic mirror 21BP which reflects blue light out of the P polarized light component and transmits the other color light is located in the light path of the P polarized light penetrating through the polarized light beam splitter 13. A dichroic mirror 21GP1 which reflects green light out of the P polarized light component and transmits the other color light (red light) is located in the light path of the light penetrating through the dichroic mirror 21BP. A plane mirror 22P is located in the light path of the blue P polarized light component reflected by the dichroic mirror 21BP. A condenser lens 14BP and TN liquid crystal cell 15BP for blue light are located at the middle of the light path of the light reflected by the plane mirror 22P. A condenser lens 14GP and TN liquid crystal cell 15GP for green light are located at the middle of the light path of the green P polarized light component reflected by the dichroic mirror 21GP1. A condenser lens 14RP and TN liquid crystal cell 15RP for red light are located at the middle of the light path of the red P polarized light component penetrating through the dichroic mirror 21GP1. Each of the TN liquid crystal cells 15BP, 15GP, and 15RP which has no polarizing plate consists of two display electrode plates forming electrodes and the like on transparent insulating substrates of glass or the like and a liquid crystal layer held between the above-mentioned two display electrode plates which form a matrix of multiple pixel portions, and is provided with a function to change an optical state of each pixel portion according to its image data (display data of high or low brightness for blue, green, or red light) by means of an active matrix drive or the like. More specifically, in the case of the TN liquid crystal cell 15BP for blue light, for example, when voltage of an effective value greater than a threshold value for display data of high brightness for blue light is applied to a portion of the liquid crystal layer corresponding to a pixel portion, liquid crystal molecules in the portion of the liquid crystal layer come into an orientation state in which they transmit therethrough the incident blue P polarized light component as it is. On the other hand, when voltage of an effective value less than the threshold value for display data of low brightness for blue light is applied to a portion of the liquid crystal layer corresponding to a pixel portion, liquid crystal molecules in this portion of the liquid crystal layer come into a twisted state in which they transmit the incident blue P polarized light component as rotating it by 90° to convert it into the blue S polarized light component. The other two TN liquid crystal cells 15GP and 15RP also have the same function as mentioned above for the color light which they handle, respectively. A dichroic mirror 21GP2 which reflects green light and transmits the other color light is located at the point of intersection of the light path of the light penetrating through the TN liquid crystal cell 15BP and the light path of the light penetrating through the TN liquid crystal cell 15GP. A plane mirror 23P is located in the light path of the red P polarized light component penetrating through the TN liquid crystal cell 15RP, and a dichroic mirror 21RP which reflects red light and transmits the other color light is located at the point of intersection of the light path of the light reflected by the plane mirror 23P and the light reflected by or penetrating through the dichroic mirror 21GP2. The S polarized light component separated by the polarized light beam splitter 13 is reflected by a plane mirror 16, and a dichroic mirror 21BS which reflects blue light out of this S polarized light component and transmits the other color light is located in the light path of the light reflected by the plane mirror 16. As described below, dichroic mirrors 21GS1, 21GS2, and 21RS, plane mirrors 22S and 23S, condenser lenses 14BS, 14GS and 14RS, and TN liquid crystal cells 15BS, 15GS, and 15RS which respectively have the same function as dichroic mirror 21GP1, 21GP2, and 21RP, plane mirrors 22P and 23P, condenser lenses 14BP, 14GP, and 14RP, and TN liquid crystal cells 15BP, 15GP, and 15RP in an optical system for the P polarized light component are located similarly to the optical system for the P component. Light penetrating through or reflected by the dichroic mirror 21RP enters a polarized light beam splitter 17 for combining light which is located in its light path, while light penetrating through or reflected by the dichroic mirror 21RS is reflected by a plane mirror 18 located in its light path and then enters the polarized light beam splitter 17 from the direction perpendicular to the light path of the light coming from the dichroic mirror 21RP. A projection lens 19 and screen 20 are located in this order on the extension line of the light path of the light penetrating through the dichroic mirror 21RP and entering the polarized light beam splitter 17. In the same way as the polarized light beam splitter 13 for separating light, the polarized light beam splitter 17 has a function to transmit through, as it is, the P polarized light component incident upon it while reflecting the S polarized light component incident upon it. That is to say, the polarized light beam splitter 17 has a function to combine the P polarized light component entering it from the dichroic mirror 21RP and the S polarized light component entering it from the dichroic mirror 21RS through the plane mirror 18 to irradiate the combined light toward the screen 20. The length of the light path from the TN liquid crystal cell 15BP, 15GP, or 15RP to the projection lens 19 is set so that it may be equal to the length of the light path from the TN liquid crystal cell 15BS, 15GS, or 15RS to the projection lens 19, respectively. Operation of the above-mentioned projection-type display apparatus is described in the following. Random polarized light emitted from the light source 11 is condensed by the paraboloidal condenser mirror 12 and enters the polarized light beam splitter 13. The incident light is separated by the polarized light beam splitter 13 into the P and S polarized light components. The P polarized light component is further separated into blue, green, and red light components by the dichroic mirrors 21BP and 21GP1. Of these, the blue P polarized light component enters the TN liquid crystal cell 15BP through the plane mirror 22P and condenser lens 14BP, the green P polarized light component enters the TN liquid crystal cell 15GP through the condenser lens 14GP, and the red P polarized light component enters the TN liquid crystal cell 15RP through the condenser lens 14RP. Each pixel portion of the TN liquid crystal cells 15BP, 15GP, and 15RP is set, according to its display data, either to an optical state in which the pixel portion transmits therethrough the P polarized light component as it is, or to another optical state in which the pixel portion transmits therethrough the P polarized light component as rotating it by 90° to convert it into the S polarized light component. On the other hand, the S polarized light component separated by the polarized light beam splitter 13 is further separated by the dichroic mirrors 21BS and 21GS1 into blue, green, and red light components through the plane mirror 16, and then these separated light components enter the TN liquid crystal cells 15BS, 15GS, and 15RS respectively in the same way as those of the P polarized light component. Each pixel portion of the TN liquid crystal cells 15BS, 15GS, and 15RS is set, according to its display data, either to an optical state in which the pixel portion transmits therethrough the S polarized light component as it is, or to another optical state in which the pixel portion transmits therethrough the S polarized light component as rotating it by 90° to convert it into the P polarized light component. Of the light components entering the polarized light beam splitter 17 from the the dichroic mirror 21RP, the P polarized light component penetrates through the polarized light beam splitter 17 and enters the projection lens 19, while the S polarized light component does not enter the projection lens 19 due to its being reflected by the polarized light beam splitter 17. On the other hand, of the light components entering the polarized light beam splitter 17 from the dichroic mirror 21RS via the plane mirror 18, the S polarized light component is reflected by the polarized light beam splitter 17 and enters the projection lens 19, while the P polarized light component does not enter the projection lens 19 due to its penetrating through the polarized light beam splitter 17. Therefore, light composed of a color light of the P polarized light component and that of the S polarized light component is magnified and projected through the projection lens 19 on a pixel of high brightness of the image on the screen 20. In this way, a bright and clear color image is enlarged and formed on the screen 20. The configuration shown in Figure 5 is based on the embodiment of the invention shown in Figure 1, but an application of the configuration of the embodiment of the invention shown in Figure 3 can also provide a projection-type liquid crystal display apparatus to give a color image of high resolution. The above-mentioned embodiments of the invention show a front projection system in which an image is projected on the front face of the screen 10 or 20, but without limiting to this system the invention can be applied to a rear projection system in which an image is projected on the rear face of the screen 10 or 20 of transparent type. Additionally, a projected image can also be toned in density by varying an effective value of voltage applied to each pixel portion of the TN liquid crystal cells according to its display data.
