The liquid crystal display device 900 includes a backlight module 910, a display panel 920, a first polarizer 930, and a second polarizer 940. The backlight module _ 910 has a light emitting surface 910a, and the backlight module 910 includes a light emitting element 911. The light emitting element 911 is used to provide a light source.

The modulation liquid crystal layer 9 is disposed between the first substrate 117 and the second substrate 118. The common electrode film 117a and the transistor 118c are used to control the liquid crystal turning of the modulation liquid crystal layer Π9 such that each modulation region 116a corresponds to the modulation direction C1 or C2. As shown in Fig. 4, after the first polarized light L11 passes through the modulation element 116, a plurality of second polarized lights 1^12 are formed. The second polarized lights L12 correspond to the first modulation direction C1 or the second modulation direction C2, respectively. _ As shown in Fig. 3, wherein the modulation element 116 corresponds to a 1/2 wavelength phase difference. When the light source passes through the polarizing element 112, the first polarized light L11 of the line-biased state is formed. Then, after the first polarized light L11 of the linearly polarized state passes through the 1/2 wavelength phase difference modulation element 116, the second polarized light L12 of the line-polarized state is still formed. As shown in FIG. 3, since the second polarized light L12 corresponding to the first modulation direction C1 is perpendicular to the first polarization axis C130, the second polarized light L12 corresponding to the first modulation direction C1 cannot pass through the first polarized light. Board 130. The second polarized light L12 corresponding to the second modulation direction C2 is parallel to the first polarization axis C130, so that the second polarized light L12 corresponding to the second modulation direction C2 can smoothly pass through the first polarizing plate 130. . Referring to Figure 5, a schematic view of the display panel 120 of Figure 3 is shown. The display panel 120 includes a color filter substrate 121, a thin film transistor substrate 122, and a 'display liquid crystal layer 123.

200813924 W3141PA -其中三個晝素120a ’例如是紅色子畫素(Sub-pixel) R、 綠色子晝素G及藍色子晝素B。 如第3圖所示,由於對應於第一調變方向[I之第一 偏振光L12無法穿越第一偏光板130,且對應於第二調變 方向C2之第二偏振光L12可順利穿越第—偏光板丨加。= 此,顯示面板120之各個晝素120a所接收到的光源亮度 不完全相同。 此外,溥膜電晶體基板12 2驅動顯示液晶層12 3之液 ⑩ 晶分子旋轉後,對應於第二調變方向C2之第二偏振光L12 更可穿越第二偏光板140。其中,對應於第二調變方向C2 之第二偏振光L12穿越第二偏光板140之多寡,決定於顯 示液晶層之液晶分子旋轉的程度。 藉此’當某一畫素12 0 a欲呈現較暗之畫面亮度時, 透過調變方向C1或C2的控制,即可使射入晝素120a之 光源的亮度較低,而呈現出較暗之晝面亮度。當某一晝素 120a欲呈現較亮之畫面亮度時,透過調變方向C1或C2的 φ 控制,即可使射入晝素120a之光源的亮度較高,而呈現 出較亮之晝面亮度。因此,整個晝面所呈現之亮暗對比度 相當地高。 請同時參照第6圖及第3圖,第6圖繪示依照本發明 之顯示方法的主要步驟流程圖。本發明之顯示方法至少包 括以下之步驟:首先,在第6圖之步驟S1中,控制各調 變方向C1或C2,以使調變方向C1或C2不完全相同。接 著,在第6圖之步驟S2中,點亮背光模組110之光源, 12200813924 W3141PA - Three of the elements 120a' are, for example, a red sub-pixel R, a green sub-pixel G, and a blue sub-vitamin B. As shown in FIG. 3, since the first polarized light L12 corresponding to the first modulation direction [I cannot pass through the first polarizing plate 130, and the second polarized light L12 corresponding to the second modulation direction C2 can smoothly cross the first - Polarized plates are added. = Therefore, the brightness of the light source received by each of the pixels 120a of the display panel 120 is not exactly the same. In addition, after the 溥 film transistor substrate 12 2 drives the liquid crystal layer of the liquid crystal layer 12 to rotate, the second polarized light L12 corresponding to the second modulation direction C2 can pass through the second polarizing plate 140. The amount of the second polarized light L12 corresponding to the second modulation direction C2 passing through the second polarizing plate 140 is determined by the degree of rotation of the liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer. Therefore, when a certain pixel is intended to exhibit a darker picture brightness, the brightness of the light source entering the element 120a can be made lower by the control of the modulation direction C1 or C2. The brightness of the face. When a certain pixel 120a wants to display a brighter picture brightness, the brightness of the light source entering the element 120a can be made higher by the φ control of the modulation direction C1 or C2, and the brightness of the brighter surface is presented. . Therefore, the brightness contrast of the entire face is quite high. Please refer to FIG. 6 and FIG. 3 at the same time. FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing the main steps of the display method according to the present invention.
