| 20080304791 | LIGHT SOURCE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME, DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME, AND METHOD FOR DRIVING DISPLAY DEVICE - In a light source device, a row of fibers is provided in which a plurality of optical fibers is arrayed in a single row in parallel fashion separately from each other. A light-direction controller is disposed on one side of the optical fibers, main fibers is disposed above and below the light-direction controller, and a main fiber is disposed at the other end of the row of fibers. Light sources are connected to each of the end portions of the main fibers. Three types of mirrors that mutually differ in direction are formed on the surface of the light-direction controller, light emitted from a main fiber enters the optical fibers by way of a first mirror, and light emitted from a main fiber enters the optical fibers by way of a second mirror. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20100007637 | LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE, AND METHOD AND CIRCUIT FOR DRIVING FOR LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE - A liquid crystal display device includes a display section, an image signal drive circuit, a scan signal drive circuit, a common electrode potential control circuit, and a synchronous circuit. The display section has scan electrodes, image signal electrodes, a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged in a matrix, a plurality of switching elements for transmitting an image signal to the pixel electrodes, and a common electrode. The common electrode potential control circuit changes an electric potential of the common electrode into a pulse shape, after the scan signal drive circuit has scanned all the scan electrodes and the image signal has been transmitted to the pixel electrodes. Otherwise, the image signal is overdriven. Otherwise, torque for returning to a no-voltage-application state is increased. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100194739 | THIN-FILM SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE, DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME, AND METHOD OF DRIVING DISPLAY DEVICE - A thin-film semiconductor device includes a temperature sensor formed of a thin-film semiconductor and sensing a temperature as current, and a current-voltage converter formed of a thin-film semiconductor and having temperature dependence in which its current-voltage characteristic is different from that of the temperature sensor. A temperature sensed by the temperature sensor is converted to a voltage by the current-voltage converter. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20110018847 | Display Apparatus - Provided is a display apparatus capable of reducing the scale of a drive circuit and decreasing the frame. A display area in which pixels are provided in matrix, a scanning line drive circuit for driving scanning lines, and a signal line drive circuit for driving signal lines are provided on a support substrate. The pixel within the display area is constituted with a plurality of dots. Each dot corresponds to a color filter of a certain color. The dot is in a laterally long shape, i.e. in a shape extending in a direction along the scanning lines. In other words, each dot is in a shape extending in parallel with the longitudinal direction of the signal line drive circuit. The color filters are of lateral stripe type, for example. | 01-27-2011 |

| 20110280044 | OPTICAL MEMBER, LIGHT SOURCE APPARATUS, DISPLAY APPARATUS, AND TERMINAL APPARATUS - A planar light source, Fresnel lens sheet, and louver are disposed in the stated order in a light source apparatus. The Fresnel lens sheet deflects and focuses in one dimension light that has entered from the planar light source. The louver is disposed in the optical path of the light emitted from the Fresnel lens sheet, and the directivity of the light can be increased by restricting the traveling direction of the light to the focal direction of the Fresnel lens sheet. The light utilization ratio can thereby be increased, the directivity of planarly emitted light can be increased, and the brightness can be made uniform at the point of observation. | 11-17-2011 |
