In such a flat panel display, a liquid crystal display panel used for a liquid crystal display (LCD) is a next-generation display device which is formed by utilizing the birefringence of liquid crystal (LC) and the polarizing property of a polarizing plate. 1 is a schematic view showing a part of a pixel of a liquid crystal display panel. As shown in FIG. 1, the display panel has a configuration in which the lower substrate 10 and the upper substrate (four) are sealed (sealed) to each other. The lower substrate 10 has a thin film transistor 1 and a lower back film (not shown), and the upper substrate 20 is sequentially formed with a black matrix 21, a color film 22, and a common electrode. On the film (not shown). At this time, the liquid crystal 3 has a space of 1 〇 and 2 基板, and the outer side of the lower substrate 10 and the upper substrate 20 are respectively attached with a polarization direction, such as an upper/lower polarizing plate 40, 41, 3 201022763. It can control the transmission of light. Further, the voltage between the fine pixel electrode 12 and the common electrode 23 is sealed between the substrates 10 and 20 to control the polarization-converted liquid crystal to adjust the light transmittance. Further, on the outer sides of the substrates 10 and 20, the upper/lower polarizing plates 40 and 41 which are orthogonal to each other in the polarization direction are attached to each other to perform on/off (ΟΝ/OFF) of the transmitted light after the polarization. The voltage for controlling the state of the liquid crystal 30 is controlled by the driving portion a including the thin film transistor i, and the light supplied from the lower backlight (not shown) can be transmitted to the outside through the light transmitting portion b. On the other hand, the liquid crystal display panel allows light of a specific wavelength to be sufficiently transmitted, and light of other wavelengths is displayed in color by the color filter 22 having a blocking characteristic. For example, the R color filter is used to allow the red light to be sufficiently transmitted and the light of other wavelengths is not sufficiently transmitted, the G color filter allows the green light to be sufficiently transmitted, and the light of other wavelengths is not sufficiently transmitted, and the B color filter is used. The principle that the blue light is sufficiently transmitted and the light of other wavelengths is not sufficiently transmitted can control the R, G, and B of each pixel arranged in a matrix form to realize full color display. In the above liquid crystal display panel, the reference for determining whether or not the pixel is defective is the number of defective images (4) included in the liquid crystal display panel. Bad pixels can be divided into bright pixels and dark pixels, and the number of bright pixels that are usually allowed is stricter than the number of dark pixels. For this reason, bright pixels can be darkened to improve the yield of the liquid crystal display panel. For example, if a bright pixel is not allowed at all and a maximum of one dark pixel is allowed, the liquid crystal display panel can be a normal panel when the silk image is turned into a dark secret. 201022763 The method for darkening the bright pixels in this way is roughly different from the method of irradiating the laser to the black matrix to illuminate the black matrix, and then inducing the molten black matrix material to the "object" to darken the redundant pixels. And the method of directly illuminating the light through the light-transmitting region; the color-changing sheet is used to change the color of the enamel film into black, and the bright-spot pixel is darkened. As an example, FIG. 2 is a view showing a process of repairing a defective pixel of a conventional liquid crystal display panel. As shown in FIG. 2, the device for repairing a defective pixel of the liquid crystal display panel may include a light source 5G, a light transmitting portion 6〇, and a cluster. The light portion 7 (four) is configured, and the light generated by the light source % is adjusted by the attenuator 61 of the light transmitting portion 6G. "When passing through the linear polarization conversion portion 62, the light is converted into the same direction as the upper polarizing plate 41. The polarized light is recorded, and the light (4) can be directly irradiated to the color filter 22 through the polarizing plate 41 above the liquid crystal display panel. At this time, since the linear polarization conversion portion 62 has a photon with the upper polarizing plate _-direction Therefore, after light (4) passing through the upper polarizing plate 41, the color filter 22 layer can be irradiated to darken the pixel whose color is changed to black. In the repair method using the linear polarized light, if the upper polarized light (10) and the upper polarized light pass through If the electric field of the linearly polarized light of the plate 41 is not correctly aligned, excellent efficiency cannot be obtained. However, if the process error in manufacturing the polarizing plate and the equipment error of the repairing device itself are carefully considered, the linearly polarized light passes uniformly. The present invention is directed to solving the problems of the prior art described above. For circular polarization, "effectively darkening the repair method using a polarized liquid crystal display. Further, another object of the present invention is to provide a method of repairing a full-polarized light which is obtained by polarizing linearly polarized light and effectively darkening defective pixels.夜夜显器 [Means for Solving the Problem] A representative structure of the present invention for achieving the above object is as follows. The object of the present invention is achieved by a liquid crystal display panel repair method. And characterized in that: (4) converting the light generated by the light source into a linear polarizing step, converting the straight line to the _polarized light; and (4) passing the rotating polarized light through the polarizing plate of the liquid crystal display panel to remove the pixel The step of light. Here, the aforementioned rotational polarization is preferably elliptically polarized. Further, the wavelength of the aforementioned light source is preferably from 400 to 532 nm. Furthermore, the aforementioned light source is preferably a continuous laser. Further, preferably, in the step (c), the method of removing the light transmittance of the pixel is to irradiate the rotating polarized light onto the color filter of the liquid crystal display panel or irradiate the rotating polarized light onto the liquid crystal display panel. Black matrix. Advantageous Effects of Invention According to the present invention, linear polarization can be converted into circularly polarized light, and light transmittance of defective pixels can be effectively removed. 6 201022763 Moreover, according to the present invention, linear polarization can be converted into elliptically polarized light, and light transmittance of defective pixels can be more effectively removed. Further, according to the present invention, there is an effect that the above-described circularly polarized light and elliptically polarized light can be used to improve the repair yield.

Fig. 3 is a view showing a part of the apparatus for repairing defective pixels of the liquid crystal display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 3, the defective pixel of the liquid crystal display panel according to the embodiment of the present invention may include a light source 1A, a light transmitting portion 2A, and a condensing portion 300. First, the light source 1 of the embodiment of the present invention is preferably a device that can achieve the function of emitting light, emits light having a uniform wavelength and phase, and uses laser light having excellent transmission properties as a light source. In this case, the laser used in the present invention may use either a continuous laser or a pulsed laser, and when the wavelength of the laser is about 400 to 532 nm, the physical properties of the color filter are liable to change. The influence of other parts of the LCD panel will become smaller. Therefore, in order to further suppress the damage of the polarizing plate, the wavelength of the laser light is preferably about 400 to 532 nm. Next, in the optical transmission unit 2 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the light generated by the light source 100 is converted into linearly polarized light by a plurality of optical mechanisms, and the linearly polarized light is converted into a rotationally polarized light such as circularly polarized or elliptically polarized light.

More specifically, the light transmitting unit 200 may include an attenuator 210 for adjusting the light output, and a rotating polarization converting unit 220 for converting the direction in which the electric field is directed to the direction of the light. Preferably, it may have a configuration in which it is converted into circularly polarized light or elliptically polarized light after being converted into linearly polarized light. With the attenuator 21A, the aforementioned continuous laser can be adjusted in the range of 5 〇 to 100 mW. Since such a polarization conversion method is a conventional technique, detailed description thereof will be omitted in the present invention. φ Finally, the concentrating unit 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention adjusts the focus, and the circularly polarized light or the elliptically polarized light converted by the light transmitting unit 200 can be accurately irradiated to the repairing position in the liquid crystal display panel, and includes The concept of an infrared (NIR) lens is not limited thereto.

Fig. 5 is a block diagram showing the optical portion for realizing Fig. 4. As shown in Fig. 5, the 'optical portion _ may include a collimator 2 for improving the linear transmission property of the laser on the laser transmission path (n, an attenuator 21 调节 for adjusting the laser output, the rotating polarization conversion portion 220, The mirror 23诱导 for inducing the optical path and the grating 24〇 for adjusting the optical size. In this case, the structure including the rotary polarization conversion unit 220 of the present invention can be changed as needed, and the spectroscopic, prism, and A structure such as a homogenizer or a part of the structure is removed. The apparatus for repairing a defective pixel of a liquid crystal display panel according to an embodiment of the present invention having the above-described structure can be more clearly explained by a detailed description of a method for repairing a rotationally polarized light described below. Using the method of repairing the rotating polarized light firstly, in order to repair the liquid crystal display panel, the defective pixels (bright pixels) existing in the liquid crystal display panel are detected. The method of detecting defective pixels is a conventional technique, and the description thereof is omitted. Then, 'Improve the laser light to the defective pixel to be repaired, and change the physical properties of the color filter contained in the good pixel of the 10 201022763' to make the color filter The lightness is reduced. Fig. 6 is a view showing the state of light of each type of illumination light transmitted through the polarizing plate. As shown in Fig. 6, it can be understood that the light transmitted through the linear polarized light transmitted through the polarizing plate of 45 degrees is caused by Conversely, when the polarized light is transmitted through the 45-degree polarizing plate, even if the intensity of the light is reduced, the light can be uniformly transmitted. Also, when the elliptically polarized light is transmitted through the 45-degree polarizing plate, the light is uniform. In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to repair the liquid crystal display panel, the linear polarization is converted into circularly polarized light or elliptically polarized light by the rotary polarization conversion unit 220. When the color filter is included in the defective pixel, the physical properties of the color filter can be appropriately changed. At this time, in the process of irradiating the laser light emitted from the light source 100 to the color filter, 'in order to illuminate the liquid crystal display panel In order to minimize the image, it is necessary to concentrate the laser on the color filter of the defective pixel by the concentrating portion 300. To facilitate understanding of the present invention described above, for example, by experiment and comparison, for example The following experimental examples are only intended to assist in understanding the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the following experimental examples. [Experimental Example 1] Fig. 7 is a schematic view showing Experimental Example 1 of the present invention. In the first embodiment of the present invention, the light source 100 and the light transmitting unit are used in the same manner as in the first embodiment of the present invention described with reference to FIG. 3, as shown in FIG. 200. A repairing device comprising the concentrating unit 300. First, a continuous laser having a wavelength of 445 nm is used as a light source, and the attenuator 210 of the light 11 201022763 transmitting unit 200 adjusts the intensity of the continuous laser to 75 mW. In the rotary polarization conversion unit 22, the light that has passed through the attenuator 210 is converted into elliptically polarized light by a quarter-wavelength plate. Then, a near-infrared lens of 50X magnification is used in the condensing unit 300 to irradiate the laser beam that has become elliptically polarized. After being applied to the upper portion of the green G pixel polarizing plate 41 and the upper substrate 2 in the light transmitting portion b of the liquid crystal display panel, the light focus is focused on the color filter 22, whereby the green color filter 22 is changed. Dark of the process. At this time, such a repairing device moves at a speed of 1 〇〇 μη / 8 to illuminate a width of 30 μm of the green G pixel. [Experimental Example 2] Fig. 8 is a schematic view showing the process of repairing defective pixels of the liquid crystal display panel of Experimental Example 2 of the present invention. As shown in Fig. 8, in the experimental example 2 of the present invention, the light source 1A, the light transmitting portion 2A, and the collecting portion 300 are used in the same manner as the first embodiment of the present invention described with reference to Fig. 3. The repair device is constructed. First, a continuous laser having a wavelength of 445 nm was used as a light source, and the attenuator 210 of the light transmitting portion 200 adjusted the intensity of the continuous laser to 75 mW. Next, in the rotary polarization conversion unit 220, the light passing through the attenuator 210 is converted into circularly polarized light by a quarter-wavelength plate. Then, a near-infrared lens of 50X magnification is used in the concentrating portion 300, and the laser beam that has been subjected to circularly polarized light is transmitted through the light transmitting portion b of the liquid crystal display panel to be applied to the upper polarizing plate 41 and the upper substrate 2 of the green G pixel. Thereafter, the focus of the light is focused on the enamel sheet 22, whereby the process of darkening the green enamel sheet 22 is blackened. At this time, such a repairing device moves at a speed of 丨〇〇pm/s 201022763, illuminating a width of 30 μm of the green G pixel. [Comparative Example] A repairing device comprising a light source 50, a light transmitting portion 60, and a condensing portion 7A is used in the same manner as in the prior art described with reference to Fig. 2 in the background art of the present invention. First, a continuous laser having a wavelength of 445 nm was used as a light source, and the attenuator 61 of the light transmitting portion 60 adjusted the intensity of the continuous laser to 75 mW. Then, the light passing through the attenuator 61 is converted into linearly polarized light by the linear polarization conversion unit 62 by the 1/2 wavelength plate. Then, a near-infrared lens of 50X magnification is used in the concentrating portion 7〇, and the linearly polarized laser beam is transmitted through the light transmitting portion b of the liquid crystal display panel to be applied to the green G pixel upper polarizing plate 41 and the upper substrate 2 After that, the focus of the light is focused on the color filter 22 'by this, the process of darkening the green G color filter 22 is blackened. At this time, such a repairing device moves at a speed of 1 〇〇, illuminating 3 pm & width of the green G pixel. The following experimental examples, Experimental Example 2, and Comparative Example will be described with reference to the ninth and first drawings showing the photo-interruption rate of each pixel and the photo of the darkened image of the display. Fig. 9 is a photograph showing the pixels of the liquid crystal display panel of the experimental example 2 and the scale of the present invention. Fig. 10 is a photograph showing the color difference produced by the transmittance of each pixel of Fig. 9. [Table 1] _Experiment ¢113⁄4 circularly polarized light) Experimental example 2 (circularly polarized light) Comparative example (linear polarized light) Light cutoff rate 90% 50% 30% 13 201022763 As shown in Fig. 9 and Table 1, compared with utilization In the comparative example of the linearly polarized light, the optical blocking ratios of the experimental examples 1 and 2 using the elliptically polarized light and the circularly polarized light were all excellent. At this time, the experiment of Example 1 (90%) using the elliptically polarized light to darken the pixel of the pixel was better than the experimental example 2 (5〇%) using the circular deviation. Here, the light cutoff rate refers to the extent to which light is transmitted through the pixels by the irradiation of light. For example, the light cutoff rate of Example 1 of Example 1 means that 90% of the light transmission blocking ratio is based on 100%. Since it is the same as in the experimental example 2 and the comparative example, the detailed description is abbreviate|omitted. Moreover, such a light cutoff rate can also be confirmed in the pixel photograph of Fig. 9. That is, it can be visually confirmed that the non-uniform region of the green pixel G repaired by the experimental example 1 is smaller than the green pixel G repaired by the experimental example 2 and the green pixel G repaired by the comparative example, and more uniformly discolored into black. _ As shown in the first diagram of the light-transmissive state according to the chromatic aberration, it can be confirmed that the green pixel G repaired by the experimental example 1 is smaller than the green pixel G repaired by the experimental example 2 and the green pixel G repaired by the comparative example. More uniform color change into black 'color difference is small. On the other hand, the reproducibility of the repair was investigated by the experimental example and the comparative example, and as a result, the most excellent reproducibility was exhibited when ellipsometry was used. The so-called repair reproduction image is excellent in that the repair operation is repeated many times under the same conditions, and as a result, the same light transmittance can be obtained relatively frequently. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the laser light source is irradiated onto the defective pixel by the polarizing plate of the liquid crystal display panel to block the light transmission of the defective pixel, it is preferable to use elliptically polarized light. According to the invention, the linearly polarized light can be converted into a circularly polarized light, and the light transmittance of the defective pixel can be effectively removed in 14 201022763, and the linearly polarized light is converted into the elliptically polarized light, and the light transmittance of the defective pixel is more effectively removed, and the foregoing can be utilized. Circular polarized light and elliptically polarized light improve repair yield. Therefore, the industrial applicability of the present invention can be considerably high.
