네마틱 액정의 틸트 제어를 이용한 새로운 고속응답 액정 모드에 관한 연구

In this paper, we have improved a novel fast response time liquid crystal operating mode using tilt angle in the unique condition by hot-plate equipment. The new control of tilt angle for nematic liquid crystal (NLC) with negative and positive dielectric anisotropy on the rubbed homeotropic polyimide (PI) using baking method by Hot-plate equipment was investigated. LC tilt angle decreased with increasing baking temperature and time. Especially, the low LC tilt angle of positive type NLC (${\Delta}n$>0) on the rubbed homeotropic PI surface by increasing temperature and time was measured. The EO characteristics of the high tilted OCB(HTOCB) mode using control of tilt angle on the homeotropic surface than that of conventional OCB cell can be improved. We suggest that the developed the HTOCB cell using control of tilt angle on the homeotropic surface is a promising technique for the achievement of a fast response time and a high contrast ratio.
