The discharge phenomena in a flat fluorescent lamp for the backlight unit of liquid crystal displays are simulated by sung a two-dimensional fluid model. The numerical methods for the calculation of plasma dynamics and the radiation transport are introduced for the discharge simulation and for the transmission of the vacuum ultraviolet lights. The simulation results are presented to compare the luminance and the luminance efficacy with the variation of gas pressure, gas mixture ratio, driving voltage, and frequency.

다중 도메인 수직배향 LCD는 러빙 공정을 필요치 않는 다는 장점에서 출발해 현재 액정 TV 시장에서 주를 이루고 있다. 하지만 현재 사용화 되고 있는 제품들이 투과율, 응답속도, 명암대비율 등 성능부분의 개선이 필요하고 공정 측면에서 돌기를 사용하거나 상판 패턴을 필요로 하는데 이러한 공정을 제거하면서도 성능이 우수한 새로운 형태의 수직배향 LCD가 최근 대두되고 있다. 기 발표된 기술들을 정리해 보면 신기술에서는 액정에 UV curing이 가능한 모노머를 소량 도핑 한 후 적절한 셀 구조를 형성해 전압 인가시 중간에 액정 배열에 충돌이 있더라도 최종적으로 안정한 배열을 갖게 만든 다음 UV조사를 통해 양 기판 표면에 모노머가 고분자화되면서 액정 배향 방향과 프리틸트각을 갖게 하도록 만든다. 이러한 신개념의 수직배향 LCD는 종래 LCD에 비해 전기광학 특성이 우수해지고 제조공정도 단순해져 향후 수직배향 LCD의 주를 이룰 것으로 예상된다. 더불어 수직배향 기술은 해마다 새로운 진화를 하고 있으며 앞으로 더 진화를 할 것으로 예상되어 이 부분에 대한 적극적인 연구 지원이 필요하다.

We propose a super-thin and light-weight liquid crystal cell, in which glass substrates are eliminated and polarizers are used as substrates. We fabricate a polarizer substrate by depositing a-SiOX as a buffer layer, indium-tin-oxide as a transparent conducting layer, and a-SiOX as an alignment layer on a polarizer sequentially at a low temperature. We use the ion-beam method to align liquid crystals on polarizer substrates.

Recently, LCD (liquid crystal display) industry is needed to goods of high reliability and wide range temperature condition and it is interested in products for extremely cold condition without failure of light-up. In this experiment, we made the LED backlight unit for Automotive-navigation under the extremely cold condition. And for making this backlight unit, we used to eight side emitting type white LEDs with 3W high power LED. We could know that this backlight unit releases to 18,000 nit in 24W power consumption and start up voltage time is under the 1ms in the ambient temperature at -40.

We propose a novel bistable nematic liquid crystal cell, which has a dual-frequency liquid crystal material and pixel-isolating polymer wall formed by an anisotropic phase separation of a mixture of liquid crystals and UV-curable pre-polymers. The proposed cell has two stable states of left- and right-handed ${\pi}$-twist. The switching between the two states is achieved by using a sequential waveform of low and high frequencies. A transmissive bistable liquid crystal display is designed, which achieves high contrast ratio by using the proposed cell and optical films.
