In this talk, I will introduce a reactive force field (ReaxFF) molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. In contrast to common MD simulations with empirical FFs, we can predict chemical reactions (bond breaking and formation) in large scale systems with the ReaxFF simulation where all of the ReaxFF parameters are from quantum mechanical calculations such as density functional theory to provide high accuracy. Accordingly, the ReaxFF simulation provides both accuracy of quantum mechanical calculations and description of large scale systems of atomistic simulations at the same time. Here, I will first discuss a theory in the ReaxFF including the differences from other empirical FFs, and then show several applications for studying chemical reactions of SiHx radicals on Si surfaces, which is an important issue in Si process.

We have studied on response time of the fringe-field switching (FFS) TFT-LCD using the LCs with negative dielectric anisotropy related to rubbing angle. Simulation and experimental results shows that when a rubbing angle approached $45^{\circ}$, a slope of voltage-dependent curve is decreased such that the operation voltage is increased, however the whole response characteristic between inter-gray levels have a trend to be fast.

We have designed a single gap transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) driven by a fringe electric field and vertical field. The conventional FFS mode does not have an electrode on top substrate, it shows not only slow response time due to weak electric field but also slow discharging problem when electrostatic field is generated after fabricating the cell. To solve these problems, transflective LCD with ITO coated upper substrate was suggested but the transmittance was reduced significantly due to effects from vertical field. Hence, in the present paper, new transflective LCD with ITO coating only in the reflective region was characterized.

The fringe-field switching (FFS) display is known to exhibit wide-viewing-angle and high transmittance. We have simulated pretilt effects on electro-optic characteristic of the device when a liquid crystal with positive and negative dielectric anisotropy is used. The results show that asymmetry in contour of luminance and light leakage in the dark state are increased but voltage-dependent transmittance curves remain about the same, as the pretilt angle increases to $10^{\circ}$.

In this paper, we have investigated the hydrogen effects on Diamond-like Carbon (DLC) as an LC alignment layer of the FFS mode. By change of a Hydrogen content in the DLC sputtering process, the image sticking and electro-optic characteristics of Black-White panel with DLC / IB technology were examined.

We have studied transflective liquid crystal displays (LCDs) associated with fringe-field switching (FFS) mode to achieve high image quality. In the past, several cell structures were used to fabricate transflective FFS liquid crystal display s. Their structures and characteristics are carefully examined to find their merits and cons. Further, optimization of cell parameters to achieve a single driving circuit is performed.

Effects of carbon nanotube (CNT) on the in-plain switching (IPS) and fringe-field switching (FFS) modes were investigated. The studies show that the CNT-doped LC cells exhibit lower transmittance but faster response time than those in the pure LC cell. Interestingly, the CNT-doped IPS and FFS modes show different characteristic in effects of operating voltage.

When a dielectric layer, in-cell retarder (ICR) is formed between electrode and LC layer to get a single gap transflective fringe-field switching (FFS) display, the operating voltage ($V_{op}$) is highly increased due to the thickness of dielectric material. But, we also knew the phenomenon that the increasing rate of Vop is different whether the 1st common electrode was composed of plate type or slit type. In this paper, the common electrode in transmissive part was composed of slit type which had less steepness effect of the Vop and in reflective part was composed of plate type. The rubbing angle of reflective part can be adjusted properly to match the voltage dependent transmittance and reflectance.

We have performed computer simulation to obtain electro-optic chracteristics of reflective liquid crystal display (LCD) using wide viewing angle LC mode, fringe field switching(FFS). Unlike other reflective LCD modes, in the FFS mode, the LC director in plance so an application to reflective display consisted of polarizer, LC layer and reflector is possible. when an incident light is 550mm, the optimal cell retardation value is 0.1365${\mu}$m and the efficiency of reflectivity is high over 90% with very little wavelength dispersion. Further, we have studied a new reflective display with polarizer, optical compensation film with half plate, LC plus reflector. The display with optimized cell parameters shows high contrast ratio (CR) over 130 with high light efficiency over 90% at normal direction and the CR greater than 5 exists over 60$^{\circ}$ of polar angle in all directions.

In general, Single gap transflective FFS display has an in-cell retarder (ICR) between reflective electrode and liquid crystal (LC) layer. Therefore, Operating voltage is highly increased due to this thick dielectric material. But, we also knew the phenomenon that the increasing rate of Vop is different whether the 1st common electrode was composed of plate type or slit type. In this paper, the common electrode in transmissive part was composed of slit type which had less steepness effect of the V op and in reflective part was composed of plate type. The rubbing angle of reflective part can be adjusted properly to match the voltage dependent transmittance and reflectance.
