We have studied an optically compensated splay (OCS) mode driven by fringe electric field. The OCS configuration obtained by applying voltage to vertically aligned LCs shows a dark state when an optic axis of the OCS cell coincides with one of crossed polarizer axis. When the fringe electric field is applied, the LC director rotates in plane above whole electrode surface, giving rise to the high transmittance, the low operating voltage and wide viewing angle simultaneously.

Conventional hybrid aligned nematic liquid crystal display (HAN-LCD) has several advantages on low operating voltage, fast response time and rubbing free on one substrate. We have fabricated a new hybrid aligned nematic display driven by fringe field. The new device exhibits much wider viewing: angle than that of the conventional HAN mode, owing to almost in-plane rotation of the LC director. Furthermore, we have developed the device that reveals more efficient electro-optic characteristics by placing common electrode on top and bottom substrates. In this paper, the electro-optic characteristics of the novel cell are investigated.

Photoelastic isochromatic fringes related to the difference of principal stresses have some bandwidth whose light intensities are not constant and unsymmetrical in experimental image. Hence it is difficult to measure fringe order accurately at a data point by visual observation. In this study, the method of fringe sharpening, which can extract sharpened lines from both full-and half-order fringes by digital image processing, is developed. To test the method, various simple photoelastic fringe patterns are simulated and their image are processed to yield sharpened lines. The method is than applied to general problem such as image of a circular disk compressed by concentrated loads and a cylinder subjected to internal pressure. The procedure is proved to be capable of extracting sharpened lines accurately from photoelastic isochromatic fringes.

We have studied the influence of rubbing directions on electro-optic characteristics of the fringe field driven hybrid aligned nematic liquid crystal (LC) cell by computer simulation. When a LC with positive dielectric anisotropy is used, the results show that the driving voltage and transmittance decreases as the rubbing direction with respect to horizontal electric field direction increases. The reason for decrease in light transmission is the increase of tilt angle on the center of common electrode. In this paper, we have studied how the rubbing angle effects on the transmittance of the cell by investigating a distribution of electric field and LC director.

We have studied electro-optic characteristics as a function of pretilt angle ($\theta$$_{p}$) in the fringe-field switching (FFS) mode using the LC with positive dielectric anisotropy. When $\theta$$_{p}$ is increased from 0$^{\circ}$ to 20$^{\circ}$, a maximum transmittance and an operating voltage are obviously decreased. In the viewing angle characteristics, the cell with low pretilt angle has a wide region for the contrast ratio greater than 5 and has a best luminance uniformity. Therefore, in the FFS device, a low pretilt angle is favored for high transmittance and wide viewing angle.gle.

We successfully fabricated lowest-cost superior perform ance MVA LCDs with highest-yield, high transmission, high contrast-ratio, and wide viewing angle. Using the amplified intrinsic fringe field (AIFF) controlled MVA invented by Ong, we eliminated all protrusions and ITO slit geometries. We further achieved: (1) faster gray-gray response times without the over-drive technology, (2) faster tough mura, and (3) lower flicker and cross-talk in the row inversion driving schemes.

In liquid crystal displays, the display mode that represents initial liquid crystal alignment and method of applying voltage, mainly determines the image quality of display. Recently we have developed the fringe-field switching (FFS) mode exhibiting high image quality. In this paper, a pixel concept, manufacturing process, materials, and electro-optic characteristics of the FFS mode comparing with conventional in-plane switching mode, and its possible application to reflective type are discussed.

We have studied the influence of rubbing directions on electro-optic characteristics of the fringe field driven hybrid aligned nematic liquid crystal (LC) cell by computer simulation. When a LC with positive dielectric anisotropy is used, the results show that the driving voltage and transmittance decreases as the rubbing direction with respect to horizontal electric field direction increases. The reason for decrease in light transmission is the reduction of twist angle and increase of tilt angle on the center of common electrode. In this paper, we have studied how the rubbing angle effects on the transmittance of the cell by investigating a distribution of electric field and LC director.

Electro-optic characteristics of liquid crystal display using fringe field switching(FFS) device depend on many parameters such as cell retardation, electrode structure, rubbing angle, cell gap and dielectric anisotropy. In this paper, the light efficiency of FFS mode will be analyzed to confirm the electro-optic characteristics according to positive dielectric anisotropy such as transmittance, operating voltage and response time.

We proposed viewing angle switchable liquid crystal display(LCD) associated with fringe-field switching (FFS) mode with high aperture ratio characteristic. In the device, single pixel is separated into two regions, named as main pixel for displaying images and sub pixel for viewing angle control. In sub pixel region, add the common electrode on the top substrate and the initial alignment of liquid crystal is Hybrid Alignment Nematic (HAN) state. In conclusion, we suggested that the device has high aperture ratio characteristic because the LC directors are rotated in which viewing angle control region are generated fringe electric field.
