We have studied a single gap transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) associated with in-plane switching (IPS) mode. In the transmissive IPS cell, the transmittance of electrodes and above electrodes is different, that is, the degree of rotation of the LC director between electrodes and above electrodes is 45 $^{\circ}$ and 22.5 $^{\circ}$ , respectively. Utilizing the different rotating angle of the LC director and in-cell retarder with a quarter-wave plate used below the LC layer, the IPS transflective LCD is realized such that the area between electrodes is used as a transmissive part and the area above electrodes is used as a reflective part.

본 논문에서는 IPS모드의 액정 셀에서 전압에 따른 액정 거동을 수치 해석적으로 계산하는 방법을 보고한다. 액정 거동을 해석하기 위해 복잡한 구조에 적용이 용이한 3차원 유한 요소법을 사용하여 액정 셀 내부의 전압 분포와 전계 분포를 계산하였다. 전기 에너지와 액정 분자의 탄성 에너지로 이루어지는 액정 셀 내부의 자유에너지 밀도를 고려하였으며, 에릭슨-레슬리(Ericksen-Leslie) 방정식과 라플라스(Laplace) 방정식을 해석함으로서 액정 셀의 스위칭 특성을 계산하였다. 24㎛×12㎛×4.5㎛ 사이즈의 IPS 모드 액정 셀에 대하여 1,859개의 노드와 8,640개의 사면체 요소를 생성하여 16ms까지 과도 해석하였다. 그 결과, 전극 위 부분을 제외한 영역에서 횡방향의 전계가 형성되었고, 전극 위 영역에서 전경선(disclination)이 발생하는 것을 확인하였다.

In this study, we proposed an optical compensation method to improve the symmetricity of contrast ratio for wide viewing angle IPS (in-plane switching) LCD. First, the phase retardation depending on the thickness of compensation film is calculated, and then the phase change is presented at the $Poincar{\acute{e}}$ sphere. The phase retardation and the polarization state of the light passing through the optical elements are caculated by using the EJMM (extended Jones matrix method). In addition, the transmittance and the contrast countour are also calculated by using the Berremann's $4{\times}4$ matrix method. The simulation is carried out for a IPS LC cell with positive A/C/A compensation film. From the standard deviation of the contrast ratio, we confirmed the symmetricity at each viewing angle is inversely proportional to the standard deviation and calculated the optimum design condition of the uniaxial compensation film for the IPS LCD.

In this paper, we analyzed the molecular behavior of IPS-LCDs and VA-LCDs by using numerical simulation. The numerical simulation was performed on the basis of Ericksen-Leslie continuum theory. To improve the accuracy of the calculation, we considered fluid balance equation and director balance equation at the same time. thus, we calculated the flow effect for both switching on and off states. As the results of simulation, we confirmed abnormal twist in IPS-LCDs and fast molecular behavior in VA-LCDs which could influence response time.

We have studied the influence of rubbing angles with respect to in-plane field direction on electro-optic characteristics of in-plane switching (IPS) liquid crystal display. The results show that the threshold voltage increases and the operational voltage decreases as the rubbing angle increases. Further, the total response time and also response times associated with grey-to-grey transitions become fast as the rubbing angle decreases.

We have studied electro-optic characteristics of a high performance liquid crystal display using Fringe In-plane field Switching (FIS) mode. The strong electric fields cause more liquid crystals to reorient almost in plane above and between the pixel electrodes. As a result, the operation voltage is lower and transmittance is higher than those of Fringe Field Switching (FFS) and In-Plane Switching (IPS) modes. Apparently, the transmittance depends on voltage applied at the configurations of FIS mode which are proposed. Therefore, we have studied certain length of between electrodes for maximum transmittance and light intensity.

We studied the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment capability by the Ion beam (IB) alignment method on a NDLC (Nitrogen doped Diamond Like Carbon) as a C:H thin film, and investigated electro-optical (EO) performances of the IB aligned In plane switching (IPS) cell with NDLC surface. A good LC alignment by IB exposure on a NDLC surface was achieved. Monodomain alignment of the IB aligned IPS cell can be observed. The good electro-optical characteristics of the IB aligned IPS cell was observed with oblique IB exposure on the NDLC as a-C:H thin film for 1min.

Super In Plane Switching (S-IPS) technology is applied for large TFT-LCD panels used in TV applications. It has a lot of advantages in comparison to the alternative, VA technology. S-IPS shows excellent viewing angle properties and fast response time between intermediate gray levels. If the performance parameters which describe the actual visual performance are considered, S-IPS is much more $advantageous.^{1)}$ However, it shows relatively low contrast ratio in diagonal direction compared to viewing angle characteristic in upper/down direction in S-IPS. In order to compensate the relatively low diagonal contrast ratio, Super-IPS applying for optical film developed, but Super-IPS still has the problem of color shift in black $pattern.^{2)}$ So we improved this problem by developing Enhanced Super-IPS.

In order to compensate the relatively low diagonal contrast ratio, a newly designed optical film was applied and the truly wide view angle of a S-IPS TW(True Wide)-IPS) was achieved. Our newly developed 30-inch TFT-LCD panel reveals TW-IPS that is optimized for TV application
