LC aligning capabilities and the variation of pretilt angles with ion beam irradiation on the a-C:H thin films, and electro-optical (EO) performances of the ion beam aligned twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) with oblique ion beam exposure on the a-C:H thin film were studied. A high pretilt angle of $3.5{^{\circ}}$ via ion beam irradiation on the a-C:H thin film was measured. Also, the LC pretilt angle decreased due to the increase in surface roughness at over 2 min of IB exposure time. It is considered that this roughness increase due to increasing IB exposure time that generated destroy of oriented rings of atoms related to LC alignment. An excellent voltage-transmittance (V-T) curve of the ion beam aligned TN-LCD was observed with oblique ion beam exposure on the a-C:H thin film for 1 min. Also, a faster response time for the ion beam aligned TN-LCD with oblique ion beam exposure on the a-C:H thin film for 1 min can be achieved. Finally, the residual DC property of the ion beam aligned TN-LCD with ion beam exposure of 1 min on the a-C:H thin film is almost same as that of the rubbing aligned TN-LCD on a PI surface.

We investigated the generation of high pretilt angle for nematic liquid crystal (NLC) in a cell with obilique non-polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation on mixtured polyimide surface. It was found that the monodomain alignment of NLC is obtained with an angle of incidence of 75∼85 degrees on PI surface. We consider that the monodomain alignment of NLC is attributed to anisotropic dispersion force effect to photo-depolymerization of polymer. We successfully observed that the pretilt angle of NLC is generated above 5 degree with an angle of incidence of 75∼85 degrees. It is considered that the pretilt angle generation NLC is attributed to interaction between the LC molecules and the polymer surfaces.

We have studied effect of Patterned Vertical Alignment (PVA) mode on electro-optical characteristics and stability of liquid crystal director upon electrode pattering. In the present studies, LC director field and stability of conventional PVA mode electrode patterns were analyzed and new type of electrode patterns were suggested. At last, comparison between this new type of electrode patterns to conventional electrode pattern types were followed.

The LCD based on Kerr effect is highly interesting because it uses an optically isotropic state with no need of alignment layer and it shows sub-millisecond response time. The problem of the device is that it requires very high operating voltage and the transmittance is relatively low compared with other LCDs that use nematic LC. In this work, we study on various electrode structures and driving method which can lower operating voltage.

In this study, the response surface modeling of the pretilt angle control using in-situ photoalignment method with oblique UV exposure .on plastic substrate is investigated. The pretilt angle is the main factor to determine the alignment of the liquid crystal display. The response surface model is used to analyze the variation of the pretilt angle on the various process conditions. Heating temperature and UV exposure time are considered as input factors. The liquid crystal (LC) pretilt angle increased with increasing heating temperature and UV exposure time. The analysis of variance is used to analyze the statistical significance and the effect plots are also investigated to examine the relationship between the process parameters and the response.

VA Mode LC를 사용하는 Full-HD급 LCOS 마이크로디스플레이에서 셀 상하 간격의 변화에 따른 전기광학적 특성의 변화에 관하여 3차원 LC code를 이용하여 연구하였다. 5가지의 다른 셀 상하 간격 (1.4 ${\mu}m$, 1.8 ${\mu}m$, 2.1 ${\mu}m$, 2.4 ${\mu}m$ 그리고 2.8 ${\mu}m$)의 변화에 따라 Reflectance-Voltage 특성, 반사광 및 반사율 분포, Optical Fill Factor 그리고 명암비를 비교하였다. Surface Anchoring 효과에 의해 상하 간격이 증가하면서 반사율은 증가하였으나 Optical Fill Factor와 명암비를 고려할 경우, 중간 수준의 간격인 2.1 ${\mu}m$ 의 특성이 가장 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다. 동일한 구조를 갖고 있는 0.7 인치 LCOS 패널을 제작하여 광학적 측정을 해 본 결과 시뮬레이션 결과와 통일함을 확인할 수 있었다.

Cinnamate groups are well-known for a dimerization reaction upon exposure to ultraviolet irradiation and a thermal reaction after being heated. In this study, to verify the thermal reaction of the cinnamate group in detail, we investigated the thermal crosslinking of cinnamate oligomers. The thermal reaction of cinnamate oligomers of low molecular weight is induced more readily by thermal energy compared with that of cinnamate polymers. The orientation of the liquid crystal depended on the length of the spacers in the cinnamate oligomers.

A 32x32 liquid crystal (LC) flat panel display using two-dimensional array of PMOS switches and capacitors is designed and fabricated. Standard PMOS process was followed to fabricate the switch and capacitor array on silicon wafer, on the top of which guest-host effect liquid crystal was wmployed as an electro-optical material for optical switching and liquid crystal display(LCD) with its external drive circuitry was basically successful. Remaining problems to be solved are improvement of contrast ratio, good surface alignment and uniformity.

The electro-optical characteristics of the Liquid Crystal on Silicon (hereinafter "LCOS") micro-display on vertically alignment (VA) mode were studied depending on various cell gaps. 5 different cell gaps, such as $1.4{\mu}m,\;1.8{\mu}m,\;2.1{\mu}m,\;2.4{\mu}m$ and $2.8{\mu}m$, were selected. The reflectance-voltage (R-V) characteristics, distributions of reflected light and reflectance were calculated with 3-dimmensional LC code. At the center of cell, the smallest $1.4{\mu}m$ cell gap showed the lowest reflectance and the largest $2.8{\mu}m$ cell gap showed the highest reflectance due to the surface anchoring effect. In case of $2.1{\mu}m$ cell gap, the sum of reflectance overall cell was the highest value. Considering the reflectance and RV curve characteristic, the optimized cell gap was $2.1{\mu}m$.
