We report on a high speed flexible display based on a deformed helix ferroelectric liquid crystal (DHFLC) in a vertically aligned configuration. The mechanical stability of the flexible DHFLC display was achieved using a periodic array of columnar spacers formed directly on the top sides of in-plane electrodes by the photolithography technique. Several unique features of display performances such as flexibility, uniform alignment, fast response, and gray scale capability were obtained.

We investigated the effect of polarity of polyimide(PI) film in amorphous (a) - twisted nematic (TN) - liquid crystal display(LCD) for response time and viewing angle. We found that the domain size of a-TN-LCD on PI film with high polarity is smaller then medium polarity. It is considered that the electro-optical characteristics are strongly dependent on this domain in a-TN-LCD. We observed the response time of a-TN-LCD on PI film with high polarity is slow as comparing to PI film with medium polarity. We suggest that the response time of a-TN-LCD is attributed surface effect between the LCs and the substrates.

The viewing angle characteristics of amorphous(a)-twisted nematic(TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) on poly(vinyl)cinnamate (PVC) surfaces with photo polymerrization were investigated. It was found that the threshold voltage increases with increasing the polymerization of PVC surfaces. That the domain size of a-TN-LCD is affected by the surface crystallization with increasing the photo polymerization of the photo-alignment film. We observed that the viewing angle of a-TN-LCD increased with increasing the photo polymerization on PVC surfaces. Finally, we consider that the viewing angle of a-TN-LCD on PVC surfaces is large compared to a-TN-LCD on polyimide(PI) surface.

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, we have investigated the relationship between the generation of pretilt angle and the polarization component in cells with UV light irradiation on polyimide (PI) surface. It was found that the generated pretilt angle is about $1.4^{\circ}$ with S-polarized UV light irradiation of $75^{\circ}$ on PI surface; it may be attributed to the asymmetry triangular of polymer surface with oblique S-polarized UV light irradiation on PI surface. Also, we measured that the generated pretilt angle is about $2.0^{\circ}$ with oblique P polarized UV light irradiation of $75^{\circ}$ on PI surface. Consequently, we suggest that the generated pretilt angle of the NLC is attributed to the interaction between the LC molecules and the polymer surface with oblique polarized UV light irradiation on PI surface.

아조벤젠 고분자는 광 정보저장 및 광 스위치 소자 등의 응용가능성 때문에 많은 연구가 진행되어왔다. 이것은 바로 아조 분자가 가지고 있는 두 이성체 간의 광 이성화 과정에 의한 아조 분자의 정렬에 의한 광 유도 anisotropy가 생기는 특성과 더불어 아조 분자의 이동에 의한 표면 부조가 형성됨이 보고된 이후에 광 정보 저장은 물론 액정의 배향이나 phase mask로의 응용, 특히 photonic band gap(PBG) 효과를 기대 할 수 있는 주기구조 형성에의 응용성 때문에 더욱 관심이 집중되고 있다.

As an effort to reduce cost and lead-time and to increase flexibility and responsiveness, manufacturers are using digital printing in numerous process steps. Typically, these processes require the precise dispensing of various fluids. Piezo ink jet printheads are proving to be reliable tools for depositing active materials such as light emitting polymers (LEP) for mobile phone displays and color filter inks for liquid crystal displays. Ink jets are also being used to provide uniform coatings of polyimide alignment layers and spacers for LCDs. Success with legend printing on PCBs using ink jets has encouraged the design of equipment for directly printing both etch resist and solder mask for PCBs. Development of printers for passive components such as capacitors and resistors is underway. This paper will present the attributes of an ink jet printhead designed to a precision deposition tool and discuss how it is being used to digitally print electronic and flat panel display components. Status of commercialization of digital printing will be discussed along with issues to be resolved before wide adoption takes place.

액정과 같은 단축 이방성 분자들의 정렬 정도에 따라 달라지는 복굴절으로부터 상대 복굴절 ${\Delta}n_{rel}$를 구하고 ${\Delta}n_{rel}$과 방향질서변수(orientational order parameter) S의 관계를 탐색하였다. 무질서한 분포를 하고 있는 경우를 포함하여 액정의 정렬정도를 달리 표현할 수 있는 분포함수를 도입하고 이 분포함수를 사용하여 질서변수 S가 0부터 1까지 변하도록 액정분자들의 정렬정도를 달리하며 ${\Delta}n_{rel}$과 S를 수치계산 하였다. 이 계산 결과로부터 s와 ${\Delta}n_{rel}$는 $S=(1+a){\Delta}n_{rel}-a{\Delta}n^2_{rel}$와 같이 준선형적인 관계를 만족하며 a는 $n_o{\frac{{\Delta}n}{4}}$으로 근사할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 복굴절으로부터 Vuks의 방법에 따라 구한 분자분극의 이방성과 Neugebauer의 방법에 따라 구한 분자분극의 이방성이 각각 질서변수 S와 또 다른 준선형 관계식들을 따름을 보였다.

The molecular reorientations and surface morphologies of rubbed films formed from atactic polystyrene (PS) samples with various molecular weights were investigated in detail. Previously unknown surface topography features were newly discovered in rubbed films, depending on molecular weights: submicroscale groove-like meandering structures composed of fine-grooves like pebbles in tens nanometers are present, oriented perpendicular to the rubbing direction. The vinyl main chains, however, were preferentially reoriented along the rubbing direction and the planes of the phenyl side groups were preferentially reoriented perpendicular to the rubbing direction with para-directions that were positioned nearly normal to the film plane. Nematic liquid crystal (LC) molecules were found to always align on the rubbed PS surfaces along the orientation direction of the submicroscale grooves generated by rubbing.

액정과 같은 단축 이방성 분자들의 상대 복굴절 ${\Delta}n_{rel}$과 질서변수 S가 만족하는 준선형 관계식인 $S=(1+a){\Delta}n_{rel}-a{\Delta}n^2_{rel}$이 보편적인 관계식임을 확인하였다. 액정분자들이 정다면체 대칭분포를 할 경우 굴절률은 등방적이며 $\frac{1}{n^2_{av}}=\frac{1}{3}\(\frac{1}{n^2_e}+\frac{2}{n^2_o}\)$와 같이 구해짐을 확인하였다. 정다면체 대칭성을 가지는 액정의 기본 분포에 분포함수 가중치를 가하여 액정의 정렬정도를 바꾸며 ${\Delta}n_{rel}$과 S를 수치계산 하였다. 또한 액정이 z축 주위 회전대칭성을 가지는 깔때기 모양으로 분포하고 있을 때 깔때기의 중심각을 변화시키며 ${\Delta}n_{rel}$과 S를 수치계산 하였다. 이로부터 S와 ${\Delta}n_{rel}$의 준선형 관계식이 액정의 분포형태와는 무관한 보편적인 관계식임을 보였다.
