Electrooptical (EO) characteristics of a new multidomain vertical-alignment (MVA) liquid crystal display (LCD) with negative dielectric anisotropy on a homeotropic photopolymer were studied. Good voltage-transmittance (V-T) curves of the new MVA-LCD on the homeotropic photopolymer were obtained. Also, the stable response time of the new MVA-LCD on the homeotropic photopolymer was achieved. The viewing angle of the new MVA-LCD could be improved by a crossed stripe grating-groove surface as the alignment layer using a photolithograph method on the photopolymer.

This paper presents an improved vertical alignment nematic liquid crystal mode characterized by the protrusions or slits of the top substrate and additional stripe type common electrodes with polarity switching of the bottom substrate to improve multi-domain vertically aligned (MVA) and patterned vertically aligned (PVA) nematic modes. MVA and PVA modes have disadvantages such as an LC disclination in the vicinity of the middle region of electrodes between the top and bottom protrusions in MVA mode or the top and bottom slits in PVA mode. Therefore, the stripe type common electrode generating a horizontal electric field and the protrusion or slit producing some pretilt of liquid crystals (LCs) were used to improve the LC disclination, which influences the transmittance and response speed. The simulation results showed that the proposed VA mode has higher transmittance than the MVA and PVA modes. As a result, the proposed VA mode can improve the response speed and transmittance remarkably, which makes it useful for upgrading the LCD display quality.

Electro-optical characteristics of new multi-domain vertical-alignment (MVA) liquid crystal displays (LCDs) with negative dielectric anisotropy on a homeotropic photopolymer were studied. Good voltage-transmittance (V-T) curves by the new MVA-LCD on the homeotropic photo-polymer were obtained. Also, the stable response time of MVA-LCD on the homeotropic photopolymer can be achieved. The viewing angle of the new MVA-LCD could be improved by the grating groove with UV exposure and development on the photo-polymer.

Advanced-MVA(A-MVA) for LCD-TV application was proposed to yield high performance LCD-TV. By utilizing Additional Refresh Technology(ART), which has 2-TFTs but with single source and gate line only. The A-MVA can yield low color washout, fast response, and optimized brightness. AMVA has become the promising solution of advanced LCDTV panels for mass-production.

In this paper, we propose an MVA mode cell structure with improved optical characteristics. Our MVA cell has an electrode with fine-slits. Optical characteristics of our proposed structure were compared with those without fine-slits. Moreover, we varied the interval as well as the widths of fine-slits in order to appreciate the effect of fine-slits. Optical characteristics of these cells were calculated with 3DFEM solver, TechWiz LCD. It was confirmed that the transmittance can be improved by more than 7% with fine-slits.

S-PVA is a new technology which enables screen quality advantages over S-IPS and MVA, including high transmittance, >1000:1 contrast ratio, sub-10ms response time, and wide angle of view with no off-axis image inversion and undetectable gamma distortion. This new technology will be described in detail. This paper also addresses the other remaining performance issues facing LCD-TV, including Samsung's plans for addressing these challenges. For example, until recently, inter-gray response time and associated motion blur were significant issues for achieving LCD-TV images quality. Samsung has invented DCC-II technology to achieve sub-10ms response time, and this achievement is described herein. Other technology advancements, including next-generation color performance and ultra-low black performance and improvement of off axis image quality are also discussed in this paper.

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.

평판 디스플레이 장치가 LCD-TV에 사용되는 경우 시야각 특성과 동화상 성능은 보다 중요한 성능이 된다. 전반적인 LCD의 화질 특성은 시야각 특성과 동화상 응답 속도를 제외한 모든 부문에서 경쟁 기술보다 우세하다. 이러한 디스플레이의 시야각 특성을 개선하기 위해 LCD업계에서는 IPS, MVA, PVA 등 시야각 특성이 개선된 광시야각 액정 Mode를 개발하여 사용하고 있지만 여전히 LCD는 자발광 디스플레이에 비하여 측면 시인성 측면으로 열세에 있었다. 최근에는 LCD의 측면 시인성을 획기적으로 개선 할 수 있는 기술이 개발되어 더 이상 LCD-TV 응용에서 문제가 되지 않을 수준이 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 여러가지 광시야각 액정모드 LCD의 측면 시인성 향상 기술에 대한 개략적인 사항을 알아보고, 그 중 Super PVA 액정 기술의 기본원리와 동작 방법에 대하여 상세히 기술하기로 한다.

We have developed a multi-domain vertically aligned liquid crystal display (MVA-LCD) that produces natural gray-scale images even at high viewing angles. We divided each pixel into two areas and set different threshold voltages for each sub-area. A transparent electrode in a sub-area is not connected directly to the source electrodes but via the capacitance of the SiN layer. In particular, light-orange skin color appears very natural, even at a high inclination angle. The contrast ratio is over 500 in the normal direction and over 10 from any viewing angle.
