In this paper, we studied the electro-optical(EO) performance of photo-aligned twisted nematic(TN)-liquid crystal display(LCD) with oblique non-polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation on polyimide (PI) surface. The monodomain alignment of photo-aligned TN-LCD is obtained with an angle of incidence of $85^{\circ}$ on PI surface. Also, we observed that the voltage transmittance and response time characteristics of photo-aligned TN-LCD is almost same compared to rubbing treated TN-LCD. Finally, we measured that the voltage-holding-ratio(VHR) of photo-aligned TN-LCD is almost same compared to rubbing treated TN-LCD.

In this paper, we studied the liquid crystal(LC) alignment and generation of pretilt angle in nematic (N) LC with oblique p-wave polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation on the two kinds of the polyimide (PI) surface. The monodomain alignment of NLC is obtained with oblique p-wave polarized UV light irradiated on PI surface at 5$\sim$60min. We obtained that the pretilt angles of the NLC is generated about $2.1^{\circ}$ with angle of incidence of $30^{\circ}$ at 20min. Also, the pretilt angle of NLC decreases with increasing the imidization temperature on PI surface.

Electro-optical (EO) characteristics of the ion beam (IB) aligned twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) with oblique ion beam exposure on the diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin film surface were studied. An excellent voltage-transmittance (V-T) curve of the ion beam aligned IN-LCD was observed with oblique ion beam exposure on the DLC thin film surface for I min. Also, a faster response time for the ion beam aligned TN-LCD with oblique ion beam exposure on the DLC thin film surface for 1 min can be achieved.

The odd-even effect of the alkyl chain length of rubbed polyimide Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) surfaces on the extrapolation length of 5CB has been successfully evaluated for the first time by measuring polar anchoring strength. The extrapolation length of 5CB for rubbed PI-LB surfaces with even-numbers is small compared with odd-numbers for alkyl chain lengths of greater than 7 carbons. The extrapolation length of 5CB on rubbed PI-LB surfaces with odd-numbers increases gradually as the temperature increases but tends to diverge near the clearing temperature (Tc=$35.3^{\circ}C$). The extrapolation length diverges because of rapidly decreasing surface order near $T_c$. We suggest that the polar anchoring strength on rubbed PI-LB surfaces with even-number is strong because of relatively high surface ordering caused by more crystalline surfaces. Finally, we conclude that the odd-even effects of the polar anchoring strength in NLCs are strongly related to the character of the polymer and observed clearly for long alkyl chain lengths.

A novel nematic liquid crystal (LC) cell with splay structure exhibiting wide viewing angle, fast response time and high transmittance at the same time has been developed. With rubbed homeotropic alignment in parallel directions, the device shows bend alignment in the absence of vertical electric field. However, with applied high voltage in a pulse form, the LC shows a optically compensated splay (OCS) orientation such that the mid-director is parallel to a substrate and at both surfaces the LCs are aligned vertically in parallel direction. In the device, the birefringence of the cell becomes tunable with applying voltage, i.e., the amount of light passed through the cell can be controlled by controlling the orientation of the LC. Since the OCS cell has a self-compensation structure such that the LC has a mirror symmetry along the mid-director, the device shows a wide viewing angle with only a single domain and a fast response time.

광 정보 처리 특성을 극대화하기 위해 실시간 동작이 가능한 공간 광 변조기를 사용하며 그중 액정 화면은 기존의 공간 광 변조기에 비해 가격이 저렴하고 특히 꼬인 네마틱 액정 화면 공간 광 변조기는 전기 신호에 따라 광을 변조 할 수 있다는 원리에 의해 여러 가지 이론과 설계 방법이 연구되었으며 기본 매개 변수들을 효과적으로 계산하는 방법이 계속 발표되었다. 본 논문에서는 원형 편광 된 광을 꼬인 네마틱 결정을 갖는 공간 광 변조기에 투사 시켜서 검광기에 통과한 세기 분포를 관찰하여 이상 굴절 축의 회전 방향을 결정하는 방법을 제안하였으며, 존스 행렬을 사용하여 수학적 타당성을 부여하였다.

The wide viewing angle and fast response time characteristics of negative dielectric anisotropy nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using a novel vertical-alignment (VA) - 1/4 ${\pi}$ cell mode on a homeotropic alignment layer were investigated. Good voltage-transmittance curves and low driving voltage using the novel VA - 1/4 ${\pi}$ cell mode without a negative compensation film were obtained. The iso-viewing angle characteristics of NLC using the novel VA - 1/4 ${\pi}$ cell mode without a negative compensation film can be achieved. The fast response time of 24.4 ms in NLC was successfully measured. The iso-viewing angle, fast response time, and low driving voltage characteristics using the novel VA - 1/4 ${\pi}$ cell mode can be achieved.

Evaluating methods of the polar and/or azimuthal anchoring strength coefficients by means of the renormalized transmission spectroscopic ellipsometry are demonstrated. The Anchoring strength coefficients can be evaluated from the measurement of ellipsometric parameters measured by the oblique incident transmission ellipsometry, where the effect of multiplebeam interference is eliminated. The device parameters such as the pretilt angle and cell gap can be determined simultaneously even in the case of the twisted nematic liquid crystal sample cells.

The electro-optical (EO) performance in the vertical-alignment (VA) - 1/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned with polarized UV exposure on a homeotropic photopolymer surfaces was investigated. Excellent voltage-transmittance curve in the VA - 1/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned with polarized UV exposure for 3 min on the photopolymer containing cholesteryl group of 8% can be achieved. The V-T characteristics in the VA-1/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned on the photopolymer surface can be improved by increasing cholesteryl group. For response time measurement, the transmittance characteristics of the VA-1/4$\pi$ cell photopolymer surface was better than that of the VA-1/4$\pi$ cell rubbingaligned on a polyimide(PI) surface.
