The mechanism of response time and viewing angle in in-plane switching ( IPS ) liquid crystal display ( LCD ) were investigated. The response time of photo-aligned IPS-LCD is fast compared with rubbing-aligned IPS-LCD on polyimide ( PI ) surface. The decay time $\tau$$\_$d/ is decreased with increasing the azimuthal anchoring energy A $\psi$ due to the steric interaction between the LC molecules and side chain of polymer. The viewing angle of IPS-LCD is increased by using photo-depolymerizatin method ; about ${\pm}$70$^{\circ}$at all direction.

In this paper we report the influence of rubbing direction and electrode distance to the voltage dependent transmittance in in-plane switching (IPS) mode. Moreover, we applied this to a transflective IPS cell to realize a single gamma characteristics both in the transmissive part and the reflective part..

Here we report the effect of photo-spacer and polymer wall on the mechanical stability of the polymer-stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystal (PSFLC) system. A better bending tolerance of the PSFLC cell was obtained when the polymer wall was formed parallel to the rubbing direction. In addition, the effect of the distance between photo-spacer columns as well as that of the distance between polymer wall columns on the mechanical stability of the liquid crystal was examined.

We have studied motion of micro-particle immersed in liquid crystal (LC) controlled by in-plane field, which is an important technology in the electro-phoretic display (EPD). In the EPD on and off states are decided by movement of these charged particles and response time is influenced by moving velocity of charged particles. In addition, the velocity can be controlled by intensity of applied voltage such that the higher the applied voltage, the faster velocity of particles become. In this study, we investigated particles's motion as functions of applied voltage, temperature of LC, rubbing direction,

The pentacene-based organic thin film transistors(OTFTs) using polyvinylalcohol(PVA) alignment layer were fabricated on the $SiO_2$ evaporated to n-type (111) Si substrates. The pentacene film was deposited by thermally evaporated at $10^{-7}$ torr. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscope(AFM) measurement showed pentacene film which deposited on rubbed PVA layers were partially crystallized at (001) plane. The pentacene OTFTs with PVA layers rubbed perpendicular to the direction of current flow was shown to align better orientation than parallel rubbed case and thus to enhance the mobility and saturation current by a factor of 2.3 respectively. We obtained mobility by 0.026 $cm^2$/Vs and on-off current ratio by ${\sim}10^8$.

We have studied 90$^{\circ}$ twisted nematic mode switching by fringe electric field(F-TN mode) using a liquid crystal (LC) with negative dielectric anisotropy. In the device, two polarizers are parallel each other, electrodes exist only on bottom substrate, and one of rubbing direction is coincident with polarizer axis. Therefore, the cell shows a black state before a voltage is applied. With a bias voltage generating fringe-electric field, the LC twists perpendicular to fringe electric field such that the LCs are almost homogeneously aligned except near the bottom surface since the negative type of the LC is used. Consequently, the new device exhibits much wider viewing angle than that of the conventional TN mode due to in-plane switching and relatively high transmittance since the LC director above whole electrode area aligns parallel to the polarizer axis.

The Conventional patterned vertical alignment (PVA) device shows a very high contrast ratio at normal direction and does not require rubbing process. However it has a disclination area in which the liquid crystal can be collision in the boundary domain region. In this paper, we studied PVA(Z-shape) device in which the liquid crystal can be tilted down in multiple directions stably because the surface pretilt angle is controlled by photopolymerization of the UV - curable reactive mesogen (RM) under a proper condition. Consequently, the device shows improved electro optical properties as compared to conventional PVA mode.

The fringe electric field driven transflective liquid crystal display with dual orientation has a problem that the voltage-dependent transmittance and reflectance curves do not match each other, requiring a dual driving circuit to achieve a high electro-optic performance. Optimizations of the electrode structure in the array substrate and rubbing direction solve this problem so that the transflective display with a single gap and a single gamma curve for reflective and transmissive region is possible.

Alignment characteristic of liquid crystal (LC) on in-cell retarder which is composed of reactive mesogens has been tested. The in-cell retarder which is polymerized on top of the homogeneous alignment layer (AL) has an optic axis along the rubbing direction of the homeogenous AL and does show good alignment effect of the LC without showing any defects, which possibly allows a skip of another AL on the in-cell retarder that was required conventionally to control alignment of the LC. However, the measured pretilt angle is only 0.04 degree so that disclination lines are generated for a cell that uses the in-cell retarder as an AL when the LC is tilted upward by a vertical electric field.

The results of the analysis of dyed rayon fabrics treated with persimmon juice by padding are as follows. Rayon fabrics were dyed repeatedly with persimmon juice by a padding mangle for the development of dyeability. The merits of padding-based dyeing were easier color reproduction (versus traditional hand dyeing) of hard to obtain colors and color fastness to light and laundering. The add on weight increased with the number of padding times, and the color of the dyed fabrics had red-yellow colors with low brightness and high chromatic colors. Properties of fabrics treated with persimmon juice were: $2^{nd}$ level of light resistance, $4^{th}-5^{th}$ perspiration fastness levels, rubbing fastness, and $3^{rd}-4^{th}$ washing fastness levels. Dyed fabrics exposed to UV light have a deep yellow-red color that increased lightness and darken when exposed to sunlight. Rayon fabrics of a treated premordant indicated strong yellow colors, especially fabrics with Fe mordant indicated greenish red-yellow colors. The direction of the weft and warp increased and improved water-repellent qualities that increased with the number of dyeing padding times and persimmon juice; however, there was less anti-crease resistance. In addition, fabrics had good antibacterial activity and deodorization.
