This paper reports the fabrication of a lenticular liquid crystal (LC) lens array with thermally tunable focus and with the function of a convertible lens type, using the surface structure of a UV-curable polymer and a twisted-nematic (TN) LC cell. The TN LC cell makes the LC lenticular lens function as a converging or diverging lens by controlling electrically the polarization of input light. Therefore, the focal lengths for both the converging and diverging lenses, which can be switched from the TN cell, can be tuned by changing the effective refractive index of the LC by Joule heating of the transparent electrode. As a result, the focal length of the lens with the E7 LC was changed continuously from 8.7 to 31.2 mm for the converging lens type and from -9.8 to -14.2 mm for the diverging lens when the temperature was increased from 25 to $56^{\circ}C$.

The recombinant plasmids harboring a heterologous gene coding mouse endostatin were transfected and expressed stably in Trichoplusia ni Tn 5B1-4 cells and Bombyx mori BmN cells, respectively. Recombinant endostatin expressed in the stably transformed Tn 5B1-4 and BmN cells was secreted into the medium. BmN cells are relatively lower in maximum cell growth and recombinant endostatin production than Tn 5B 1-4 cells. Recombinant endostatin was also purified to homogeneity using a simple one-step ${Ni^2+}$ affinity fractionation method. Purified recombinant endostatin inhibited endothelial cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. The concentration at half-maximum inhibition $({ED_50})$ for recombinant endostatin was approximately 0.35 ${\mu}g$/ml.

Electro-optical (EO) performances for the twisted-nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) photoaligned with linearly polarized UV exposure on the poly［4- (fluorocinnamate) phenylmaleimide](PFCPMI) surfaces using a new photodimerization method were investigated. For a new UVLPH (UV linearly polarized during heating) photodimerization method, the photopolymer layers were exposed by linearly polarized UV dichroic polarizer without a specific UV filter during heating at $150^{\circ}C$. The Voltage-transmittance (V-T) curve without backflow bounce in the photoaligned TN-LCD with UV exposure on the PFCPMI surface for 10 min using the UVLPH photodimerization method was observed. For response time measurement, the transmittance characteristics of the photoaligned TN-LCD using the UVLPH photodimerization method on the photopolymer surface was better than that of the photoaligned TN-LCD using the UVLP photodimerization method under a room temperature.

In this study, the threshold voltage and the response time of thermal stressed TN-LCDs showed the same performances on none thermal stressed TN-LCDs. There was little change in TN cells. Also, while increasing thermal stress time, the transmittances of TN-LCDs on the rubbed PI surface were almost the same, But the thermal stability of TN cell was deteriorated.

We have studied the viewing angle control of a twist nematic liquid crystal display (TN-LCD). The TN-LCD exhibits a bad image quality along vertical direction, due to characteristics such as low contrast ratio and gray scale inversion. The proposed new TN-LCD has the function of switching between the wide viewing mode and narrow viewing angle mode using two tilted LC layers at both sides of a TN-cell. Tilt angles of the two LC layers, $14^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ were required in both wide viewing angle and narrow viewing angle modes, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to improve the polluted stream water quality by pilot-scale five different constructed wetlands (CWs). Cell 1 to 3 are newly designed 2SFCW (Surface-subsurface flow CW) with 1 to 3 flow shifters (FS) in the middle of the wetland system. Cell 4 and 5 are control CW (CCW), but Cell 5 is the same type as Cell 3. The FS, which converts the route of surface and subsurface flow between two wetlands connected in series, was able to enhance the treatability of TN via nitrification and denitrification and of SS due to filtration and sedimentation. The void fraction and dispersion number of Cell 1, 2 and 3 obtained from the RTD analysis were found to be 0.73 and 0.17, respectively. COD and TP removal efficiencies of Cell 1 to 3 were similar to that of Cell 4 and 5. SS removal efficiencies of Cell 1 to 3 and 5 with FS were 5-10% higher than that of Cell 4 without FS. TN removal efficiencies of Cell 1 to 3 were 3-14% higher than that of Cell 4 and 5. The average $R^2$ values of COD, SS, TN and TP obtained from nonlinear regression analysis were similar to the results of other researchers.

Holographic diffuser(HD) layer was demonstrated to be located inside LC cell for a transmissive LCD of TFT-array on Color Filter structure. Master pattern of this layer was generated by holographic method and this pattern was replicated by the stamping of the master pattern on UV resin. Combined with a compensation film, TN-mode LCD with this layer showed improved viewing angle characteristics, especially along the up-down direction.

We developed new WV-TN panel which has 170/170 viewing angle and 8ms response time. This viewing characteristics almost catch up with those of VA. To extend the viewing angle we optimized the cell design and LC parameters. This new technology strongly increase the demand of TN monitors especially for the monitor market larger than 19"

본 논문에서는 IT(In-plane switching foisted nematic) 모드를 기반으로 광 투과 특성을 개선시킨 Pseudo-TN IPS(Pseudo-Twisted Nematic In-Plane Switching) 모드를 새롭게 제안하고 그 광 투과 특성을 분석하였다. PTN-IPS 모드의 경우 개구율을 향상시켜 투과율 면적을 향상시킴으로써 종래의 IT 모드보다 약 25%정도의 높은 광 투과 특성을 나타내었으며, 전압인가에 따른 광 투과율의 변화가 선형적이므로, 광 투과율 조절을 위한 액정의 제어가 IT 모드에 비해 용이함을 확인하였다. 또한, IT 모드에 비해 수평방향 대비비는 약 8%정도 특성이 열화 되었으나 수직 방향에 있어서는 약 20%이상의 특성개선을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이와 더불어, 기존 IT 모드가 가지고 있는 샐 갭에 대한 특성 및 장점을 가지고 있어, 차세대 액정 셀을 개발하는데 유용하게 사용될 것이라 생각된다.
