  • In this study, we have investigated the characteristics of the response time and the viewing angle on twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) and amorphous (a) TN-LCD without rubbing. To measure the transmission-voltage, response time, and viewing angle characteristics, we prepared three kinds of LC cells and then studied the surface liquid crystal alignment effect. We studied that the response time on a-TN-LCD is fast compared to the TN-LCD. We suggest that the weak anchoring strength is attributed to the fast response time on a-TN-LCD. Also, we obtained the uniform viewing angle characteristics on a-TN-LCD. From these results, we consider that the liquid crystal alignment on LCD device are very important factor for electro-optical characteristics.

  • We have investigated electro-optical characteristics in three kinds of twisted nematic (TN) cells on the polyimide surface. The threshold voltage and the response time of thermal stressed TN cells were same that of no thermal stressed TN cells. There were little change of value in these TN cells. On the other hand, transmittance of no thermal stressed TN cells were better than that of thermal stressed TN cells. Transmittances of TN cells on the polyimide surface decreased by increasing thermal stress time. Moreover, the residual DC of the thermal stressed TN cells increased as increasing thermal stress temperature and time. Therefore, thermal stability of TN cells were decreased gradually by giving high thermal stress for a long time.

  • 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.

  • We demonstrate a hybrid device with high ambien t-contrast-ratio (>133.8:1) under any ambient co nditions by vertically integrating a reflective LCD and a transparent OLED. The twisted nematic LC cell is placed beneath the OLED to improve dev ice transmittance by 53.8% due to the asymmet ric emission from both-sides of the transparent OLED.

  • In this paper, we studied on electro-optical (EO) characteristics of photo-aligned twisted nematic (TN)-LCD. We obtained that uniform LC alignment in TN-LCD with linearly polarized ultraviolet (LPUV) light irradiation on polyimide (PI) surface increases according to increasing irradiation time for 10 to 60 min. The voltage-transmittance and response time characteristics of photo-aligned TN-LCD with UV light irradiation time of 60 min were almost same in comparison with conventional TN-LCD were observed. From the results, we suggest that photo-aligned TN-LCD with LPUV light irradiation on PI surface is useful in applying LCD as for rubbing-free treatment method.

  • A novel method to measure the cell gap of a single-polarizer reflective twisted nematic liquid crystal (TN LC) cell by using a rotating polarizer technique is proposed. By rotating an LC cell, we can measure the cell gap of an LC cell as well as the wavelength dependence of retardation under the condition that the twist angle is known.

  • We designed and fabricated a single polarizer mode bistable twisted nematic liquid crystal display by employing a wide-band λ/4 retardation film to enhance the dark state property. We theoretically and experimentally confirmed the necessity of a wide- band λ/4 retardation film in a single polarizer mode. We obtained brighter image than previous reflective BTN LCDs.

  • We fabricated a bistable TN LCD with 180$^{\circ}$ twist angle and confirmed that it has a fast switching response time and a high contrast ratio. We also investigated the effects of the amplitude and width of the reset and selection pulses on a bistable TN LC cell and the conditions of the bistability and the memory time. The range of d/p values showing the bistability is determinded for the pretilt angle according to the rubbing depth.
