A new SRAM pixel circuit with RESET Transistor of a LCOS display module was designed for a pico-projector application. A dual-block PWM method was also proposed to realize the field sequential color system having only one LCOS panel. 0.29 inch LCOS panel in SVGA resolution was fabricated and the proposed dual-block PWM method was tested with it. Discontinuity of brightness curve was caused due to multi-pulses and it was improved by the adoption of proper mapping table. With the proposed SRAM with RESET pixel circuit and dual-block PWM method, the test images were successfully demonstrated.

The current panels for liquid crystal display (LCD) TV sets are all characterized by pins placed on two sides. To manufacture one type of panel, a dedicated mask is needed, and the production line should be started once. Moreover, the whole panel needs to be removed if a dead pixel is found. If the panel, however, will first be fabricated with pins placed on four sides and then divided by a cross-cut into four equal-sized panels with pins placed on two sides, one set of masks can be used to manufacture two types of LCD panels, which was referred to by the authors as dual mode. In this paper, the concept of the dual mode and its differences from the conventional way of producing panels are introduced. Its advantages in boosting production efficiency, improving the product's good rate, and lowering the production cost are also described based on case studies. Of particular importance is the fact that the dual mode is very suitable for the trial production of very-large-area LCD TV sets.

A replica-molding method of fabricating a dual-gap substrate for transflective liquid crystal (LC) displays is demonstrated. The dual-gap substrate provides homeotropic alignment for the LC molecules without any surface treatment and embedded bilevel microstructure on one of the two surfaces to maintain different cell gaps between the transmissive and reflective subpixels. The proposed transflective LC cell shows no electro-optic disparity between two subpixels and reduces the panel thickness and weight by 30% compared to the conventional transflective LC cell, which has two glass substrates.

A dual-cell-gap transflective liquid crystal display (TR-LCD) with identical response time in the transmissive and reflective regions is demonstrated. In the transmissive region, strong anchoring energy condition is used to decrease the response time, while in the reflective region weak anchoring energy condition is used to increase the response time. The simulated dual-cell-gap TR-LCD has good performances.

We propose a dual in-plane parallel electrode structure of a vertical configuration of a helix-deformed ferroelectric liquid crystal (HDFLC) mode for better brightness than a single in-plain electrode case. This structure provides high brightness in addition to the analog gray scale capability, fast response, and wide-viewing characteristics. In contrast to a conventional HDFLC in a planar geometry, smectic layers arrange themselves parallel to the substrates and thus extremely uniform alignment of molecules in a large area is naturally achieved in our new configuration.

LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) commonly used as an output device has a drawback of slow response time compared with CRT display. This drawback causes motion blur especially when an abrupt intensity change occurs in an image sequence as time goes on. To overcome the problem of slow response time overdriving technique has been used in TCON of LCD. In this technique, the previous frame data has to be compressed and stored in an external memory. Considering both chip size of TCON and computational complexity, AM-BTC has been applied to the 8bit HD display driver. However, the conventional method is not suitable for 10 bit Full HD because 10 bit Full HD data is much larger than that of 8 bit HD data. Being applied to 10 bit Full HD display driver, the conventional method increase cost by enlarging the external memory size of TCON or deteriorates image quality. In this paper, we propose dual BTC image coding technique for Full HD display driver that is an adaptive coding scheme according to morphological information of each sample block. Through experiments, it is verified that the proposed Dual BTC method performs better than the conventional method not only quantitatively but also qualitatively.

In this paper we have constructed three dimensional images and examined structural failure on thin film transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display (LCD) by using dual-beam focused ion beam (FIB) and IMOD software. Specimen was sectioned with dual-beam focused ion beam. Series of two dimensional images were obtained by scanning electron microscopy. Three dimensional reconstruction was constructed from them by using IMOD software. The short defect between Gate layer and Data layer was found from the result of three dimensional reconstruction. That phenomena made the function of the gate lost and data signal supplied to the electrode though the Drain continuously. That signal made continuous line defect. The result of the three dimensional reconstruction, serial section, SEM imaging by using the FIB will be the foundation of the next advanced study.

We have developed a new driving method named TROPHY(Talented Role-playing Technology with Dual Polarity sustainer in Hybrid Mono board). In this method, the sustain voltage is halved compared to the conventional method and the number of power sources is reduced by voltage level unification during the reset, address and sustain period. The hybrid mono board was especially developed to implement those technologies. Therefore, we can lower the cost with the TROPHY compared to the conventional one. It is suitable technology to improve the reliability of circuit and image sticking problem. We can also reduce the number of driving boards and the EMI problem comparing to those of the conventional method.

This paper presents a measurement system of mechanical property using dual servo system. There are many kinds of method to measure material properties such as tensile test, indention and bending test. It is highly required to measure the properties of nano-sized material and structure.

This paper describes a clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit that supports dual data rates of 2.7Gbps and 1.62Gbps for DisplayPort standard. The proposed CDR has a dual mode voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) that changes the operating frequency with a "Mode" switch control. The chip has been implemented using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process. Measured results show the circuit exhibits peak-to-peak jitters of 37ps(@2.7Gbps) and 27ps(@1.62Gbps) in the recovered data. The power dissipation is 80mW at 2.7Gbps rate from a 1.8V supply.
