  • IPS and VA have evolved in various structures such as H-IPS, AS-IPS, and S-PVA gain more competitiveness. The new pixel structures inherently have more domains which cause disclination areas. The effect of disclination is no longer neglected in those structures. A new simulation tool based on FAST Q-tensor method enables one to predict the shape of disclinations and the resulting optical properties. It ensures more accurate results compared to vector-based simulation. We applied this simulation tool for the development of 26-inch wide monitor having H-IPS mode.

  • A modeling of the nucleation and dynamical behavior of defects from an inhomogeneous surface configuration using fast Q-tensor method is realized. On modeling the defect nucleation and dynamics, A fast Q-tensor method is applied. From the numerical modeling, we confirmed that surface inhomogeneity which makes strong strain energy in the local liquid crystal director field could cause defects. Experimental result has compared with numerical modeling in order to verify the simulation of the defect nucleation.

  • In this paper we model the liquid crystal director field in the Patterned Vertical Alignment (PVA) LC using the fast Q-tensor method, which can model multidimensional director configurations with defects in the liquid crystal director field. We observed the dynamic behaviors of the defect experimentally by applying the voltage and modeled the LC director field with defect in the active area of the PVA cell. As a result, we could also calculate the optical transmittance.

  • LCD business has grown up changing its strategy and main focus by the order of NBPC, MNT and TV for decades. The presence of PDP drives TV market more demanding. The performance of LCD is required to be improved to struggle against PDP. To strengthen the competitiveness in the market, IPS and VA have evolved in various structures such as H-IPS, AS-IPS, and S-PVA. The introduction of new structures which have multi domains requires the interpretation of disclination area. We developed a new simulation tool based on fast Q-tensor method. It enables us to predict the shape of disclinations and the resulting optical properties. We applied this simulation tool to the development of 26-inch wide monitor having H-IPS mode.

  • We model the nucleation and motion of defects in the liquid crystal display device with inhomogeneous surface by using fast Q-tensor method, which can calculate scalar order parameter S and nucleation of the defect in the liquid crystal director field. In order to model the defect, homeotropic aligned liquid crystal cell with step inhomogeneous electrode which has a height of $1{\mu}m$ is used. From the simulation, we can observe the nucleation and line of the defect from surface inhomogeneity and the experiment is performed for confirmation.

  • With the fast Q-tensor method, which can model the defect dynamics in a liquid crystal director field, the nucleation and dynamical behavior of defects is modeled. In order to model the defect, hormeotropic aligned liquid crystal cell with step inhomogeneous electrode which has a height of $1\;{\mu}m$ is used. From the simulation, we can observe the nucleation and line of the defect from surface inhomogeneity and the experiment is performed for confirmation. The experimental result is compared with numerical modeling in order to verify the simulation of the defect nucleation.
