Electro-optic characteristics of reflective hybrid aligned liquid crystal (LC) cell driven by fringe field using a nematic LC with positive dielectric anisotropy have been studied. Optimized optical configurations are achieved by using a single polarizer, half-wave film and a cell with quarter-wave retardation. The simulation results shows an optimum cell retardation of $0.30{\mu}m$. This value may allow a practical cell gap larger than $3{\mu}m$, which makes it easy to control in the manufacturing process. Furthermore, this LC cell with optimized cell parameters shows low wavelength dispersion and the contrast ratio greater than 5 over exists about $100{\circ}$ in vertical direction and $160{\circ}$ in horizontal direction. Also, when using the LC with positive dielectric anisotropy rather than negative dielectric anisotropy, the display shows low power consumption and fast response time.

We have performed computer simulation and experiment to obtain electro-optic characteristics of reflective hybrid aligned nematic (R-HAN) cell driven by fringe field, in which the cell consists of polarizer, optical compensation film, LC layer and reflector. Conventional R-HAN cell driven by fringe field using only the LC layer shows high wavelength dispersion at dark-state and thus viewing angle characteristic is strongly wavelength-dependent. In order to improve this demerit, we added one optical compensation film to conventional R-HAN cell. The display with optimized cell parameters shows low wavelength dispersion at dark-state and exhibits a wide viewing angle without the occurrence of grey scale inversion over a wide range of viewing angles and the contrast ratio greater than 5 over exists about 120$^{\circ}$ in vortical direction and 160$^{\circ}$in horizontal direction. Experimental results show good agreements with theoretical results and fast response time.

We challenge to use reactive mesogen optical elements which can be coated inside LC cell. The reactive mesogens as retarder barrier requirements can be achieved between a high performance 2D mode and a low cross talk stereoscopic 3D mode. The fabrication of a 10.1" diagonal LCD which co-operates with a polarizer to from a parallax barrier, is described. In addition, the parallax barrier of reactive mesogens can easily control in mass production and can thus be coated as extremely LC cell, significantly reducing the thickness of LCD. Finally, we have successed to design a switchable 2D/3D displays using reactive mesogen optical elements which can be achieved 3D displays within glasses.

We have performed computer simulation to obtain electro-optic characteristics of reflective hybrid aligned nematic liquid crystal displays driven by fringe field. The results show that the optimal retardation value of the cell is $0.289{\mu}m$, which allows for the cell to have a practical cell gap of larger than $3{\mu}m$ when manufacturing. A reflectance of the dark state is only 0.114% for an incident light 550nm. At this condition, the light efficiency of white state reaches 92.7%. Further, we have studied a new reflective display with polarizer, optical compensation with half plate, LC plus reflector. The display with optimized cell parameters shows low wavelength dispersion and the contrast ratio greater than 5 over exists about $120^{\circ}$ in vertical direction and $160^{\circ}$ in horizontal direction.

편광필름용 점착제를 합성하기 위해 아크릴 단량체를 사용하여 용액중합이 수행되었다. 사용된 아크릴 단량체는 2-ethylhexylacrylate, butylacrylate, acrylic acid였으며, 비율은 점착제의 유리전이온도 $-40^{\circ}C$에 맞추어 2-ethylhexylacrylate: butylacrylate: acrylic acid=25:50:3.5로 하였다. 중합된 점착제에 커플링제를 1 wt% 첨가하였을 때 점착제의 광투과율이 매우 증가하였다. 이러한 현상은 커플링제의 Si-O 결합이 액정셀에 대한 점착력을 향상시킨 결과임을 알 수 있었다. 가교제를 단량체 대비 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 wt% 첨가하였을 매 가교제의 함량이 증가할수록 초기점착력은 감소하고 응집력은 증가하였다. 접촉각 분석에서 가교제의 함량이 증가할수록 표면에너지가 커져 접촉각이 감소하였다. 내열성 측정에서 가교제의 증가나 온도변화에 관계없이 아크릴 점착제는 우수한 내열성을 보였으며 절단면의 관찰에서 가교제의 함량이 증가할수록 절단면이 매끄럽고 깨끗하였다. 종합적으로 점착제의 초기점착력, 응집력, 표면에너지, 절단면의 상태 등을 고려하여 적정 가교제의 투입량을 1.0 wt%로 확정하였다.

In this paper, the optical conditins of a reflective multi-color STN-LCD based on electrical control of birefringence is designed on the poincare sphere. First of all, the angles of polarizer and analyzer for the best color purity are decided in the configuration without a retardation film. A retardation film is introduced for a bright white in the range of the applied voltage. The sretardation and the angle of the retardation film are also decided on the poincare shpere. The test cell is farbricated and its measured spectral transmittance and the CIE chromaticity diagram agree well with simulations.

A single-gap and single-gamma transflective liquid-crystal (LC) display using patterned vertical alignment (PVA) mode was designed. In the device, a vertical electric field drives a vertically aligned LC to tilt down to optimize polarization efficiency. Electrodes of transmissive and reflective area were patterned $22.5^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ with respect to the polarizer so that a tilt-down direction of the LC director was $22.5^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ in the reflective and transmissive regions, respectively. In the device, the cell gap was the same for both regions, and the gamma curve matched each other in both regions because tilt angle of LC director was the same according to the applied voltage. Moreover, the dark state was irrespective of the cell retardation value at normal direction, which was highly important in massive fabrications. The switching principle and electro-optic characteristics of the device are reported herein.

CLC는 주기적인 나선구조 때문에 빛을 선택적으로 반사하는 특성을 보이는데, 반사 파장대역이 넓은 CLC를 광반응에 의한 상 분리 현상을 이용하여 제조하였다. CLC 액정 셀에 의하여 반사되는 빛의 파장은 노광하는 빛의 세기가 작을수록 그리고 UV 흡수 dye의 양이 증가할수록 범위가 증가하여 초기 50 nm의 반사 파장대역을 300 nm까지 넓힐 수 있었다. 광경화된 CLC 액정 셀 내에 상 분리에 의하여 형성된 다양한 CLC 피치 분포를 SEM으로 관찰하였고, ATR-IR 실험을 이용하여 CLC피치 분포가 넓어지는 것이 상 분리에 의한 것임을 확인하였다.

We have studied an optically compensated splay (OCS) mode driven by fringe electric field. The OCS configuration obtained by applying voltage to vertically aligned LCs shows a dark state when an optic axis of the OCS cell coincides with one of crossed polarizer axis. When the fringe electric field is applied, the LC director rotates in plane above whole electrode surface, giving rise to the high transmittance, the low operating voltage and wide viewing angle simultaneously.

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.
