In this study, we investigated the generation of pretilt angle for nematic liquid crystal (NLC) in a cell with oblique non-polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation on polyimide (PI) surfaces. It was found that the monodomain alignment of the NLC is obtained in a cell with an angle of incidence of 70∼85$^{\circ}$on PI surface. We consider that the monodomain alignment of NLC is attributed to anisotropic dispersion force effect due to Photo-depolymerization of polymer on PI surfaces. Also, pretilt angle of NLC is generated about 3$^{\circ}$ with an angle of incidence of 70∼75$^{\circ}$. It is considered that the pretilt angle generation in NLC is attributed to interaction between the LC molecules and the polymer surfaces.

In this paper, the monodomain alignment of nematic liquid crystal(NLC) in the cell fabricated by one side transcription alignment method on PI surface with side chain were investigated. The LC alignment produced by the transcription alignment method is attributable to a memory effect of the NLC on Pl surfaces. We observed that the pretilt angle of NLC is generated about 3.6$^{\circ}$ in a cell with one side transcription alignment on PI surface. Also, the electro-optical(EO) performance of TN-LCD with one side transcription alignment method on PI surface will be discussed.

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.

본 논문에서는 LCD의 어두운 상태의 특성을 보완하기 위해 광대역 λ/4 보상판을 사용하여 단일 편광판 모드 반사형 쌍안정 TN LCD를 설계·제작하였다. 단일 편광판 모드에서 광대역 λ/4 보상판의 필요성을 이론적인 계산과 실험을 통해 확인하였고, 시험적ㅇ로 제작한 단일 편광판 모드 반사형 쌍안정 TN LCD는 기존 구조의 반사형 쌍안정 TN LCD와의 비교에서 더욱 밝은 디스플레이 특성을 나타내었다. 본 실험에서 우리는 10:1의 콘트라스트를 얻었다.

빠른 응답 속도와 높은 콘트라스트 비를 갖는 쌍안정 TN(BTN:Bistable Twisted Nematic)셀을 제작하여 전기 광학 특성을 조사하고 쌍안정 특성을 갖기 위한 BTN셀의 동작 조건 및 인가 파형의 특성을 조사하였다. 인가 파형의 reset펄스와 selection펄스의 크기와 폭이 BTN셀의 쌍안정 특성에 미치는 영향과 메모리 시간을 조사하였다. 또한 rubbing강도에 따라 pretilt각을 변화시켜 쌍안정 특성을 보이는 두께와 pitch와의 비의 범위를 구하였다.

In this study, we investigated pretilt angle generation and liquid crystal alignment by UV light irradiation during imidization of polyimide. Generated pretilt angle of NLC by using in-situ UV photo-alignment method was smaller than that of the conventional UV photo-alignment method. Also, generated pretilt angle of NLC tends to increase by annealing. We found that in-situ UV photo-alignment method has higher thermal stability of LC alignment, but it has a disadvantage to control pretilt angle.

A new photo-alignment material, copoly (PM4Ch-ChMA), copoly (poly (4-methacryloyloxy) chalcone-cholesterol methacrylate) was synthesized and the electro-optical (EO) characteristics for the photo-aligned vertical-aligned (VA)-LC display (LCD) were studied. Good voltage-transmittance (V-T) and response time characteristics for the photo-aligned VA-LCD with polarized UV exposure on the copolymer-1 (2%) surfaces for 1 min. were observed. EO performance for the photo-aligned VA-LCD decreased with increasing UV exposure time on a copolymer surface. Also, excellent V-T and response time characteristics for the photo-aligned VA-LCD with UV exposure on copolymer-2 and copolymer-3 surfaces for 3min. can be achieved.

The electro-optical characteristics of TN(twisted nematic)-LCD(liquid crystal display) with photo-dimerized on a PMCh(poly(4'methacryoyloxylchalcone)) surface using a new photo-dimerization method was studied. The excellent voltage-transmittance(V-T) curve of TN-LCD with photo-dimerized on a PNCh surface for 1 min. using a new photo-dimerization method was observed. Also, the voltage-hold-ing-ratio(VHR) of TN-LCD with photo-dimerized on a PMCh surface using a new photo-dimerization method is higher than that of conventional photo-dimerization method. Consequently, we suggest that the new photo-dimerization method. Consequently, we suggest that the new photo-dimerization method for LC aligning is the most promising rubbing-free techniques.

In this study, we have investigated the relationship between the generation of pretilt angle and the polarization component in cells with UV light irradiation on polyimide (PI) surface. It was found that the generated pretilt angle is about $1.4^{\circ}$ with S-polarized UV light irradiation of $75^{\circ}$ on PI surface; it may be attributed to the asymmetry triangular of polymer surface with oblique S-polarized UV light irradiation on PI surface. Also, we measured that the generated pretilt angle is about $2.0^{\circ}$ with oblique P polarized UV light irradiation of $75^{\circ}$ on PI surface. Consequently, we suggest that the generated pretilt angle of the NLC is attributed to the interaction between the LC molecules and the polymer surface with oblique polarized UV light irradiation on PI surface.

Berreman에 의해 제시된 액정 유체 방정식을 이용하여 쌍안정 TN 액정 셀의 여러 가지 파라미터 광 스위칭특성에 미치는 효과를 시뮬레이션을 통하여 연구하였다. 이로부터 쌍안정 TN LCD의 rising time과 delay time을 줄이는 액정 물질 및 셀 제작조건을 제시하였다. 고속응답을 위한 탄성계수는 K11은 크고 K22, K33 는 작은 것이 유리하고, 유전율 이방성, 회전 점성계수, 두께, 프리틸트 각, d/p등은 모두 작은 것이 유리하다. 특히 d/p는 고속응답 뿐만 아니라 0$^{\circ}$스위칭에 필요한 selection 펄스의 폭에 가장 많은 영향을 주는 중요한 파라미터이다.
