We demonstrated a high speed liquid crystal (LC) display mode based on a nonchiral smectic C LC in an antiparallel planar geometry. In this antiparallel planar nonchiral smectic C (APNSC) LC mode, analog gray scales and wide viewing properties are achieved using a stepwise thermal annealing process (STAP). Because of an initially stable LC alignment in large area through the STAP, the APNSC LC mode exhibits the characteristics of fast response and high contrast ratio. This new APNSC mode is suitable for processing the dynamic image at a video rate in the next-generation LCDs.

We demonstrated a fast liquid crystal (LC) display mode based on a nonchiral smectic C LC in a twisted geometry. In this twisted nonchiral smectic C (TNSC) LC mode, the analog gray scales and wide viewing properties are achieved. The continuous gray scales in the TNSC LC mode are obtained in a dielectrically driving scheme as those in the nematic mode.

The side chain liquid crystal triblock copolymers (TBCs), which underwent phase transitions below their decomposition temperature, were prepared by copolymerization of poly(n-butyl acrylate) and a comonomer containing the mesogenic azobenzene group. The physical properties of TBCs in the distinctive transition temperature ranges were investigated in terms of the liquid crystal (LC) content in the copolymers. The phase transition temperatures traced optically, thermally and rheologically were well coincided one another and clearly exhibited the phase transition of smectic-nematic-isotropic with increasing temperature. In the smectic phase, increasing temperature made the liquid crystal system more elastic, but viscosity (${\eta}'$) remained almost constant. In the nematic phase, increasing temperature abruptly decreased ${\eta}'$ and G', ultimately leading to isotropic phase. Both smectic and nematic phases exhibited Bingham viscosity behavior but the former gave much greater yield stress at the same LC content.

In this paper, a general performance of the PSS-LCD or Polarization Shielded Smectic Liquid Crystal Display is discussed. This smectic base LCD does not use any spontaneous polarization, but uses induced polarization just sa me with current nematic base LCDs. Specific initial molecular alignment as well as specific cell design realizes ext remely fast optical response speed with native wide viewing angle. Moreover, this performance is provided by full compatible electronics for current conventional LCDs. A general performance of the PSS-LCD is introduced herein.

We report on an analog electro-optic effect in a nonchiral smectic C (NSC) liquid crystal (LC) mode with negative dielectric anisotropy in a transverse electrode configuration. Two-dimensional numerical simulations are executed to evaluate the display performances. The analog gray scales in the NSC LC mode are obtained in a dielectrically driving scheme.

A series of new symmetric TTF derivatives were designed and synthesized. This facile synthetic method provides an opportunity to prepare TTF-based LC candidates. This series of compounds exhibited smectic A phase based on coplanar TTF core. One of the LC compounds was used as a semiconductor layer to fabricate OTFT.

Rod-like polymerizable LC molecules having two different reactive groups, i.e. acryl and diacetylene groups were prepared. 4-Hydroxyphenyldiacetylenes were synthesized by the coupling reaction of 1-bromoalkynes with 4-ethynylphenol and then reacted with 4-(6-acryloyloxyalkyloxy)benzoic acid to give polymerizable LC molecules 4a-d. The mesomorphic properties of compounds 4a-d were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, polarized optical microscopy and X-ray diffractometry. Compounds 4a-c exhibited smectic and nematic phases, but compound 4d having a longest alkyl tail among the series formed only a smectic phase. Photopolymerizability of acryl and diacetylene groups was investigated by IR spectroscopy. An anisotropic polymer film could be prepared by selective polymerization of acryl groups with 365 nm UV light in the presence of a photoinitiator (2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone). The subsequent reaction of diacetylene groups with 254 nm UV light disrupted the anisotropic structure, suggesting that these LC molecules could be used for imaging on the film.

Phenylcyclohexyl (PCH) mesogen을 diglycidyl terephthalate의 2,5 위치에 치환시킨 새로운 액정성 에폭시 수지를 설계하였다. 이 물질의 액정성은 DSC(differential scanning calorimetry)와 POM(polarized optical microscopy)으로 분석하였다. 모든 액정성 에폭시 유도체는 가열 및 냉각 시에 모두 smectic상을 나타내는 enantiotropic한 성질을 나타내었다. 액정성 에폭시의 공융 혼합물을 통하여 액정 온도구간을 확장시켰다. 경화된 신규 액정성 에폭시는 $0.4W{\cdot}m^{-1}{\cdot}K^{-1}$의 높은 열전도도를 나타냈다. 높은 열전도도를 갖는 신규 액정성 에폭시는 전자 및 디스플레이용 복합소재로 이용될 것으로 기대된다.

용융 중합법을 이용하여 말단에 메틸 말레이미드(methyl maleimide) 반응성기를 가지며 방향족 에스터와 아 미드 결합을 포함하는 액정(liquid crystal, LC)을 합성하였다. 합성된 액정은 용액 캐스팅과 열처리를 거쳐 열경화 성 액정(liquid crystalline thermoset, LCT) 필름으로 제조되었다. 합성된 LC 및 LCT는 적외선 분광기(FTIR), 시차주사 열량계(DSC), 열중량 분석기(TGA), 열-기계 분석기(TMA), X-선 회절기(XRD) 및 가열판이 부착된 편광 현미경(POM) 등을 이용해서 각각 특성 분석을 하였다. 합성된 모든 액정은 스멕틱(smectic) 상을 보였으며 LC와 LCT들의 열적 성질은 주로 주사슬에 포함된 메소젠 구조에 영향을 받았다. 열팽창 계수(coefficients of thermal expansion, CTE)는 27.72~50.95 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ 사이의 값을 보였다.
