We have newly developed transflective LCDs with a specific sub-pixel and the single cell gap structure. In our structure, the overall transmittance and reflectance has become higher than typical transflective LCDs. Furthermore, it can simplify the fabrication process of the transflective LCDs.

We have studied electro-optic characteristics of transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) using in-plane switching mode. Unlike previous transflective LCD using a dual gap structure and multi driving circuit, this transflective LCD has a single gap structure and a single driving circuit. In the voltage on state, the electric field is applied horizontally to the LC directors, and then homogeneously aligned LC directors at initial state is rotated to with the electric field. But the twist angle of the LC directors in reflective area is lower than transmissive area. As a result, it is possible to design the transflective LCD with a single gap and a single driving circuit. The transflective display associated with this LC cell exhibits a wide viewing angle in both reflective and transmissive areas.

We designed a low cost optical structure of transflective LCD that uses only a half number of retardation films compared to general active matrix transflective LCD. The prototype embodied by this design shows reasonable reflective and transmissive performance. This design would provide us thinner, lighter and cheaper product due to its reduced retardation film structure.

This paper proposes a transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) in a whole-pixel switchable configuration with a high aperture ratio using an electrophoretic particle layer (EPL). The switchable transflective LCD consisted of the liquid crystal layer as a display unit, and the EPL as a switchable mirror. The switching of the EPL between the mirror for the reflective mode and the transparency for the transmissive mode was performed by controlling electrophoretic nanoparticles with an applied voltage in a three-electrode structure. The single pixel was used as the whole transmissive or reflective mode that corresponded to the switchable EPL mirror. Thus, a transflective LCD with a high aperture ratio was obtained.

We have designed a single gap transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) driven by a fringe electric field and vertical field. The conventional FFS mode does not have an electrode on top substrate, it shows not only slow response time due to weak electric field but also slow discharging problem when electrostatic field is generated after fabricating the cell. To solve these problems, transflective LCD with ITO coated upper substrate was suggested but the transmittance was reduced significantly due to effects from vertical field. Hence, in the present paper, new transflective LCD with ITO coating only in the reflective region was characterized.

We have developed 14.1" XGA transflective panel for both transmissive mode and reflective mode. We designed new panel structure, optimized optical films and adopted pixel with high aperture and high transmittance color filter. This can be applied for mobile tool and sub-note without regard to environment.

This paper investgates the transflective liquid crystal displays (LCDs) associated with fringe-field switching (FFS) mode to achieve high image quality. In the past, several cell structures were used to fabricate transflective FFS LCDs. Their structures and characteristics are carefully examined to find their merits and demerits. In addition, we attempt to optimize cell parameters to achieve a single driving circuit.

We designed a transflective-type LCD using a twisted VA mode. Generally, a VA mode had a blue shift due to intrinsic properties. We solved this problem using spectroscopic compensation film. We used the front scattering film and negative C-plate to improve characteristics of the viewing angle and contrast ratio. As a result, we found that proposed the transflective-type TVA mode had a contrast ratio of about 80:1, a response time of 22 ms, and a reflectance of 25% in comparison with the standard MgO reflector.

We demonstrate a transflective liquid crystal display (LCD), doped with a chiral agent to produce a low helical twisting power, in a multimode configuration consisting of the homogeneous alignment and the hybrid alignment. The multimode transflective LCD with a single cell gap was fabricated using a single-step photoalignment technique with a self-masking process of an array of metal reflectors in the reflective region. In our configuration, the electro-optical disparity between the transmissive region and the reflective region was found to be significantly reduced by the low helical twisting power of the chiral dopant.
