The switching mechanism of multi-domain vertical alignment mode LCD and delayed on response time phenomenon in special conditions are investigated. A modified DCC (Dynamic Capacitance Compensation), DCCII has been developed for the fast response time performance in PVA TFT-LCD TVs. DCCII applies a pre-tilt voltage to addressed pixels during the previous frame in addition to an overshoot voltage. In result, the response time less than 8 msec, has been obtained for all moving images through the DCCII technique.

This paper investigates the effect of the electrode edge of a patterned vertical alignment (PVA) liquid crystal (LC) device on the viewing angle characteristics. In general, a transmissive LCD applies an LC layer with half-wave retardation for a bright state and with zero retardation for a dark state. The retardation of the LC layer would be distorted in each point, however, when a voltage is applied because of the non-uniform voltage distribution in the electrode edge effect. In this paper, the feasibility of the full effect of the electrode edge on the viewing angle property is considered, and the optical viewing angles of the VA LCD with a uniform half-wave LC layer and the PVA LCD with a practical non-uniform LC layer are compared.

In this paper, vertically aligned (VA) liquid crystal (LC) modes were investigated using the alkyl chain ordering effect of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) prepared on the anisotropic inorganic surface. On the anisotropic surface prepared through oblique ion beam irradiations, the SAM molecules are adsorbed, producing macroscopic alkyl chain ordering, which can determine the pretilt direction of the vertically aligned LC molecules through the intermolecular interactions on the surface.

We propose an optical configuration for a vertical alignment (VA) liquid crystal (LC) cell to eliminate the off-axis light leakage in the dark state. The proposed compensation configuration consists of a positive A-film, a positive C-film and a negative C-film. The optical design is performed on a Poincar$\acute{e}$ sphere. This configuration has a better tolerance to the wavelength dispersion, as the polarization trace could self-compensate it. From calculations, we show that the proposed VA LC cell can improve the viewing angle characteristics by compensating for the light leakage in the diagonal direction.

We have developed a high performance vertical alignment TFT-LCD (Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display), that shows a high light transmittance, and wide viewing angle characteristics with an unusually high contrast ratio. In order to optimize the electro-optical properties we have studied the effect of cell parameters, multi-domain structure and retardation film compensation. With the optimized cell parameters and process conditions, we have achieved a 24" wide UXGA TFTLCD monitor (16:10 aspect ratio 1920X1200) showing a contrast ratio of over 500:1, panel transmittance near 4.5%, response time near 25 ms, and viewing angle higher than 80 degree in all directions.

Temporal dual gamma drive technology employing the 120Hz refresh rate was developed to enhance the off-axis viewing quality in patterned vertical alignment mode. The color shift ${\Delta}u'v'$ from on-axis to off-axis (60 deg.) for pale orange color, (R,G,B) = (196,124,96), was below 0.01, and the power exponent of gamma curve for off-axis viewing angle (60 deg.) was about 1.8, when the gamma curve for on-axis was set with power exponent of 2.4. The off-axis image distortion index was below 0.180 in contrast to the normal case ${\sim}0.23$. To elevate the response speed of liquid crystal in the intra-frame, the voltage below threshold voltage of liquid crystals was used.

We have studied a novel vertical alignment liquid crystal cell. At initial state of a cell with rubbed parallel on top and bottom substrates, the vertically aligned LCs are twisted by $180^{\circ}$. However, after a critical voltage is applied to the cell, the configuration of the LC changes to optically compensated splay form, where the mid-director lies parallel to the substrate and thus the LC has two hybrid alignments around center.

Electro-optical characteristics of new multi-domain vertical-alignment (MVA) liquid crystal displays (LCDs) with negative dielectric anisotropy on a homeotropic photopolymer were studied. Good voltage-transmittance (V-T) curves by the new MVA-LCD on the homeotropic photo-polymer were obtained. Also, the stable response time of MVA-LCD on the homeotropic photopolymer can be achieved. The viewing angle of the new MVA-LCD could be improved by the grating groove with UV exposure and development on the photo-polymer.

Poly(amic acid) precursors were prepared by mixing various main chain dianhydrides, main chain diamines and side chain diamines. The side chain diamine has an alkylbicyclohexyl group as a side chain. The copolyimide films, produced by casting the poly (amic acids) solution, exhibited the vertical alignment property without the rubbing process in the range of the curing themperature from $90^{\circ}C$ to $240^{\circ}C$ for 1h. The thermal and surface properties of the poly(amic acids) depending on the curing temperature was examined.

We have developed a novel vertical-alignment(VA) -$\pi$ cell mode that provides a wide viewing angle and fast response times for nematic liquid crystal(NLC) with negative dielectric anisotropy on a homeotropic polymide(PI) surfaces. Good voltage-transmittance curves and low driving voltages were achieved with the new VA-$\pi$ cell mode without a negative compensation film. Iso-viewing angle characteristics using the new VA-$\pi$ cell mode without a negative compensation film was also successfully observed. As well a fast response time of 31.7 ms for a new VA-$\pi$ mode was measured. Consequently the iso-viewing angel fast response time and low driving voltage characteristics using a VA-$\pi$ cell can be achieved.
