Abstract
In this study, we investigated about electrooptics characteristic of three kinds of TN cell on the polyimide surface. Monodomain alignments of thermal stressed TN cell over temperature of liquid crystal isotropic phase were almost the same as that of no thermal stressed TN cells. However, the thermal stressed TN cells have many defects. Also, threshold voltage and response time of thermal stressed TN cells show the same performances as no thermal stressed TN cells. There were little changes of value in these TN cells. However, transmittances of TN cells on the polyimide surface decrease with increasing thermal stress time. Finally, the residual DC voltage of the thermal stressed TN cell on the polyimide surface shows decrease of characteristics as increasing thermal stress time. Therefore, the thermal stability of TN cell was decreased by high thermal stress for the long times.
