Abstract

In this paper, we analyzed the molecular behavior of IPS-LCDs and VA-LCDs by using numerical simulation. The numerical simulation was performed on the basis of Ericksen-Leslie continuum theory. To improve the accuracy of the calculation, we considered fluid balance equation and director balance equation at the same time. thus, we calculated the flow effect for both switching on and off states. As the results of simulation, we confirmed abnormal twist in IPS-LCDs and fast molecular behavior in VA-LCDs which could influence response time.
