Fringe-field switching mode which has a horizontal and vertical electric field exhibits high transmittance and wide viewing angle characteristics. In the FFS mode, a passivation layer between common and pixel electrodes exists, which functions as preventing current leakage of fringe-field. In this paper, we have studied LC behavior, transmittance and operating voltage characteristics with applied voltage as a function of the passivation layer thickness and defined optimal value of the layer to be about $0.5{\mu}m$.

We investigated the electro-optic characteristics of a fringe-field driven twisted nematic (TN) display using a LC with negative dielectric anisotropy depending on electrode structures. The fringe-field driven TN mode known to exhibit wide viewing angle and excellent color characteristics over a wide viewing range and high transmittance. However, when the electrode width and distance between them is large enough, the transmittance is lower than the conventional vertical field-driven TN mode. By narrowing the electrode width and distance, the transmittance reaches the same value of the conventional TN mode.

We have designed a single gap transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) driven by a fringe electric field, in which the LCs are homogeneously aligned in the initial state. In the reflective and transmissive areas, the degrees of the rotation of the LC director are $22.5^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$, respectively. Utilizing this mechanism and an in-cell retarder with a quarter-wave plate that is used below the LC layer, the transflective LCD using fringe-field switching (FFS) mode is realized.

We report Optically-Detected Magnetic Resonance (ODMR) study on Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) centers in diamond. The experiment can easily be conducted with basic optics and microwave components. A diamond crystal having a high-density NV center is suitable for the ODMR study. The magnetic field dependence of ODMR spectrum allowed us to determine the orientation of the diamond crystal. In addition, we measured the variation of the ODMR spectrum as a function of the excitation laser power. Thermal heating induced by optical absorption caused the monotonic decrease of zero field splitting. The contrast of the ODMR peak, however, increased and, then, began to decrease, indicating the optimal laser power for recording the ODMR spectrum.

In a square cavity, the flow phenomena in the surrounding of the bubble attached at the upper cooled solid wall were studied by using a thermo-sensitive liquid-crystal tracer and image processing techniques. This method offers the advantage of measuring the entire flow field in a selected plane within the fluid at a given instant of time in contrast to point by point method like T/C. Quantitative data of the temperature were obtained by applying a colour-image-processing to the. visualized image. As the growing of a bubble, In a bubble size appears the flow phenomena which the direction of flow is reversed in the entire temperature and flow field. The observed phenomena are described with regard to thermocapillary convection.

In this study, we report simulation results of single-panel LCOS (liquid crystal on silicon). Reflective LCOS microdisplays are widely used in various projection and near-eye application. For one panel system, liquid crystal response time is an important variable. The panel must switch fast enough to support the display of Field color sequential with high field rates. In order to have fast response and good contrast, a vertical alignment (VA) cell was used in this study. With suitable selection on LC parameters like temperature, viscosity, elastic constant and birefringence, it is possible to get response time of around 2ms from a 2.0 um-thick vertical alignment cell. This result also indicates an ease of production control on 2.0 um cells than 1.0 um cells.

In this study, the selective-wettability-inscription (SWI) technique for the wet-etchingless fabrication of surface microstructures applicable to wide-viewing liquid crystal displays (LCDs) on plastic substrates was demonstrated. On the basis of the selective wetting of the photopolymer, the bi-level microstructures were spontaneously formed to serve as spacers for maintaining uniform cell gap and protrusions for the generation of multi-domains. The LC cell that has bi-level microstructures shows good extinction in the field-off state and a wide-viewing property in the field-on state. The SWI technique would be useful for the fabrication of flexible displays on plastic substrates.

A novel method is proposed for controlling the distance of an image plane in Fourier holograms using varifocal electric-field-driven liquid-crystal (ELC) lenses. Phase Fresnel lenses are employed to reduce the thickness and response time of the ELC lenses. The voltages applied to the electrodes of the ELC Fresnel lens are adjusted so that the lens has the same retardation distribution as an ideal lens. The focal length can be controlled by changing the retardation distribution with the applied voltages. Simulations were conducted for the image reconstruction of Fourier holograms with various focal lengths of the ELC Fresnel lenses. The simulation results indicate that the distance of the image plane can be properly controlled with the varifocal ELC Fresnel lens.

We have studied a electrically controlled birefringence (ECB) mode for field sequential liquid crystal display (FSLCD). We measured response time of the ECB mode. The ECB mode exhibiting fast response time, high transmittance, low operating voltage and adequate viewing angle. The positive liquid crystal (LC) is better than negative LC on dielectric anisotropy, birefringence and rotational viscosity. So that, the ECB mode is one of strongest candidate for FSLCD application.

The Electro-Rheological (ER) fluid has been used to the ultraprecision polishing of single crystal silicon as new polishing slurry whose properties such as yield stress and particle structure changed with the application of an electric field. In this work, it is aimed to find the effective parameters in the ER fluid on material removal in the polishing system whose structure is similar to that of the simple hydrodynamic bearing. The generated pressure in the gap between a moving wall and a workpiece, as well as the electric field-induced stress of the mixture of ER fluid-abrasives, is evaluated experimentally, and their influence on the polishing of single crystal silicon is analyzed. Moreover, the behavior of abrasive and ER particles is described.
