  • We propose a negative liquid crystal (n-LC) cell with parallel patterned electrodes for high transmittance and fast response. The proposed cell has higher transmittance and shorter response time than a conventional fringe-field switching cell using n-LCs, because the proposed cell does not have transmittance dips and does have a thinner LC layer.

  • The fringe-field switching (FFS) mode was known to exhibit both a wide viewing angle and high transmittance, especially when using the liquid crystal (LC) with negative dielectric anisotropy. In the device, the LC director rotates almost in-plane. However, in the bright state the device shows bluish and yellowish color along parallel and perpendicular to the LC director at off-normal directions since the LC director rotates only in one direction. Such a problem was greatly improved using a wedge shape of only pixel electrodes. In this way two different field directions exist in a pixel, enabling the LC director to rotate in two opposite directions. Consequently, owing to dual domain effect when using the LC with negative dielectric anisotropy, the viewing angle characteristics are greatly improved.

  • In this paper, to realize high speed position control of LDM (Linear DC Motor), the minimum time control method is applied. But, In this control method, calculation of non-linear function is required Therefore, in order to avoid this complex calculation, optimum switching of the Bang-Bang control is done on parabola type switching function established in the plane of phase. But, the sliding mode is occurred due to the modeling error of LDM and the variation of parameters. Thereby, the optimum 'control is not realized. In order to realize optimum control, the algorithm to modify switching function is proposed

  • Film compensation to suppress a light leakage in the dark state of fringe-field switching (FFS) at off normal direction was performed by optimizing retardation value of discotic (negative A) and TAC films including in-plane switching (IPS). The normal FFS mode shows wide viewing angle characteristics that region of CR 10:1 is over $70^{\circ}$ of polar angle in all directions. The optimized FFS cell exhibits much better performances than other methods do in terms of CR and color uniformity.

  • An industrial robot needs a simple and robust control algorithm obtaining high precision control performance in spite of disturbance and parameter's change. In this paper, for solving this problem, a new sliding mode control algorithm is proposed and applied to the trajectory control of a SCARA type robot. The proposed algorithm has diminished the chattering occurring in sliding mode by setting a dead band along the switching line on the phase plane. It shows that we can easily obtain a simple switching control input satisfying sliding mode in spite of regarding nonlinear terms of a manipulator and servo system as disturbance. A guideline for selection of dead-band width is determined by optimal value of cost function presenting magnitudes of chattering and error. By this algorithm, we can expect the high performance of the trajectory tracking of an industrial robot which needs a robust and simple algorithm.

  • Alignment pattern of checkerboard was constructed by the stylus of atomic force microscope. Orientational bistability of the nematic liquid crystal was realized on that frustrated surface alignment. Macroscopic orientational switching between two perpendicular directions took place by an appropriate in-plane electric field. The threshold electric fields decreased in both switching directions as temperature increased. The focused laser heated up only the limited domains in the cell including a light-absorbing medium. Irradiating the laser concurrently with an appropriate electric field, we switched the selected unit domains in the alignment pattern. The switched domains maintained stably the switched direction without the disturbance from the exterior. Extending and repeating this process, we realized extremely fine devices of bistable switching.

  • We present a fast-switching electro-optical device based on flexoelectro-optic effect in short pitch cholesterics oriented in uniform lying helix texture. The device has two operating modes: amplitude and phase modulation mode. The amplitude modulation mode is a fast in-plane switching of the device optic axis that enables to achieve a high percent of modulation of the transmitted light intensity whereas the phase mode gives a continuous change of the refractive index and thus of the phase shift of the transmitted light. By using a small concentration of diacrylate monomer and selecting the illumination conditions we have been able to create a inhomogeneous polymeric network mostly localized at both substrate surfaces and stabilize the two switching modes.

They include a novel array design and drive method with shared select lines, which leads to higher aperture ratio and a further reduction of module cost. A Color-On-Array DSD process and pixel layout compatible with In-Plane-Switching is also proposed.

  • We studied electro-optical (EO) performances of a vertical-alignment (VA)-in plane switching (IPS) cell on a photopolymer surfaces. The VA-IPS cell, dark in voltage-off state, reveals bright uniformity in all directions due to the dual domainlike dierector configuration in the voltage-on state. For voltage-transmittance (V-T) measurement, the transmittance characteristics of the VA-IPS cell on the photopolymer surface was better than that of the VA-IPS cell on a polyimide(PI) surface.
