We challenge to use reactive mesogen optical elements which can be coated inside LC cell. The reactive mesogens as retarder barrier requirements can be achieved between a high performance 2D mode and a low cross talk stereoscopic 3D mode. The fabrication of a 10.1" diagonal LCD which co-operates with a polarizer to from a parallax barrier, is described. In addition, the parallax barrier of reactive mesogens can easily control in mass production and can thus be coated as extremely LC cell, significantly reducing the thickness of LCD. Finally, we have successed to design a switchable 2D/3D displays using reactive mesogen optical elements which can be achieved 3D displays within glasses.

Reactive mesogen인 광경화성 액정은 광반응에 의해 분자들이 네트워크 구조를 형성하여 초기 액정 분자들의 배향을 유지한 상태로 필름을 만들 수 있다. 광경화성의 reactive mesogen과 광반응 그룹이 없는 네마틱 액정을 혼합하여 경화 전과 후의 액정 혼합물의 배향을 비교하였고, 비반응성 네마틱 액정의 양과 온도에 따른 액정필름의 복굴절 변화를 조사하였다. 네마틱 액정의 양에 따라 복굴절이 다른 필름을 얻을 수 있어 reactive mesogen을 이용한 광학 보상필름 응용 가능성을 확인하였다.

We propose advanced liquid crystal display (LCD) modes through surface modification using UV curable reactive mesogen (RM) mixed with alignment layers. The LC directors on the modified alignment layer are controlled and memorized by the polymerized RMs under an applied voltage. Using the method proposed here, we can improve the response time and viewing angle characteristics through surface controlled patterned vertical alignment (SC-PVA) mode and 8-domains PVA mode, respectively. Also, we found that the method can be applicable to fabricate multi-domain structures using multiple UV exposure as same as conventional UV alignment method.

We propose a method to control the pretilt angle of liquid crystal (LC) by doping a proper amount of UV curable reactive mesogen (RM) monomers in hometropic polyimide (PI). The intermediate pretilt angles are produced by anchoring competition between homeotropic PI and the polymerized RM which direction is along the LC molecules under electric field.

We investigated the dependence of the retardation dispersion on the polarization direction of ultraviolet (UV) light during the photopolymerization of self-organized smectic reactive mesogen (RM) molecules. RM retarder film that was photopolymerized with UV light linearly polarized parallel to the layer plane showed negative dispersion (ND) of retardation for a wide range of UV polymerization temperatures. On the other hand, film that was photopolymerized with unpolarized UV light showed negative dispersion in a narrow range of UV polymerization temperatures. With a certain UV polymerization temperature, the dispersion of retardation was converted from positive to negative, depending on the UV polarization.

고분자 배향막이 없는 순수 유리 기판을 이용하여 광반응성 액정의 배향을 유도하였다. 유리 기판을 러빙하여 액정 배향을 유도한 경우, 고분자 배향막을 사용하여 유도한 경우와 같이 액정을 러빙 방향과 평행하게 배향할 수 있는 것을 편광 FTIR, 편광현미경, 복굴절 측정 등의 실험을 통해서 알 수 있었다. 순수 유리 기판을 러빙하여 액정 배향을 유도하는 메커니즘은 러빙 과정에서 유리 표면에 묻어나온 고분자들이 러빙 방향으로 늘어서 분자간 상호작용을 통하여 액정 분자들의 배향을 유도하는 것이다.

유연사슬길이가 6인 4,4'-bis(6-hydroxy hexoxy)biphenyl (BP-6)의 메소겐 디올을 합성하였고, 이것을 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI)와 용액축중합하여 폴리우레탄 (MPU-6)을 합성하였다. 합성된 MPU-6는 $0.23{\sim}0.56 dL/g$의 고유점도를 보였다. MPU-6는 X-ray, 편광현미경으로부터는 액정을 형성할 수 있었으나, DSC로 분석 시에는 액정거동을 관찰할 수 없는 '가상액정'의 거동을 보였다. 또한 MPU-6의 분자량이 낮을수록 결정화 속도와 결정화 온도가 높음을 알 수 있었으며 이는 분자량이 낮을수록 고분자의 mobility가 증가함으로써 메소겐기의 배향이 용이하고, 이것이 기핵으로 작용하였기 때문으로 생각된다.

We fabricated a hybrid aligned film using reactive rod-like mesogen to reduce light leakage of twisted nematic(TN) cell in off-axis of the dark state. We proved that the fabricated compensation film has hybrid alignment by changing phase retardation according to polar angle. In this paper, we confirmed characteristics of compensation film through simulation results and found the matching factor of simulation results and experimental result. In result, the maximum pretilt angle of hybrid compensated film is $19^{\circ}$ which has phase retardation 0.1445.

We proposed a novel single gap transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) using liquid crystal with negative dielectric anisotropy. We designed cell structure driven by fringe electric field in the transmissive (T) part and vertical electric field in the reflective (R) part. In the device, high surface pretilt angle of the LC in the R-part is achieved through polymerization of an UV curable reactive mesogen (RM) monomer at surfaces. By optimizing the parameters, a newly developed transflective display has characteristics such as single gap and single gamma curve.

A single gap transflective liquid crystal display(LCD) driven by fringe electric field in the transmissive(T) region and vertical electric field in the reflective(R) region was designed. Because the pretilt angle is formed in $53^{\circ}$ through polymerization of an UV curable reactive mesogen(RM) monomer at the surface, the effective cell retardation $(d{\Delta}n_{eff})$ value of the R region becomes half of that in the T region where the LCs are homogenously aligned. Consequently, a transflective display driven by a vertical and fringe electric field with a single cell gap and single gamma curves is realized.
