The development of LCD Simulation program has been targeted to the design and estimation of LCD in an efficient, reasonable and proper method. In developing this program, we have got the theoretical construction for analysis of LCD. Moreover, we've applied CAE to the field of LCD, and thus we could help finding the optimal condition of LCD design or new type of LCD. This software can be applied for the modes such as TN, mono-STN, B/W STN(DSTN, FSTN), color STN, TFT, reflective modes and the program can be developed for other modes.

A structure and a design of device were developed to fabricate large-scale active matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) display with good color purity and high aperture ratio. With these technologies, we developed a full color 14.1 inch WXGA AMOLED display. For the integration of OLED on an active matrix a-Si TFT backplane, an efficient top emission OLED is essential since the TFT circuitry covers a large position of the pixel aperture. These technologies will enable up the OLED applications to larger size displays such as desktop monitors and TVs.

As the digital TV markets rapidly growing, many manufacturers introduce large size flat screen TV units. There are two different display types available to large size models which are plasma and TFT-LCD. Since both are constructed with thin large panels that are mostly fragile to even moderate mechanical shock inputs. Some large size panels are severely resonated by the acoustic sound generated TV which deteriorates video quality. Recognizing the potential problems of large displays, accurate measurement of the panels is to be an essential task for the reliable design. Measurement of mechanical properties of a thin large crystallized panel such as TFT-LCD display with traditional material testing equipments is challenging. Since TFT-LCDs are constructed with combination of brittle glass panels, polymer sheets, and liquid crystal, their properties are not only anisotropic but also usually non-linear. Accurate measurement of the properties often requires very expensive facilities. Especially when the size of the test sample is as large as 40-inch or wider, direct measurement cost is prohibitive. Even worse, machining of the large TFT-LCD to make a smaller size specimen that could be fit into a material tester is not possible because of liquid crystal leakage. A new method fer the measurement of elastic modulus of large TFT-LCD panel is presented in this article. The suggested method provides a simple, economic, and user-friendly way fer measuring the elastic modulus of large panels with considerable level of accuracy.

TFT-LCD display system is nowadays one of power-hungry components in portable products; technique of power reduction is thus essential for production of mobile phone. In this work, we minimize the display power, using computationally intelligent statistical methodology. Compared with a conventional design, 68.474% reductions on the current consumption could be obtained for a 2.2-inch of TFT-LCD display system of mobile phone. The total power consumption of the display system consisting of the backlight system and current consumption of display panel is thus successfully reduced form 68.305mW to 64.06mW (about 6.215% reductions).

TFT-LCD(Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display)는 표시장치로서 실용화된 후 많은 상품에 적용중이다. 그러나, LCD는 자체 발광능력이 없으므로 그후면에서 LCD 화면을 밝혀주는 BLU(Backlight Unit)를 필요로 한다. BLU는 내부 광원으로 밝기가 균일한 평면광을 만들어 LCD 화면을 균일하게 면조사하는 역할을 한다. LCD가 적용되는 분야중 Note PC에는 광원으로 CCFL(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp)가 적용되어 왔지만, 최근 고휘도, 박형화, 저소비 전력을 달성하기 위해 CCFL로는 한계가 있어 LED(Light Emitting Diode)를 적용한 BLU를 제작하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 점광원인 LED 적용한 LED에 있어서 요구되는 휘도 균일성을 향상시키기 위해서는 LED광원이 적용된 BLU의 외관 품질 향상을 위한 도광판 입광부 구조 최적화를 광추적 Simulation을 통해 예측하고 향상시킬 수 있는 구조를 제안한다. Simulation결과, 외관품질 개선을 위해 도광판 입광면에 130도의 Serration과 휘도를 향상하기 위해 도광판 밑면에 렌즈 형상의 바 구조를 도출해 적용한 결과 외관품질향상과 휘도향상을 얻었다.

The backlight unit (BLU) is used as a light source of TFT liquid-crystalline-display (TFT-LCD) module. In this backlight unit, one of important components is the light guide, which is usually made of transparent polymers. Currently, the screen-printing method is mainly used for the light guide as a manufacturing process. However, it has limitation to the flexibility of three-dimensional optical design. In the present paper a new alternative manufacturing method for the light guide with low-cost is proposed. This manufacturing method is named as direct surface forming (DSF), which is very similar to the well-known hot embossing except for partial contact between mold and substrate. The results of this new manufacturing method are presented in terms of processing condition, dimensional accuracy, productivity, etc.

We report a novel simulation method to calculate optical transmission considering the real paths of optic introduced in a unit pixel of TFT-LCDs using three-dimensional molecular director simulation of the tensor model. The simulation of optical path transmission profile was carried out by calculating new permittivity considered the real paths of optic in liquid crystal cell. As a result, it was clarified that the electro-optic characteristics such as movement of disclination line, contrast ratio and transmittance profile show a large difference according to the viewing angle compared with the conventional method.

In this paper, we proposed a novel TFT-LCD pixel structure to compensate ${\Delta}V_p$, which is a maximum value of 1.82V in conventional pixel structure without compensation. We achieved a maximum value of 60mV in proposed pixel structure by integrating a dummy switch TFT in each pixel. The proposed TFT-LCD pixel structure with a remarkably reduced ${\Delta}V_p$ allows ultra high picture quality AMLCDs.

As the TFT-LCD panels become larger and provide higher resolution, the distributed capacitive and resistive lines induce the propagation delay, reduce the TFT-on time and deteriorate the pixel chargingratio. A number of the compensation methods, like the H-LDC (Horizontal Line Delay Compensation), have been proposed to compensate the propagation delay of the large and high resolution panels [1]. These methods, however, require the comparatively accurate gate propagation delay estimates at each column driver. In this paper, by observing the actual gate and data waveform from 15-inch XGA TFT-LCD panels, we could predict the propagation delay along the row and column line.

We analyzed the effect of a pixel and all the inter-electrode capacitances in a unit pixel of TFT-LCDs on the gray scale capability. The pixel and all the inter-electrode parasitic capacitances were obtained from the tree dimensional profiles of potential distribution and molecular director considering lateral fields generated at the edge of the pixel. To obtain the RMS and kickback voltages of the pixel, we constructed an equivalent circuit of the panel containing all the parasitic capacitances. The calculation was performed though H-SPICE. As results, we confirmed that the pixel becomes smaller, the effect of parasitic capacitances on the gray scale capability becomes larger.
