In this paper, we have studied on the optimal design of the optical compensation film for the TN-LCDs. To have wide viewing angle panels, several methods such as multi-domain method, optical path method, and phase compensation method have been proposed. Among these methods, this paper focused on the phase compensation method. In the phase compensation method, the phase retardation generated from the optical birefringence for the off-axis incident is compensated by using optical films with refractive anisotropy. To compensate the phase retardation of the TN-LCDs, we have proposed design concept for the biaxial optical films and analyzed the optical performance for the proposed structures. The calculation of the dynamic motion of the liquid crystals was based on the Ericksen-Leslie theory and the optical performance of the TN-LCD was calculated from the Extended Jones Matrix Method. From the results, we have confirmed that the optical characteristics of the TN-LCDs with the biaxial films have been improved considerably compared with the TN-LCDs compensated by the combination of the uniaxial films.

We have studied the viewing angle control using a twist nematic liquid crystal display (TN-LCDs). These TK-LCDs have the characteristics, of which is not good image quality, for examples low Contrast ratio and gray scale inversion problems at upper and down viewing direction. TN-LCDs have the function of switching between the wide viewing mode and narrow viewing angle mode using two tilted LC layers. Tilt angles of the two LC layers, $14^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ were required in both wide viewing angle and narrow viewing angle modes, respectively. Consequently, this device is compatible with two image performances of which the wide viewing angle mode and Narrow viewing angle mode.

In this study, the threshold voltage and the response time of thermal stressed TN-LCDs showed the same performances on none thermal stressed TN-LCDs. There was little change in TN cells. Also, while increasing thermal stress time, the transmittances of TN-LCDs on the rubbed PI surface were almost the same, But the thermal stability of TN cell was deteriorated.

In this study, the threshold voltage and the response time of thermal stressed TN-LCDs showed the same performances on no thermal stressed TN-LCDs. There was little change of value in TN cells. Also, the transmittances of TN-LCDs on the rubbed PI surface were almost same while increasing thermal stress time. However, the thermal stability of TN cell was decreased by the high thermal stress for the long duration. Residual DC was decreased as the thermal stress increases. Especially, when TN cell was stressed more and more by heating, residual DC was changed a lot. As a result, the residual DC property of LCD in projection TV is affected very much by heating.

This paper discusses on new two LCD technologies featured by the fast electro-optic response:one is polymer-stabilized FLCDs that exhibit V-shaped electro-optic (EO) switching called PSV-mode FLCDs with response time of 400 ${\mu}$ s; and the other is TN-mode LCDs that exhibit a frequency modulation response (called PM-TN LCDs)and a peculiar sensitivity to the high frequency component of driving voltage waveforms resulting in a short decay time constant of 5ms and an enhancement in the over-driving that yields short response time of 1ms between two gray levels.

We have developed twist nematic liquid crystal displays (TN-LCDs), of which the viewing angle can be controlled. The TN-LCDs have the function of switching between the wide viewing mode and narrow viewing angle mode using two tilted LC layers. Tilt angles of the two LC layers, $14^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ were required in both wide viewing angle and narrow viewing angle modes, respectively. In this way, the viewing angle range in terms of contrast ratio 5:1 can be switched from $120^{\circ}$ to $60^{\circ}$.

DuPont 社의 광폴리머를 홀로그램 기록매질로 사용하여, 반사형 LCD에 적용할수 있는 단색의 홀로그래픽 반사판을 설계 및 제작하였다. 홀로그램 동작파장을 514nm로 하여 기록함으로써, 녹색 영역에서 가장 밝은 이미지를 구현할 수 있었다. 이미지의 방행을 표면방사와 분이시킴으로써 높은 콘트라스트 미를 얻을수 있는데, 제작한 홀로그래픽 반사판을 TN-LC cell에 적용하여, 6:1의 on/off 콘트라스트 비를 얻었다.

This paper introduces 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl) pentacene (TIPS pentacene) doped liquid crystal (LC) alignment properties on a rubbed polyimide (PI) layer as a function of the doping concentration of TIPS pentacene. Pretilt angles, photomicrographs, and electro-optical properties of TIPS pentacene doped LCs were comparable to those of pure LCs. However, TIPS pentacene in a LC medium supported twisted nematic-liquid crystal displays (TN-LCDs) to improve electro-optical properties. The threshold voltages observed in the TN cells decreased as the TIPS pentacene concentration increased. In addition, suitable response times were observed in TN cells.

A stamping-assisted rubbing technique for generating bidirectional alignment in the fabrication of wide-viewing twistednematic (TN) liquid crystal displays (LCDs) was developed. A patterned layer of a fluorinated acrylate polymer was transferred onto the first rubbed alignment layer prepared on a substrate by stamping. The fluorinated acrylate polymer provides a protective layer that covers the first alignment layer during the second rubbing process to facilitate the bidirectional alignment of the LC molecules. The LC cell in the twisted geometry with two bidirectional-alignment layers showed stable electro-optic properties and wide-viewing characteristics. The stamping-assisted rubbing technique serves as a mask-free alignment method of producing multidomains for wide-viewing LCDs.
