  • The authors report methods of fabrication singlelayer color cholesteric liquid crystal displays (CLCDs). A single-layer CLCD has been prepared from a polymerstabilized cholesteric liquid crystal. The unique feature of the polymer stabilization is in that the electrically switched colors preserve high reflectivity. A bistable single-layer CLCD has been prepared by the formation of polymer barrier walls and light-tuned cholesteric pitches to reflect blue, green and red color sub-pixels.

  • In the paper, we investigated the Bragg reflective cholesteric display based on polymer stabilization. We studied the bistability in the polymer stabilized cholesteric texture (PSCT) films and baused on which we achieved wider viewing angle though imperfect planar texture.

  • We synthesized chiral choleseric liquid crystalline monomer p-phenylene bis-(p-3-acryloxy-2(S)-methylpropoxy)benzoate (1) and achiral nematic liquid crystalline monomer, p-phenylene p-acryloxy-6-hexyloxy-p-octyloxybenzoate (2) for the construction of cholesteric polymer network with a pitch gradient. In this research we attempted to synthesize cholesteric polymer film which have a wide reflection bandwidth in the region of visible wavelength with the synthesized chiral cholesteric monomer 1 and nematic monomer 2 under various photopoly merization conditions. We succeeded to construct cholesteric polymer film network with a pitch gradient covering more than 200 nm bandwidth in the visible wavelength by diffusion controlled photostructuring method.

  • A flexible reflective cholesteric liquid crystal display (ChLCD) is fabricated on plastic substrates by using the pixel isolation method. The polymer walls between pixels and the polymer layers in the pixels are formed by two-step UV irradiation. Electro-optical response of the ChLCD with polymer wall and layer is studied and compared with conventional bistable ChLCD cells.

  • The reflective type color filter for the liquid crystal displays (LCD) was produced using cholesteric liquid crystal monomers whose phase is characterized by the unique optical features of selective reflection. Periodic micrometer scale hemi-spherical photoresist (PR) patterns were formed on glass substrates by thermal reflow method after photolithography. Cholesteric color filter films for red, green and blue light reflections were then produced and the viewing angle dependence was investigated and compared with that of reflected light on the non-patterned substrates.

  • We report flexible, bistable cholesteric displays utilizing polyester (PET) substrates with printed internal black electrodes. The black electrodes consist of carbon ink dispersed in butyl carbitol using a patented roll-to-roll gravure-offset printing. A transparent conducting polymer printed on PET serves as the counter electrode. The electro-optic material is a chiral nematic mixture dispersed in a low-concentration polymer binder. The device can be switched between scattering (black) and reflective (vibrant green) states upon application of an electric pulse. The internal black electrode enhances the contrast of the display and simplifies the roll-to-roll manufacture of flexible displays.

  • We demonstrate an electro-optical device based on the flexoelectric effect of a short-pitched cholesteric liquid crystal. By using a dual-frequency switchable nematic, a small amount of chiral dopant and a small amount of phase-separated polymer localized on the surface, we were able to create a device that operates in amplitude (flexoelectric) and phase(dielectric) modes. At high frequency the dual frequency liquid crystal suppresses the phase mode at higher voltage, which improves the switching speed, and thereby preserving the in-plane-switching mode.

  • We fabricated a stressed liquid crystal cell by mixing liquid crystal with a photo-polymer. By carefully choosing the mixing ratio between liquid crystal and the polymer, and by suitable mechanical shearing of the substrates, we demonstrated feasible electro optical properties for displays.

  • 선택 반사를 보여주는 콜레스테릭 액정의(cholesteric liquid crystal; CLC) planar 배열이 유도되는 메카니즘을 CLC 셀의 선택 반사율과 FTIR $C{\equiv}N$ 피크 세기를 측정하여 조사하였다. 배향막을 사용한 경우보다는 planar 배열 유도가 완전하지는 않았지만 shear force를 이용하거나 또는 고분자 기판을 연신하여 배향막을 사용하지 않은 상태에서 planar 배열을 유도하였다. CLC의 planar 배열이 유도되는 메카니즘은 기판 표면에 접촉하는 액정분자들이 한 방향으로 늘어서면, 그 액정분자 위에 CLC의 나선 구조들이 기판에 수직으로 형성되며 planar 배열이 유도되는 것이다.
