An Indium Zinc Oxide(IZO) transparent conductive layer was deposited on a large size glass substrate by using magnetron dc sputtering method with varying a deposition temperature. As the deposition temperature decreased to a room temperature, the sheet resistance of IZO film increased. But this deposition temperature range is included in an applicable to a device. From a standpoint of the sheet resistance, the differences of the sheet resistance were not great and the uniformity of the layer was uniformed around 10%. Crystallization particles were shown on the surface of the layer as deposition temperature increased, but these particles were not shown on the surface of the layer as deposition temperature decreased to the room temperature. It didn't make a scrap of difference in a transmittance of varying deposition temperature. Therefore, it is concluded that IZO thin film manufactured by the room temperature deposition condition can be used as a large size transparent conductive layer of a liquid crystal display device.

Temporal dual gamma drive technology employing the 120Hz refresh rate was developed to enhance the off-axis viewing quality in patterned vertical alignment mode. The color shift ${\Delta}u'v'$ from on-axis to off-axis (60 deg.) for pale orange color, (R,G,B) = (196,124,96), was below 0.01, and the power exponent of gamma curve for off-axis viewing angle (60 deg.) was about 1.8, when the gamma curve for on-axis was set with power exponent of 2.4. The off-axis image distortion index was below 0.180 in contrast to the normal case ${\sim}0.23$. To elevate the response speed of liquid crystal in the intra-frame, the voltage below threshold voltage of liquid crystals was used.

Three ring type LC compounds substituted with isothiocyanato group and fluoro atoms in phenyl ring were synthesized, and blended with KL-series LC mixtures for TV application of TN and IPS-mode. Clearing temperature of new LC mixtures are shown $10{\sim}35{\square}$ higher than commercial mixtures. And response time was also improved $10{\sim}20%$ faster than conventional LC mixtures.

The recent Bistable Nematic ($BiNem{(R)}$) LCD technology presents long term bistability, high level passive matrix multiplexing and high optical quality. The BiNem device, based on anchoring breaking, needs specific low anchoring strength materials - alignment layers and liquid crystal mixtures. We present here our approach to develop nematic mixtures with wide enough temperature range and low zenithal anchoring energy.

An ultra-thin reflective flexible LCD film has been demonstrated. The 30% thickness of the display can be reduced by applying a quarter-wave-plate film as upper substrate. A low temperature alignment material and special designed photo spacer were applied in this new display. The bending behavior was improved by reduced thickness.

In this work, we proposed a reflective antiferroelectric liquid crystal display (AFLCD) using a half-wave cell whose inplane tilt angle is $22.5^{\circ}$. To check the validity of our design, we fabricated a reflective half-wave AFLC cell of which inplane tilt angle is $24.9^{\circ}$, and measured VIS reflection spectra, contrast ratio and response time. In the results, the half-wave AFLC cell in the reflective configuration exhibits high brightness, high contrast ratio of 20:1, and fast response time of $700{\mu}s$.

A symmetric-viewing inverse-twisted-nematic (ITN) liquid crystal display (LCD) with alternating alignment layers was developed using a stamping-assisted rubbing (SAR) technique. A patterned layer of a fluorinated acrylate polymer was transferred onto the first rubbed vertical-alignment layer prepared on a substrate by stamping. The fluorinated acrylate polymer provided a protective layer covering the first rubbed alignment layer during the second rubbing process, which promoted the vertical alignment of the LC molecules. The LC cell in the ITN geometry with two orthogonally rubbed alignment layers showed symmetric-viewing characteristics with fourfold symmetry. The SAR technique was shown to be a mask-free alignment method of producing multidomains for symmetric-viewing LCDs.

A liquid crystal device with switchable dynamic and memory modes was investigated and developed. The proposed device reveals the splay, $\pi$-twist, and bend states via selective switching among them. In the dynamic mode, the device is operated in the bend state, which exhibits a wide viewing-angle and a fast-response-time due to its self-compensated bend structure and flow-accelerated fast response time, respectively. In the memory mode, the permanent memory characteristics in the splay and $\pi$-twist sates are obtained, respectively. The switching mechanisms of the tristate device are also proposed.

Viewing angle controllable liquid crystal display (LCD) associated with fringe-field switching (FFS) mode with high image quality is proposed. In the device, one pixel is composed of main and sub pixels, in which adjacent sub pixel is patterned with pixel electrodes direction orthogonal to the adjacent one. In this way, light leakage can be generated in the all viewing angle directions except the normal direction, realizing view angle controllable LCD in both horizontal and vertical directions.

In this study the new photo-alignment material copoly(PM4Ch-ChMa)(copoly (poly (4-methancryloyloxy)chalcone-cholesteryl methacry late)) was synthesized, Also, the liquid crystal (LC) aligning capabilities and the electro-optical(EO) characteristics for the photo-aligned vertical-aligned(VA)-LC display(LCD) were studied. The monodomain alignment of the NLC for the photo-aligned VA-LCD by linearly polarized UB exposure on the Photo-dimerized copoly(PM4Ch-ChMA) surface was observed,. Excellent Voltage-transmittance characteristics for the VA-LCD photo-aligned by polarized UV exposure on the copoly (PM4Ch-ChMA) surfaces for 1 min was achieved. The response time of the VA-LCD photo-aligned by polarized UV exposure on the copoly (PM4Ch-ChMA) surfaces for 1 min was 39.3 ms, We suggest that the photo-dimerized chacone group increased with increasing UV exposure time, which then contributes to a low response time of the photo-aligned VA-LCD on the copoly (PM4Ch-ChMA) surfaces.
