We have developed a transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) with a single cell gap and a low twisted nematic (LTN) mode in combination with a self-integrated retardation layer. The retardation layer was made of UV curable liquid crystalline material in one step of photo masking process and has both the homeotropic and the planar parts. The proposed transflective configuration has advantages in a simple fabrication process, and the possibility for a single driving scheme due to the similarity between the transmittance and the reflectance.

The effects of polarity of the polymer on transcription-aligned twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) on various the polyimide (PI) surfaces were investigated. The monodomain alignment of nematic (N)LC is obtained in cells fabricated by transcription alignment method on PI surface with medium polarity. The LC alignment using transcription alignment method is attributed to polarity of the polymer. The threshold voltage of transcription-aligned TN-LCD decreases with increasing the polarity of the polymer on three kinds of the PI surfaces. The threshold voltage of transcription-aligned TN-LCD on PI surface with high polarity is almost the same compared to rubbing-aligned TN-LCD. The response time of transcription-aligned TN-LCD decreases with the increasing the polarity of the polymer on all PI surfaces. The decay time of transcription-aligned TN-LCD is slow compared with the rubbing-aligned TN-LCD.

The development of efficient and precise handling of an liquid crystal display (LCD) panel has been addressed as the sizes of LCD panels become much larger than ever. The majority part of LCD panel handling is conducted by industrial robots for the cost reduction and the quality control. A challenging problem, vibration of the panel, can be found when the robots are utilized for handling LCD panels. The vibration causes the poor product precision and the low productivity. The characteristics of LCD panels, which are the high size-to thickness ratio, the high elasticity, and the high brittleness, are the major sources of the vibration This paper introduces the vibration attenuation techniques to overcome the difficulties encountered in the LCD production using the industrial robots.

In this paper, we studied the electro-optical(EO) performance of photo-aligned twisted nematic(TN)-liquid crystal display(LCD) with oblique non-polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation on polyimide (PI) surface. The monodomain alignment of photo-aligned TN-LCD is obtained with an angle of incidence of $85^{\circ}$ on PI surface. Also, we observed that the voltage transmittance and response time characteristics of photo-aligned TN-LCD is almost same compared to rubbing treated TN-LCD. Finally, we measured that the voltage-holding-ratio(VHR) of photo-aligned TN-LCD is almost same compared to rubbing treated TN-LCD.

We investigated the liquid crystal (LC) alignment phenomena using a-C:H and a-C:F:H thin films. Homogeneous alignment is obtained using ion beam treated hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H) thin films. Homeotropic alignment is obtained using F treated a-C:H thin films, namely, fluorinated amorphous carbon (a-C:F:H) thin films. We investigated the relationship between the surface properties of amorphous carbon based alignment layer and LC alignment phenomena.

The new process for hybrid silicon thin film transistor (TFT) using DPSS laser has been developed for realizing both low-temperature poly-Si (LTPS) TFT and a-Si:H TFT on the same substrate as a backplane of active matrix liquid crystal display. LTPS TFTs are integrated on the peripheral area of the panel for gate driver integrated circuit and a-Si:H TFTs are used as a switching device for pixel in the active area. The technology has been developed based on the current a-Si:H TFT fabrication process without introducing ion-doping and activation process and the field effect mobility of $4{\sim}5\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ and $0.5\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ for each TFT was obtained. The low power consumption, high reliability, and low photosensitivity are realized compared with amorphous silicon gate driver circuit and are demonstrated on the 14.1 inch WXGA+ ($1440{\times}900$) LCD Panel.

In this study, we investigated liquid crystal (LC) alignment with ion beam (IB) that non contact alignment technique on polyimide and electro-optical characteristics of twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) on the polyimide under various ion beam angles. In this experiment, polyimide layer was coated on glass by spin-coating and Voltage-transmittance(VT) and response time characteristics of the TN cell were measured by a LCD evaluation system. The good characteristics of the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment with the ion beam exposured polyimide surface was observed. In addition, it can be achieved the good EO properties, and residual DC property of the ion beam aligned TN cell on polyimide surface.
