An electrostatic discharge (ESD) or a noise supplied from the outside has an effect on communication between the timing controller (TCON) and the memory element (EEPROM) through the interface between the timing controller and the memory element in liquid crystal displays (LCD). Therefore, we must apply ESD protection methods to LCD operating circuits for a normal operation. Our ESD protection circuit is to prevent from bi-directional communication errors between TCON and EEPROM due to an electrostatic discharge (ESD).

For LCD-TVs with full capability to show moving pictures and LCD monitors for multi media use, it is necessary that the switching times of Liquid Crystal (LC) mixtures are within one frame (16.7ms). In order to achieve faster switching times, new LC materials have been identified, mainly focusing on the further reduction of the rotational viscosity (${\gamma}1$).

For the fast growing Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) TV market, it is essential to make the LCD panels to show moving images without any visual difficulties such as blurring or tailing. Owing to reduction of the cell gap and the improved Liquid Crystal (LC) mixtures with low viscosity, it is possible that our S-IPS TFT-LCDs feature a response time (R/T) as fast as 1-frame time (16ms) for a white-black operation and less than a 16rns in all gray levels without Over Driving Circuit (ODC) technology. Currently, mass production of the large size IPS panels with high speed has been successfully achieved. In order to achieve faster response time, new LC mixtures have been developed, optimizing the physical properties of rotational viscosity (${\gamma}$1) and elastic constants (Kii). Also, the LC mixtures with high elastic constant allow us to increase the cell gap. In this paper, realization of fast switching time in IPS mode with optimized '${\gamma}$1/Kii' parameter in the LC mixtures forms the core of this paper.

In the present study, we propose Monte Carlo simulation that takes into consideration the interface phenomena between liquid crystal and substrate. We use rigid model molecules of liquid crystal and substrate. Interface is generated using potential field that induces decomposition of molecules. We use hard spherocylinders as model liquid crystal molecules. Substrate is modeled as region composed of shorter spherocylinders. Our results show that there is a case in which nematic order is reinforced in the vicinity of rubbed substrate.

In this paper, a general performance of the PSS-LCD or Polarization Shielded Smectic Liquid Crystal Display is discussed. This smectic base LCD does not use any spontaneous polarization, but uses induced polarization just sa me with current nematic base LCDs. Specific initial molecular alignment as well as specific cell design realizes ext remely fast optical response speed with native wide viewing angle. Moreover, this performance is provided by full compatible electronics for current conventional LCDs. A general performance of the PSS-LCD is introduced herein.

반사형 STN-LCD (supertwisted nematic liquid crystal display) 는 많은 display에서 사용되고 있는 LCD mode 중의 하나이다. 그러나 현재 많이 사용되는 반사형 STN-LCD는 그림 1과 같이 한 장의 polarizer와 두장의 retardation film을 사용하는 구조이므로 각각의 component에 대한 parameter들에 의해 display의 표시 성능이 좌우된다. 먼저 Reflective STN-LCD의 보상에 필요한 parameter를 살펴보면, 그림 1과 같이 5개 ( $\alpha$, ø$_1$, ø$_2$, 각 retarder의 retardation : Δnd$_1$, Δnd$_2$)의 parameter의 결정이 필요하다.

Fast response characteristics of twisted nematic liquid crystal display (TN-LCD) cell with different nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) and cell gap on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface were studied. High transmittance and fast response time of the TN-LCD on the rubbed PI surface were achieved by using high birefringence ($\Delta$ n) and low cell gap. It is considered that the transmittance and response time of the TN-LCD on the rubbed PI surface decreased as $\Delta$ nd decrease.

We demonstrate a transflective liquid crystal display (LCD), doped with a chiral agent to produce a low helical twisting power, in a multimode configuration consisting of the homogeneous alignment and the hybrid alignment. The multimode transflective LCD with a single cell gap was fabricated using a single-step photoalignment technique with a self-masking process of an array of metal reflectors in the reflective region. In our configuration, the electro-optical disparity between the transmissive region and the reflective region was found to be significantly reduced by the low helical twisting power of the chiral dopant.
