In this paper, electro-optical characteristic of Nematic Liquid crystal (LC) with varying temperature in different LCD modes, namely Fringe Field Switching (FFS), In-plane switching (IPS), and Patterned Vertical Alignment (PVA) modes are investigated and compared. Electro optic me asurements suggest that rate of change of transmission with temperature in FFS mode was lowest and much more thermally stable as compared to IPS and PVA m odes. However the electro-optical characteristic of patterned vertical alignment (PVA) mode was most affected by changing temperature. The measured threshold voltage was found to be much more thermally stable in FFS and IPS modes than that of PVA mode.

We studied the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment capability by the Ion beam (IB) alignment method on a NDLC (Nitrogen doped Diamond Like Carbon) as a C:H thin film, and investigated electro-optical (EO) performances of the IB aligned In plane switching (IPS) cell with NDLC surface. A good LC alignment by IB exposure on a NDLC surface was achieved. Monodomain alignment of the IB aligned IPS cell can be observed. The good electro-optical characteristics of the IB aligned IPS cell was observed with oblique IB exposure on the NDLC as a-C:H thin film for 1min.

We studied the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) aligning capabilities by the UV alignment method on a a-C:H thin film surface. A good LC alignment by UV exposure on the a-C.H thin film surface at 200 ${\AA}$ of layer thickness was achieved. Also, a good LC alignment by the UV alignment method on the a-C:H thin film surface was observed at annealing temperature of 180 $^{\circ}C$. However, the alignment defect of the NLC was observed above annealing temperature of 200 $^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the good thermal stability of LC alignment by the UV alignment method on the a-C:H thin film surface can be achieved.

We have studied how rubbing direction affects generation of disclination line in transmissive microdisplay for $90^{\circ}$ twisted nematic (TN) mode with pixel size of $22.2{\mu}m$. The rubbing direction of bottom substrate is changed from $0^{\circ}$ to $-135^{\circ}$ with a decrease step of $45^{\circ}$, and the results show that the generation regions of the disclination line are of a smallest size in $-135^{\circ}$ direction. The results were the same although the pixel size decreased. Consequently, the use of proper rubbing direction of liquid crystal can help overcome the problems of low aperture ratio and low contrast ratio in transmissive-type microdisplays. In addition, the pretilt angle of initial liquid crystal is found to make an important contribution to generation of the disclination line.

In this paper, we have improved a novel high tilted optically compensated bend (OCB) (HTOCB) mode by using high tilt angle that was generated by the unique baking condition on the homeotropic alignment layer. The high tilt angle of liquid crystal (LC) was generated by new alignment process that tilt angle changed homeotropic state to homeogenous state using Hot-plate equipment; we obtained about $40\~50^{\circ}$ tilt angle with negative and positive dielectric anisotropy on the homeotropic polyimide (PI), and then LC tilt angle decreased as increasing baking temperature and time. At last, we obtained about $10^{\circ}$ with positive type NLC $({\Delta}n>0)$. Also, the LC tilt angle of positive type NLC $({\Delta}n>0)$ decreased as increasing rubbing strength at the same baking temperature and time. The novel LC operating mode (HTOCB) that used the high tilt angle by the new alignment method was improved. The response time of the novel HTOCB cell was faster than that of conventional OCB cell. We suggest that the developed the novel HTOCB cell using control of tilt angle on the homeotropic surface is a promising technique for the achievement of a fast response time and a high contrast ratio.

The liquid crystal (LC) aligning capabilities by the washing processes after rubbing on the two kinds of the rubbed polyimide (Pl) surface were studied. The polar anchoring energy of 4-n-pentyl-4'-cyanobiphenyl (5CB) increased with the rubbing strength RS on the two kinds of the rubbed PI surface. The polar anchoring energy of 5CB on the rubbed PI surface with alkyl side chains is larger than the rubbed PI surface with CONH moiety. Also, the surface ordering of 5CB on the rubbed PI surface with alkyl side chains is larger than the rubbed PI surface with CONH moiety. Therefore, the surface ordering of 5CB strongly depends on the polymers and washing process.

In this study, we investigated the generation of pretilt angle for nematic liquid crystal (NLC) in a cell with oblique non-polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation on polyimide (PI) surfaces. It was found that the monodomain alignment of the NLC is obtained with an angle of incidence of $70{\sim}85^{\circ}$ on PI surface. We consider that the monodomain alignment of NLC is attributed to anisotropic dispersion force due to photo-depolymerization of polymer on PI surfaces. Also, pretilt angle of NLC is generated about $3^{\circ}$ with an angle of incidence of $70{\sim}75^{\circ}$. It is considered that the pretilt angle generation in NLC is attributed to interaction between the LC molecules and the polymer surfaces.

In this paper, we investigated the generation of pretilt for nematic liquid crystal (NLC) in a cell with linearly polarized ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation on polyimide (PI) surface. The pretilt angle of the NLC increases with increasing the incident angle in the cells with S-wave polarized UV light irradiation on PI surface. It is considered that the pretilt angle of the NLC increased due to decreasing the UV light intencity. We suggest that the pretilt angle of the NLC is attributed to asymmetry triangular of the polymer surface with S-wave polarized UV light irradiation on PI surface. Also, we consider that the asymmetry triangular of the Polymer not formed with P-wave polarized UV light irradiation on PI surface. Therefore, the pretilt angle of the NLC is attributed to asymmetry triangular of the polymer surface with UV light irradiation on PI surface.

In this paper, we investigate fringe-field switching (FFS) mode cell by the ion beam (IB) alignment method on the a-C:H thin film, to analyze electro-optical characteristics in this cell. We studied on the suitable inorganic thin film for fringe-field switching (FFS) cell and the aligning capabilities of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using the new alignment material of a-C:H thin film An excellent voltage-transmittance (V-T) and response time curve of the IB-aligned FFS-LCD was observed with oblique IB exposure on the DLC thin films. Also, AC V-T hysteresis characteristics of the IB-aligned FFS-LCD with IB exposure on the DLC thin films is almost the same as that of the rubbing-aligned FFS cell on a polyimide (PI) surface.

In this paper, we propose a new optical thresold generator as a key-stream genrator for stream cipher systems. The random key-bit stream is generated by a digital generator that is composed of LFSRs and nonlinear ligics. Digital implementatin of a key-stream generator requires large memory to implement programmable tapping points. This memory problem may be overcome easily by using the proposed optical system which has the proberty of 2D parallel processing.To implement hte threshold generator optically, we use conventional twisted nematic type SLMs (LCDs). This proposed system is based on the shadow casting technique for the AND operation between taps and sregister stages. It is also based on the proposed PMRS method for modulo 2 addition. The proposed PMRS method uses the property of light's polarization on LCD and can be implemented optically using one LCD and some mirrors. One of the major advantages of the proosed system is that there is no limitation of the number of the progarmmable tapping points. Therefore, the proposed system can be applied for the 2D encryption system which processes large amounts of data such as 2D images. We verify the proposed system with some simulation.
