We have developed an novel vertical-alignment (VA) - $\pi$ cell mode that provides a wide viewing angle and fast response times for negative dielectric anisotropy nematic liquid crystal (NLC) on a homeotropic polyimide (PI) surfaces. We had the good voltage-transmittance curves and low driving voltages were achieved with the novel VA - $\pi$ cell mode without negative compensation film. Iso-viewing angle characteristics using the novel VA - $\pi$ cell mode without negative compensation film of NLC was also successfully observed. As well a fast response time of 31.7ms for the novel VA - $\pi$ cell mode was measured. Consequently, It is seen that by using the novel VA - $\pi$ cell mode the iso-viewing angle, fast response time, and low driving voltage characteristics can be achieved.

Blending effects for generating a pretilt angle in nematic liquid crystal (NLC) with negative dielectric anisotropy on the blended polyimide (PI) of homeotropic and homogeneous alignment surface were studied. Also, we investigated the EO performances for the advanced VA-$\pi$ cell using this homeotropic blended PI surface. A many decrease of tilt angle on the polymer surface to blend homeotropic PI and homogeneous PI with side chain type was measured, and the tilt angle decreased as blended ratio and rubbing strength increase. The blended effects for generating a pretilt angle were clearly observed, and the many decrease of tilt angle can be achieved by using the blended PI surface. The electro-optical (EO) characteristics using the advanced VA-$\pi$ cell using the homeotropic blended PI surface than that of conventional VA cell can be improved. We suggest that the developed advanced VA-$\pi$ cell on a homeotropic blended PI surface is a promising technique for the achievement of a fast response time, and a high contrast ratio.

Also, we investigated the EO performances for the advanced VA- $\pi$ cell using this homeotropic blended PI surface. A many decrease of tilt angle on the polymer surface to blend homeotropic PI and homogeneous PI with side chain type was measured, and the tilt angle decreased as blended ratio and rubbing strength increase. However, a small decrease of tilt angle on the polymer surface to blend homeotropic PI and homogeneous PI with main chain type was measured. The blended effects for generating a pretilt angle were clearly observed, and the many decrease of tilt angle can be achieved by using the blended PI surface. The electro-optical (EO) characteristics using the advanced VA- $\pi$ cell using the homeotropic blended PI surface than that of conventional VA cell can be improved. We suggest that the developed advanced VA-$\pi$ cell on a homeotropic blended PI surface is a promising technique for the achievement of a fast response time, and a high contrast ratio.

The electro-optical (EO) performance in the vertical-alignment (VA) - 1/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned with polarized UV exposure on a homeotropic photopolymer surfaces was investigated. Excellent voltage-transmittance curve in the VA - 1/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned with polarized UV exposure for 3 min on the photopolymer containing cholesteryl group of 8% can be achieved. The V-T characteristics in the VA-1/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned on the photopolymer surface can be improved by increasing cholesteryl group. For response time measurement, the transmittance characteristics of the VA-1/4$\pi$ cell photopolymer surface was better than that of the VA-1/4$\pi$ cell rubbingaligned on a polyimide(PI) surface.

We studied the electro-optical (EO) performance in the vertical-alignment (VA) - l/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned with polarized UV exposure on a homeotropic photopolymer surfaces. Excellent voltage-transmittance curve in the VA - l/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned with polarized UV exposure for 3 min on the photopolymer containing cholesterol group of 8% can be achieved. The V-T characteristics in the VA-l/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned on the photopolymer surface can be improved by increasing cholesteryl group. For response time measurement, the transmittance characteristics of the VA-l/4$\pi$ cell photoaligned on the photopolymer surface was better than that of the VA-l/4$\pi$ cell rubbingaligned on a polyimide(Pl) surface.

We have developed a novel vertical-alignment(VA) -$\pi$ cell mode that provides a wide viewing angle and fast response times for nematic liquid crystal(NLC) with negative dielectric anisotropy on a homeotropic polymide(PI) surfaces. Good voltage-transmittance curves and low driving voltages were achieved with the new VA-$\pi$ cell mode without a negative compensation film. Iso-viewing angle characteristics using the new VA-$\pi$ cell mode without a negative compensation film was also successfully observed. As well a fast response time of 31.7 ms for a new VA-$\pi$ mode was measured. Consequently the iso-viewing angel fast response time and low driving voltage characteristics using a VA-$\pi$ cell can be achieved.

We have developed a novel vertical-alignment(VA) - 1/6$\pi$ mode that provides a wide viewing angle for nematic liquid crystal (NLC) with negative dielectric anisotropy on a homeotropic polyimide (PI) surfaces. Good voltage-transmittance curves were achieved with the new VA - 1/6$\pi$ cell model without a negative compensation film. The viewing angle of a new VA -1/6$\pi$ cell without a negative compensation film was wider than that of a conventional VA cell. Finally, the wide viewing angle using the new VA-1/6$\pi$ cell mode can be achieved.

We investigated response characteristics of twisted nematic (TN) cell with different nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) and cell gap d on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface. High transmittance and fast response time of the TN cell on the rubbed PI surface were achieved by using high birefringence (${\Delta}n$) and low cell gap d. The response time of TN cell on the rubbed PI surface was measured 5.1 ms. The transmittance and response time of the TN cell on the rubbed PI surface decreased with decreasing ${\Delta}nd$.
