Viewing angle controllable displays with a blue-phase liquid crystal cell.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We demonstrate a controllable viewing angle liquid crystal display (LCD) using an inserted blue-phase liquid crystal (BPLC) cell. The BPLC layer functions as a tunable positive C-film or a negative C-film, depending on whether the employed LC has a positive or negative dielectric anisotropy. Therefore, the viewing angle of the LCD panel can be controlled continuously by the applied voltage of the BPLC cell.

Transflective display using a polymer-stabilized blue-phase liquid crystal.
A wide view, submillisecond response, and single-cell-gap transflective display using a blue-phase liquid crystal (BPLC) is proposed. To balance the optical phase retardation between transmissive (T) and reflective (R) regions, in-plane protrusion electrodes are formed with different gaps in the two regions. This display exhibits reasonably high optical efficiency and well matched voltage depen...
متن کاملReview on polymer-stabilized short-pitch cholesteric liquid crystal displays
Submillisecond response times and low operation voltage are critical to next generation liquid crystal display and photonic devices. In this paper, we review the recent progress of three fastresponse short-pitch cholesteric liquid crystal modes: blue phase (BP), uniform standing helix (USH), and uniform lying helix (ULH). This review starts with a brief introduction of device structures and wor...
متن کاملTurning film for widening the viewing angle of a blue phase liquid crystal display.
We report a new turning film structure for widening the viewing angle of a vertical-field-switching blue-phase liquid crystal display, which employs a directional backlight. The turning film consists of periodic prismatic structures: each period has three prisms with different base angles so that the output light can be spread to a larger angle. Simulation results show that a full width at half...

We demonstrated a continuous viewing angle controllable liquid crystal display (LCD) adopting a thermally variable retardation layer (TVRL) using nematic liquid crystal with transparent electric-heating lines to control temperature. The simulated and experimental results of the proposed LCD show continuous and symmetric viewing angle characteristics by tuning the retardation of TVRL using Joule...
