Analysis of the Asymmetric Continuous Director Rotation Mode of Ferroelectric Liquid Crystal Displays
نویسندگان
چکیده
A very simple analytical model is given of the asymmetric continuous director rotation mode of ferroelectric liquid crystal displays. This model clearly illustrates the basic principles on which this mode is based, and allows easy parameter estimation. It is applied to transmission-voltage characteristics, switching times, and ion characterization.

Non-uniform Theory Simulations of the Continuous Director Rotation Mode of FLCD’s
We introduce the theoretical model of LC material with the phase sequence I-N-SmC as a material having suitable properties for multimedia applications (fast speed, high contrast and full grey scale capabilities). We present the structure and investigate the switching and the optical response of the device taking into account material and technological parameters. We explain the mechanism of the...
متن کاملCombined X-Ray and fully leaky guided mode studies of the smectic layer and optic tensor configuration in a ferroelectric liquid-crystal cell.
X-ray scattering together with optical characterization using fully leaky guided modes have been used for the first time to study the same ferroelectric liquid-crystal cell. This enables direct calculation of an accurate cone and chevron description of the liquid-crystal director profile since the layer structure and optic tensor configuration are both well known.
متن کاملThe Effect of Surface Alignment on Analog Control of Director Rotation in Polarization Stiffened Smc* Devices
The effect of surface alignment on the achievement of analog (" V "-shaped) electric field control of director rotation in SmC* liquid crystal devices is investigated experimentally and through numerical modeling. Ferroelectric SmC* liquid crystals are intrinsically analog and thresholdless, i.e. the director can be rotated freely around the tilt cone. Whether or not a SmC* liquid crystal cell ...
متن کامل37.3: Optimization of Photo-Aligned Asymmetric Ferroelectric Liquid Crystal Display Performance: Effect of Planar Layer
Photo-aligned ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) display reveals a perfect alignment in case of asymmetric boundary conditions, when the competition in aligning action of two solid surfaces is avoided. In this case a stable uniform photo-alignment on one of the cell substrates spreads out to the other, which is prepared to sustain planar alignment with a degenerate azimuthal direction. In the p...
متن کاملV -shaped switching ferroelectric liquid crystal structure stabilized by dielectric surface layers.
The " V -shaped switching" mode in high polarization ferroelectric liquid crystals was studied with the aim of stabilizing the monostable bookshelf structure with the spontaneous polarization parallel to the glass plates. The director field in such cells was confirmed to be sensitive to both the liquid crystal properties and the cell parameters. In cells with only polyimide alignment layers, hy...
