A submillisecond-response liquid crystal for color sequential projection displays

چکیده
Fenglin Peng Abstract — We report Fangwang Gou Haiwei Chen Yuge Huang Shin-Tson Wu a new LC with low viscosity and high clearing point (Tc ~102 °C) for colorsequential projection displays. Using a 1.95-μm mixed-mode twisted nematic cell, the averaged grayto-gray response time is less than 1ms, which is ~3.6× faster than the current state of the art. Such a mixed-mode twisted nematic liquid-crystal-on-silicon can be used for near-to-eye wearable projection displays and head-up displays in vehicles.

Submillisecond-response nematic liquid crystals for augmented reality displays
We report a new nematic liquid crystal (LC) mixture with an ultra-low rotational viscosity (γ1 = 53.4 mPas @ 35°C), relatively high birefringence (Δn ≈0.15), and moderate dielectric anisotropy (Δε = −2.80 @ 35°C). When employed in a liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCoS) projector with RGB light-emitting diodes (LEDs), a sub-millisecond response time is obtained without the need for complicated overd...
متن کاملHigh Performance Negative Dielectric Anisotropy Liquid Crystals for Display Applications
We review recent progress in the development of high birefringence (Δn ≥ 0.12) negative dielectric anisotropy (Δε < 0) liquid crystals (LCs) for direct-view and projection displays. For mobile displays, our UCF-N2 (low viscosity, negative Δε, high Δn) based homogeneous alignment fringe-field switching (called n-FFS) mode exhibits superior performance to p-FFS in transmittance, single gamma curv...

We demonstrate two ultra-low viscosity liquid crystal mixtures to enable field-sequential-color wearable displays for low temperature operation, while keeping a wide color gamut. Our mixtures offer ~4X faster response time than a commercial material at 20°C and ~8X faster at −20°C. Other major attractive features include: (1) submillisecond response time at room temperature and vivid color even...

A projection display using blue-phase liquid crystal (BPLC) is proposed. The fast-response BPLC enables field sequential projection display with suppressed color breakup. Methods for reducing the operating voltage are also discussed. Author
متن کاملFast-response liquid crystal phase modulators for augmented reality displays
We report three new liquid crystal mixtures optimized for the phase modulator of an augmented reality display. The mixtures exhibit a relatively high birefringence (Δn) yet low viscosity, modest dielectric anisotropy (Δε), and acceptable resistivity and UV stability. High Δn enables a thin cell gap (d≈1.7 μm) for achieving 2π phase change with a reflective Liquid-Crystal-on-Silicon (LCoS) devic...
