We have developed a new vertical alignment mode that uses a valley or hole as a source of moving liquid crystal when the voltage is applied. As the valley or hole can be made by the same process steps as the TN color filter, this new VA mode can be manufactured by the simplest process steps than any other TFT-LCD modes. We also have found that liquid crystal aligns parallel to the surface of the valley or hole when the voltage is applied. Finally, the electro-optic characteristics of this mode are studied with various parameters such as the birefringence and pitch of liquid crystal.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
