Title

Wall-Shaped Electrodes For Reducing The Operation Voltage Of Polymer-Stabilized Blue Phase Liquid Crystal Displays

Abstract

Polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal displays based on the Kerr effect are emerging due to their submillisecond response time, wide view and simple fabrication process. However, the conventional in-plane switching device exhibits a relatively high operating voltage because the electric fields are restricted in the vicinity of the electrode surface. To overcome this technical barrier, we propose a partitioned wall-shaped electrode configuration so that the induced birefringence is uniform between electrodes throughout the entire cell gap. Consequently, the operating voltage is reduced by ∼ 2.8× with two transistors. The responsible physical mechanisms are explained. © 2009 IOP Publishing Ltd.
