Formation of Dual Threshold in a Vertical Alignment Liquid Crystal Device

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

We present a method that enables dual threshold voltages in a vertical alignment liquid crystal device, through which the gamma shift can be reduced with no subsequent decrease in the contrast ratio. By forming polymer layers, the threshold voltage shift is accomplished through the utilization of the voltage drop effect. We expect that the proposed method can be applied to the conventional 4-domain mode in order to achieve an 8-domain mode without the need for complex driving schemes.
