Abstract

AbstractCrysoptix developed a novel approach to manufacturing coatable Thin Birefringence Film (TBF™) retarders based on molecular engineering of organic transparent materials. The advanced approach allows adjusting chemical structure of low molecular weight components with printing deposition techniques (including roll‐to‐roll slot die) to produce the coatable sub‐micron Thin Birefringent Films (TBF™) with the required three‐dimensional refractive index and retardation. We designed a variety of TBF™ with negative A‐plate, negative C‐plate, and biaxial retardation functions. We have developed new designs of VA and IPS LCD modes based on experimental value of refractive indices for negative C‐type and biaxial TBF™ retarders. Numerical simulation and device prototype testing have shown that application of the TBF™ retarders provides efficient optical compensation of LCD working in both VA and IPS modes.
