Abstract

A single-gap transflective liquid-crystal (LC) display associated with in-plane rotation of the LC director was designed. In the device, a fringe electric field drives to rotate a homogeneously aligned LC in plane to optimize polarization efficiency. Rotating degrees of the LC director, 22.5° and 45° were required in both reflective and transmissive regions, respectively. In the device, the cell gap was the same for both regions, and a dark state was irrespective of the cell retardation value at normal direction, which was highly important in massive fabrications. The switching principle and electro-optic characteristics of the device are reported herein.
