Abstract
The transmittance in fringe-field switching liquid crystal (LC) displays, which show a wide viewing angle, is dependent on the position along the electrode position. The reason for this is that the dielectric torque (and hence the twist angle) varies with position. This effect depends on the type of LC: a display using an LC with positive dielectric anisotropy has less transmittance than one with negative dielectric anisotropy. Furthermore, the transmittance decreases with decreasing cell gap. The difference between the LC types can be reduced and the transmittance can be improved greatly even for a low cell gap by optimizing the electrode structure to enhance the region of in-plane twist.
