23 Chapter 24Figure 24.1 Comparison of schematic electrode structure and on-state molecular orientation showing differences between IPS and FFS devices. LC orientations at electrode positions a, b, c are quite different each other such that it has an optic axis at a but no optic axis at cFigure 24.2 Time-dependent transmittance curves in the FFS device when an operating voltage is applied for a LC with positive dielectric anisotropy. The LC switches at first at electrode position c by dielectric torque, giving rise to transmittance around region c only after relaxation of 5 ms and then switches at a (a′) by elastic torque sequentially, giving rise to transmittance even above region a after relaxation of 35 msFigure 24.3 Comparisons of calculated voltage-dependent transmittance curves (a) and electrodeposition dependent transmittance (b) between +LC and –LC in the FFS devices. Here the following cell and LC parameters are used for calculation: w = 3 μm, l = 4.5 μm, d = 3.5 μm, K11 = 9.6 pN, K22 = 5.3 pN, K33 = 11.6 pN, = 84 m Pa s, Δε = 4 (–4) for +LC (–LC), Δn = 0.1028 at 550 nm, angle of initial LC director with respect to Ey= 80° (10°) for +LC (–LC). The transmittance of two parallel polarizers is 36.5 percentFigure 24.4 Structure of 5CB (4-cyano-40-pentylbiphenyl), which shows typical nematic phase at room temperature. With random orientation of head to tail of LCs, there is no induced polarity in the liquid crystal director field. In a splay orientation with collective arrangement of head to tail of LCs, the polarization P is induced, which can couple with an applied electric fieldFigure 24.5 LC molecular orientation in a white state and its corresponding transmittance without (normal mode) and with (flexoelectric mode) Pf in IPS cell. In the normal mode, the transmittance does not occur above the centre of the electrodes. In the flexoelectric mode, Pf1 and Pf2 with mirror symmetry are formed along the field direction near the edges of electrodes. During the +frame, the coupling between E and Pf1 occurs in a constructive way while the coupling between E and Pf2 occurs in a destructive way so that transmittance above the signal electrode remains low but that above the common electrode becomes very high. During the –frame, the coupling is reversed and so is the transmittance behaviour. Here w = 5 μm, l = 5 μm, d = 4 μm, Δε = 6, an initial angle between LC director and Ey= 80°Figure 24.6 Experimental observation of flexoelectric effect in the IPS cell.

(c) Local time-dependent transmittance on the indicated location by black arrows under the application of ~3.7 V (50 percent of the maximum transmittance).

(d) Local time-averaged transmittance after the curves saturated and its standard deviation with respect to the driving frequency f. Here, w = 5 μm, l = 5 μm, d = 5 μm, Δε = 4, an initial angle between LC director and Ey= 80°. This figure was reproduced from Kim et al. (2016), Sci. Rep., 6, pp. 35254, fig. 1 with permission by Springer NatureFigure 24.7 Simulation and experimental results showing typical spatial brightness appearance in the FFS mode without and with flexoelectric coefficients. Along fringe electric field lines, a splay deformation occurs, generating Pf1 and Pf2 each at both regions of pixel electrode edge (b and b′ in Figure 24.2). The simulation without eb and es (normal mode) shows relatively low transmittance above the centre of electrodes (a and a′) compared with that at the edge of the electrode (c), which exactly matches transmittance oscillation in experiments along the y-direction. The simulation with eb and es (flexoelectric mode) shows large transmittance change above the centre of the electrodes (A and B) such that during +frame, the transmittance at A (B) decreases (increases) compared with in the normal mode. During the –frame, the transmittance change is reversed, resulting in increased (decreased) transmittance at A (B). Experimental results of 1 Hz driving exhibit exactly the same behaviour with the simulation results. Here wp = 3 μm, l′ = 5 μm, d = 4 μm, thickness of insulator (h) = 0.4 μm, Δε = 3.8, an initial angle between LC director and Ey= 80°Figure 24.8 Microphotographs of pixels showing large flexoelectric effect with +LC (a, b) and minimized flexoelectric effect with –LC (c, d) in FFS TFT-LCDs with IGZO TFTs and (e) time-dependent luminance during frame change, showing larger fluctuation in +LC than in –LC.
