  • Publication number: 20150085224
    Abstract: A display comprises a first substrate, a second substrate opposite to the first substrate, an electrode structure, and a light-emitting combination (LEC) layer positioned between the first and second substrates, wherein the LEC layer comprises a light emitting material and a LC material, and a horizontal or vertical electric field is generated when a voltage is applied to that electrode structure. One of exemplified displays has an electrode structure comprising a first electrode and a second electrode oppositely disposed, and the LEC layer is positioned between the first and second electrodes, wherein a vertical electric field is generated when a voltage is applied. The device can further comprise an electron injection layer and a hole transport layer. Another exemplified display has an electrode structure arranged on one side of the first substrate, and a horizontal electric field is generated when a voltage is applied.

  • Publication number: 20150062526
    Abstract: A manufacturing method of blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC), comprising steps of: a temperature control step which controls a temperature of a liquid crystal (LC) mixture within a range of a coexistence temperature of the blue phase and the isotropic phase; a temperature descending step which descends the temperature of the LC mixture to an operation temperature of the blue phase, wherein the operation temperature of the blue phase is higher than the phase transition temperature of the blue phase and the lower temperature phase; and a repeating step which repeats the temperature control step and the temperature descending step.

  • Publication number: 20130044145
    Abstract: A driving method is cooperated with a blue phase liquid crystal display (LCD) apparatus having a first substrate and a second substrate opposite to the first substrate. The first substrate has a first electrode layer, and the second substrate has a pixel electrode and a second electrode layer. The driving method includes the steps of: transmitting a first gray level voltage to the pixel electrode; transmitting a first black frame insertion voltage to the pixel electrode; and transmitting a first voltage to the first electrode layer, thereby providing a voltage gap between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer. Accordingly, the dark-state light-leakage of the blue phase LCD apparatus can be improved.

  • Patent number: 8377331
    Abstract: A blue phase liquid crystal composition and a LC display using the composition. The liquid crystal composition includes a first class including a highly polar compound and a second class including a highly conjugated liquid crystal compound. The blue phase liquid crystal display device includes first and second substrates each with polarizer on the exterior surface and the blue phase liquid crystal composition sandwiched therebetween with and patterned electrodes on one of the substrates or both substrates. The patterned electrodes can be T-shaped, chevron or v-shaped, thin comb like shape and can also be flat or trapezoidal. The device outputs different light transmissions from the electrically controllable induced birefringence of the blue phase LC material for a low driving voltage, high transmittance blue phase liquid crystal display device.

  • Patent number: 8357022
    Abstract: A manufacturing apparatus for liquid crystal (LC) panels, including a temperature control device, an LC status monitor, a backlight source and an ultraviolet set. The temperature control device, on which an LC panel is placed, provides temperature control and is perforated to pass light therethrough. The LC status monitor is operative to observe the LC panel while the light is emitted from the backlight source and transmitted through the LC panel and the temperature control device as back-lights of the LC panel. The ultraviolet set is operative to expose the LC panel to ultraviolet light. The relative position between the temperature control device and the backlight source is adjustable, to switch the operating state of the apparatus. In the first operating state, the LC panel can be observed by the LC status monitor. In the second operating state, the LC panel can be exposed to ultraviolet light.
