Electro Optical Properties of Novel In-Plane Switching Driving Mode

Abstract

We proposed a novel driving mode of nematic LCD, named 'It mode.' The main characteristics of the IT mode are of its wide viewing angle and its wide cell gap margin. We experimentally investigated the electro-optical properties of IT mode LCD, especially the viewing angle characteristics. In our presentation, we will report the influence of the electro-optic effect on the alignment film.
