Abstract
A new guest host (GH) LCD featured by high reflectivity, hysteresis free and wide viewing angle is demonstrated by adopting a highly twisted (300 degrees) amorphous TN liquid crystal as a host medium. We studied the effect of twist angle on the EO performance of a-N-GH LCDs by comparing with that of conventional W&T GH-LCDs. The obtained lightness and luminance contrast ratio was 〜60 and 〜5.5,respectivity, which will be improved by selecting proper reflective sheets.
