Omnidirectionally continuous liquid crystal domain structure for high transmittance vertically aligned nematic mode

2012 
A vertically aligned (VA) nematic liquid crystal (LC) mode with field-driven continuous domain is demonstrated using a transparent electrode deposited-microlens structure with a matching planarization layer. Due to curved electrodes, an axially symmetric omnidirectional domain of liquid crystal can easily be obtained on the flat surface of the planarization layer, with a defect-free symmetric domain of LCs. A significant increase in the transmittance can be obtained using this mode, in comparison to conventional VA modes.
