Abstract: | Abstract— A fringe‐field‐switching (FFS) mode cell having LC alignment has been developed by using a non‐rubbing method, a ion‐beam‐alignment method on a‐C:H thin film, to analyze the electro‐optical characteristics of this cell. The suitable inorganic thin film for FFS‐LCDs and the alignment capabilities of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) have been studied. An excellent voltage‐transmittance (V‐T) and response‐time curve for the ion‐beam‐aligned FFS‐LCDs were observed using oblique ion‐beam exposure on DLC thin films. |
