Thin cell fringe-field-switching liquid crystal display with a chiral dopant

Abstract
A fringe-field-switching (FFS) liquid crystal display (LCD) using a thin cell doped with a reverse-handed chiral compound is proposed. Such a FFS LCD exhibits a fast response time (8ms) , high transmittance (>90%) , low operating voltage (5Vrms) , and intrinsically wide viewing angle. Its application for LCD televisions in order to reduce image blurring is emphasized.
