A new reflective display mode using antiferroelectric liquid crystals and thresholdless antiferroelectric liquid crystals

摘要

We propose an optical configuration of transflective AFLCs and TLAFs display modes using a half-wave LC cell in which in-plane tilt angle is 22.5 deg . In case of reflective mode, it provides a high brightness and a high contrast by using a wide-band quarter-wave film, and in case of transmissive mode, it also provides a high contrast ratio.
