Key factors to boost LCD TV • Green earth: • -60% of CRT TV power consumption • -EU will prohibit CRT TV import from the middle of 2006 • -Montreal • -California state government legislate restrict using CRT • DTV broadcasting • -DTV will be prevailing after 2006
Requirements of LCD TV • Viewing angle • -176/176(170/170) • -no color shift with angle • -technology: IPS, MVA, OCB etc. • Response time • -12ms (GTG) • -technology:OSC, OCB, scanning B/L • Low cost • -large substrate • -market expansion • -technology: production, component
Current High Performance LCD Technology -Wide viewing angle • In-Plane Switching mode: IPS A P LC molecules Rubbing direction Black White Off state On state
Current High Performance LCD Technology -Wide viewing angle • Multi-domain Vertical Alignment Mode: MVA Black White/Gray Protrusion/bump Protrusions produce multi-domain
Performance Comparsion • IPS has better performance in general viewing angle and faster • intergray response time • MVA has better peak (not average) contrast ratio GTG: gray to gray ☉: high ○: average △: low
Characteristic of IPS mode • Inherent wide viewing angle • -small retardation change with viewing direction • -without compensation film • White color • -yellow shift from 45o diagonal • -blue shift from 135o diagonal • Black Luminance • -off angle need improvement
Cont’d • Relatively low aperture ratio • -complex inter-digitized electrodes • -nonlinear behaviour with pixel pitch • Black level • -sensitive to rubbing condition • -Light leakage due to electrode edge taper angle • variation • Imaging sticking • -charge trapped in SiNx layer • -weak alignment anchoring energy
Performance Improvement Technology -IPS mode • Dual Domain: white color at 45o and 135o diagonal angle • Novel Array structure for high transmittance • Rubbing-free alignment technology
Characteristic of MVA mode • Inherent wide viewing angle • -small retardation change with viewing direction • (IPS has better performance on WVA) • White color • -shift from gray to gray • Black Luminance • -off angle need improvement • Rubbing-free • -less mura defects appear
Other Performance Improvement Technologies • Rubbing free alignment technology • Color filter on Array(COA)/ Array on Color Filter • technology(AOC) • Photo spacer technology • Low resistance bus line technology
Performance Improvement Technology -Super-MVA mode • Improvement aperture ratio by slit ITO • Optimal compensated film for off angle performance Slit ITO protrusion Multi-domain are formed by protrusions Multi-domain are formed by slit ITO
Future Requirements Technologies • Innovation New Technology • High performance • Low cost • High yield • High throughput
Potential Technologies for Next Gen. LCD Production • Softlithography • -Microcontacting Printing • -Microreplication • Nanolithography • -Dip-pen lithography • Size reduction • lithography • etc...
