摘要
We report a high performance negative dielectric anisotropy (Delta epsilon) liquid crystal for fringing field switching (n-FFS) display. We compare the electro-optic characteristics of FFS cells using positive and negative Delta epsilon LCs. With comparable driving voltage and response time, the n-FFS cell has advantages in higher transmittance, single gamma curve, less cell gap sensitivity and slightly wider viewing angle. LC director deformation distribution is analyzed to explain these performance differences.
