摘要
We report an optimized blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC) mixture JC-BP08 for field-sequential-color (FSC) display applications. JC-BP08 exhibits several attractive features: 1) its fast average gray-to-gray response time enables FSC display, which in turn triples the resolution density and optical efficiency. 2) Its voltage holding ratio is >99.4% at 25 degrees C and >93.2% at 60 degrees C. 3) Its average dielectric constant epsilon'approximate to 87 is still manageable by the bootstrapping driving to enable 240 Hz operation. 4) Using a triangular protrusion electrode structure, the transmittance can reach 74% at 15V, which enables single-TFT driving. 5) With two-domain structure, it offers indistinguishable gamma shift and wide viewing angle. We proposed voltage charging model and found a linear relationship between the required charging time and epsilon', which is validated by our experimental results. (C) 2017 Optical Society of America
