Abstract
In this paper, we propose a dual-view (DV) liquid
crystal display (LCD) using blue phase (BP) liquid crystal (LC) in
conjunction with the patterned electrode cell. Given the optically
isotropic state of the BP LC material, the DV BP LCD is equipped with
a low dark state and, therefore, a high contrast ratio that exceeds
1000 in the intended viewing direction. The patterned electrode structure
provides inclined electric field parallel to the unintended viewing
direction and creates approximately zero phase retardation, thus suppressing
light leakage in the unintended viewing direction.
