Abstract

The antiferroelectric liquid crystal display (AFLCD) is unique display that can show the perfect moving image using the passive matrix driving scheme. We optimized the driving waveform and introduced the dual driving method. Also, by improving this driving method and using line inversion method, we realized AFLC display with high image quality, which has 160(RGB)${\times}$240, 32768colors, crosstalk free and flicker free. The contrast ratio is greater than 60:1, and the brightness is above 200cd/$m^2$.
