초록

We have studied electro-optic characteristics as a function of passivation thickness$(t_p)$ in the fringe-field swiching (FFS) mode using the LC with positive dielectric anisotropy. When $t_p$ is increased from $0.29{\mu}m$ to $3.0{\mu}m$, a maximum transmittance is slightly increased to $2{\mu}m$. However, operating voltage is continuously increased up to above 11v. We found that the tilt angle is decreased between the edge of pixel electrode and the center of each pixel electrode. In the FFS mode using the liquid crystal with positive dielectric anisotropy, transmittance is affected by the tilt angle. When tilt angle is increased, transmittance become decrease. Therefore, in the FFS device, a low tilt angle is favored for high transmittance. It is demonstrated that the suitable passivation thickness make a tilt angle decreased.
