Abstract

Several new liquid crystal operation modes for direct-view and projection display are reviewed. Both transmissive and reflective types are considered. In the transmissive mode, we describe chiral-homeotropic cell for high contrast direct-view displays and a polarization recombination method for high brightness projection displays. In the reflective mode, we describe mixed-mode twisted nematic cells for direct-view displays and an improved 45 degree twisted nematic cell for projection displays.
