Multidomain TN-LCD fabricated by photoalignment

TN-LCDs having multidomain subpixels have been fabricated using photoalignment. These TN-LCDs exhibit a homogeneous and wide viewing angle. This paper places an emphasis on four domain TN-LCD called super multidomain (SMD). The SMD- TN-LCD exhibits the maximum performance among other multidomain TN-LCDs which is shown in terms of computer simulation and experimental measurements done by the author's group. A non-rubbing technique is required for SMD; we also show that photoalignment is useful for fabricating SMD-TN-LCD. Some performance of an SMD-TN-LCD are demonstrated.
