Abstract

A compensation method that uses uniaxial films is developed for widening the viewing angle of the high-transmittance multidomain vertical-alignment liquid crystal display (MVA-LCD). Based on this design, the high-transmittance MVA-LCD is predicted to have a complete 80° viewing cone for contrast ratio (CR)>100:1. Experimental results indicate that the real high-transmittance MVA-LCD panel has a viewing angle more than the entire 80° viewing cone for CR>30:1. Potential application as a mobile display is emphasized.
