Abstract

A normally-white twisted-nematic-mode LCD device has first and second optical compensation films for compensating the retardation of an LC layer sandwiched between a pair of substrates. The LC layer is applied with an applied voltage Vw having a relation with respect to the threshold voltage Vth of the LC and a pre-tilt angle theta of the LC layer as follow: Vw<=Vth*exp(-0.235*theta+7.36*10-3). Then visual angle with ideal contrast is increased by using the applied voltage Vw according to the pre-tilt angle theta.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display (LCD) device, and more particularly to a normally white twisted nematic mode (TN mode) LCD device including liquid crystal (LC) molecules having a twist angle of about 90 degrees. Background technique [0002] Generally, a TN mode LC device sequentially includes a first polarizing film, a first glass substrate, an LC layer, a second glass substrate, and a second polarizing film arranged in the following order when viewed from the light incident side. The LC layer includes LC molecules having long axes oriented parallel to the substrate surface when no electric field is applied. From the first substrate to the second substrate, the LC molecules are twisted 90 degrees on their long axis. In a normally white TN mode LCD device, the first and second polarizing films are arranged such that their polarization axes are arranged perpendicular to each other, and thus the LCD device appears white when no...
