1Speed
If liquid crystal materials are optimized for faster response speed, then response time is improved, but low-temperature stability and reliability deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs a composite liquid crystal composition containing five different liquid crystal compounds (compounds 1-5) in specific weight ratios.
