Abstract

A novel model of ELectrically Controlled Birefringence (ECB) liquid crystal display was studied by detailed numerical simulation. The toothed surfaces were formed on the two substrates and the two substrates were interlaced with each other. The optimized mode with cell gap 3.4μm was determined by theoretical analysis. By using extend Jones matrix method, we have shown that the narrow viewing angle in horizontal direction, less than ±10°. The viewing angle characteristics of the novel model are compaed wiht those of usual ECB.
