Abstract

A viewing angle controllable fringe and in-plane switching vertical alignment liquid crystal display (LCD) structure has been proposed. To realise the change from wide viewing angle (WVA) to narrow viewing angle (NVA) in a single LCD panel, the bias voltage is applied on the common electrode, and NVA can decreases with the increasing bias voltage. In WVA mode, the viewing angle cone (contrast ratio larger than 1000:1) is almost 70° and the contrast ratio is larger than 100:1 in arbitrary azimuthal directions. In NVA mode, the viewing angle cone (10:1) can continuously and uniformly change from 40° to 20°.
