Abstract

Color switching properties in fluorescent liquid crystal displays (LCDs) are improved by using high dichroic fluorescent dyes of which dichroic ratio is about 9. A fluorescent homogeneous and twisted nematic (TN) LC cells are stacked and the voltage is applied to the TN cell. The TN cell works as a tunable emitter and a shutter of the fluorescence emitted from the homogenous cell, then the fluorescent color can continuously be changed from the color of TN cell to that of homogenous cell with high chroma.
