Summary:A novel transflective display with wide viewing angle and fast response has been designed by association with an optically compensated bend (OCB) liquid crystal mode. By optimizing the parameters of the compensation films and liquid crystal (LC) cell, the normalized voltage dependences of transmittance and reflectance curves coincide, which means that the single driving method can be applied. Moreover, the display shows wide viewing angle characteristics in both transmissive and reflective areas, and these results are verified by Poincaré sphere analysis.
