Abstract

This review summarizes the diverse material requirements of the main Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) technologies used for televisions (TVs). We discuss recent advances in liquid crystal materials for this application. We highlight key materials and discuss synthesis, structure–property relations and LC mixture properties. For all technologies we have achieved fast switching LC mixtures (16 ms) and are en route to 8 ms thus improving the switching times for the next generation of superior performance LCD TVs.
