Title: Light leakage reduction in vertically-aligned liquid crystal displays using polymeric particles formed on an alignment layer
Inventor: HSU HSU-KUAN
IPC: G02F1/1337
Filed: 2013-11-05
Abstract: A vertically-aligned LCD (100) is disclosed, which has improved contrast and display quality by reducing light leakage in the non-display area. 
     Agglomerate particles (120) in direct contact with the liquid crystal (LC) layer (150) in the LC-cell are formed on an alignment layer (170) by selective irradiation of monomers present either in the alignment layer or in the LC layer. These particles are distributed more densely in the non-display area (B) than in the display area (A). The particles in the display area are formed under application of an electric field which aligns them in preferred directions (forming nano-protrusions), so as to provide ordering of the LC molecules there; however, no field is applied during the formation of the particles in the non-display area: these vary strongly in shape, size and orientation, preventing ordering of the LC layer and greatly reducing light leakage there.

Inventor: WU HAIHUI
IPC: C02F1/44
Filed: 2013-03-26
Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for purifying liquid. The apparatus comprises an air-tight container (301) and a heater (305). The air-tight container is configured to store the liquid, wherein at least a portion of the container consists of a filter membrane (303). The heater is configured to heat the liquid such that the liquid is driven out of the container through the filter membrane. The heater can actively increase the pressure in the container by heating the liquid and/or gas in the container. Sometimes, a portion of the liquid stored in the air-tight container may be vaporized, which increases the pressure in the container as well. Under the increased pressure, the liquid can be easily driven out of the container while being purified via the filter membrane. Since the filtration is actively driven by heating, the filtration efficiency of the apparatus can be controlled and improved according to various applications.
