In this second edition of Liquid Crystal Displays, Ernst Lueder provides a timely update to his successful text. His unique combination of theory and practice presents all the information required for the development and manufacture of modern high performance and energy saving LCDs. The author also strives for an easy to understand description of complex facts. The second edition focuses on a variety of liquid crystal cells and their electronic addressing, and outlines new developments including:High performance VA cells, especially for TV, due to two subpixels with excellent ?-correction also at oblique viewingShort optical response times in the range of 1 ms also for inter-gray transitions due to novel addressing waveformsFringe field switching for acceleration of rise and decay of luminance eliminating frame memoriesReduction of motion blur by scanning backlights, high frequency frames,  edge enhancement and motion blur modelingVery thin LCDs with power saving LED backlights exhibiting unmatched color purity and larger than NTSC color gamutPrinted layers on hydrophobic and hydrophilic areas replacing photolithography Practicing electrical engineers, physicists, chemists and display specialists will find this a valuable resource. Researchers will appreciate the practical guidance given for the design of improved LCDs, whilst students are provided with a useful overview of the field.The Society for Information Display (SID) is an international society, which has the aim of encouraging the development of all aspects of the field of information display. Complementary to the aims of the society, the Wiley-SID series is intended to explain the latest developments in information display technology at a professional level. The broad scope of the series addresses all facets of information displays from technical aspects through systems and prototypes to standards and ergonomicsContent: Chapter 1 Introduction (pages 1–2): Chapter 2 Liquid Crystal Materials and Liquid Crystal Cells (pages 3–20): Chapter 3 Electro?Optic Effects in Untwisted Nematic Liquid Crystals (pages 21–56): Chapter 4 Electro?Optic Effects in Twisted Nematic Liquid Crystals (pages 57–82): Chapter 5 Descriptions of Polarization (pages 83–98): Chapter 6 Propagation of Light with an Arbitrary Incident Angle through Anisotropic Media (pages 99–143): Chapter 7 Modified Nematic Liquid Crystal Displays (pages 145–158): Chapter 8 Bistable Liquid Crystal Displays (pages 159–177): Chapter 9 Continuously Light Modulating Ferroelectric Displays (pages 179–183): Chapter 10 Addressing Schemes for Liquid Crystal Displays (pages 185–187): Chapter 11 Direct Addressing (pages 189–190): Chapter 12 Passive Matrix Addressing of TN Displays (pages 191–221): Chapter 13 Passive Matrix Addressing of Bistable Displays (pages 223–237): Chapter 14 Addressing of Liquid Crystal Displays with a?Si Thin Film Transistors (a?Si?TFTs) (pages 239–338): Chapter 15 Addressing of LCDs with Poly?Si TFTs (pages 339–351): Chapter 16 Liquid Crystal on Silicon Displays (pages 353–361): Chapter 17 Addressing of Liquid Crystal Displays with Metal?Insulator?Metal Pixel Switches (pages 363–371): Chapter 18 Addressing of LCDs with Two?Terminal Devices and Optical, Plasma, Laser and e?beam Techniques (pages 373–379): Chapter 19 Components of LCD Cells (pages 381–413): Chapter 20 Projectors with Liquid Crystal Light Valves (pages 415–425): Chapter 21 Liquid Crystal Displays with Plastic Substrates (pages 427–441): Chapter 22 Printing of Layers for LC Cells (pages 443–461):
