An LCD panel including a first substrate, a second substrate and a smectic liquid crystal layer is disclosed. The first substrate includes a first electrode, a second electrode and a first horizontal alignment film. The first electrode has plural first portions. The second electrode has plural second portions. The first portions are spaced by the second portions. The electrical field directions formed between the first portions and the second portions are perpendicular to the surface of the first substrate. The electrical field direction on each first portion is opposite to that on each second portion. The first horizontal alignment film covers the first and the second electrodes. The second substrate includes a second horizontal alignment film. The horizontal rubbing direction of the first horizontal alignment film is parallel to that of the second horizontal alignment film. The smectic liquid crystal layer is sealed between the first and the second substrates.

Fringe field switching LCD having smectic liquid crystal and utilizing alternate current squared wave driving voltage

A transflective liquid crystal panel includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a first polarizer disposed on the first substrate, a second polarizer disposed on the second substrate having a transmission axis perpendicular to that of the first polarizer and a polymer dispersed liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the substrates. The polymer dispersed liquid crystal layer includes a plurality of liquid crystal molecules and at least one polymer network. When a voltage difference between the substrates is equal to 0V, the liquid crystal molecules do not reflect incident light beams and are not pervious to incident light beams. When the voltage difference between the substrates is not equal to 0V, the crystal molecules reflect incident light beams and are pervious to incident light beams.
