A method of driving a dual mode liquid crystal display device includes: applying a first horizontal electric field to the liquid crystal layer for a first duration time during a reset period of a memory mode, the first duration time longer than a frame; eliminating the first horizontal electric field and keeping the liquid crystal layer without the first horizontal electric field for a second duration time during the reset period of the memory mode; applying a first vertical electric field corresponding to a static image for a third duration time during a writing period of the memory mode, the third duration time longer than the frame; and eliminating the first vertical electric field and keeping the liquid crystal layer without the first vertical electric field for a fourth duration time during the writing period of the memory mode.

Method of driving dual mode liquid crystal display device

A dual mode LCD device includes first and second substrates facing each other; a first electrode on an inner surface of the first substrate and having a plate shape; a first insulating layer on the first electrode; a second electrode and a third electrode on the first insulating layer, being spaced apart from each other and extending along a first direction; a fourth electrode on an inner surface of the second substrate; and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first and second substrates and including chiral dopants, wherein liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer are stably arranged in a first twist state and a second twist state, wherein the first and second twist states are used for a memory mode and the second twist state and a vertical alignment state are used for a dynamic mode.
