Abstract
A method of driving a bi-stable chiral splay nematic mode liquid crystal display device including first and second substrates, a liquid crystal layer between the first and second substrates, first and second reset electrodes on one of inner surfaces of the first and second substrates, a pixel electrode on the inner surface of the first substrate and a common electrode on the inner surface of the second substrate includes: applying a data voltage and a common voltage to the pixel electrode and the common electrode, respectively, such that a vertical electric field is generated and the liquid crystal layer transitions from a splay state to a π-twist state during a writing period; and floating the pixel electrode and the common electrode such that the liquid crystal layer keeps the π-twist state and displays a present image during a memory period.
