Improving image quality is an eternal theme for LCDs due to the high demand from technology and market. Contrast ratio is very essential for image quality when the display is used in ambient light. Therefore, enhancing the contrast ratio especially for IPS/FFS displays is particularly important. In this paper, we will present the evolution of UB-FFS LC mixtures, showcase our latest LC materials that achieve record-high contrast ratios for different applications.
