Electro-Optics of a Transflective Liquid Crystal Display with Hybrid-Aligned Liquid Crystal Texture
The electrooptics of a newly proposed transflective liquid crystal display (LCD) with hybrid-aligned liquid crystal texture is optimized by simulation. The transflective LCD possesses an ultralow threshold voltage of 0 V and an operating voltage of 3 V. By using the dual cell-gap technology and a symmetric optical structure, the normalized voltage dependences of transmission and reflection overlap completely, and the isocontrast contour shows wide viewing angle and symmetry.
Abstract Aseptic loosening of implant is one of the main causes of Ti-based implant failure. In our previous work, a novel stable collagen/hyaluronic acid (Col/HA) multilayer modified titanium coatings (TCs) was developed by layer-by-layer (LBL) covalent immobilization technique, which showed enhanced biological properties compared with TCs that were physically absorbed with Col/HA multilayer in vitro. In this study, a rabbit model with femur condyle defect was employed to compare the osteointegration performance of them. Results indicated that Col/HA multilayer with favourable stability could better facilitate osteogenesis around implants and bone-implant contact. The Col/HA multilayer covalent-immobilized TC may reduce aseptic loosening of implant.
