We have successfully developed and commercialized an OCB‐WV film, which maximizes the viewing angle performance of the OCB mode while maintaining a high on‐axis contrast ratio. The OCB‐WV film consists of a 45degree‐rubbed discotic layer and a high Rth biaxial TAC film, which are suited for a roll‐to‐roll polarizer manufacturing process. This OCB‐WV has brought out the excellent features that OCB intrinsically has, making next‐generation fast‐response LCD‐TVs possible and free from image blurring in conjunction with an impulsive driving scheme.
