We have developed a new viewing angle control (VAC) technology by using unbalanced domain design. With this approach, a switchable viewing angle control function which provides users the privacy protection mode and the wide viewing mode can be realized with a single‐cell panel. The advantages of light weight and slim characteristics make it appropriate for portable display applications. Besides, high transmittance performance in the wide viewing mode and the ease of integration with the established LCD technology provide another benefits for LCD manufacturers as well.
