This simulation software package performs director calculations to help the user create and optimize new liquid crystal display (LCD) configurations. The detailed technology guide goes far beyond simply showing you how to use the software. It provides a comprehensive understanding of director simulations, helping the user to judge the accuracy of results. From the basic mathematical formulas that describe liquid crystals. to actual source code implementation, the book provides a thorough explanation of the underlying logic behind the software. Moreover, the manual explores the energies involved in liquid crystals, and teaches the user how the formulas used in simulation programs were derived. The software is PC compatible and performs best with Pentium II processor or greater, 128 MB RAM or more.
