Founded in 2005 by an experienced business team and world-renowned molecular design leaders, Crysoptix is a leading material technology company developing, manufacturing and marketing products based on a technology platform of Cascade Crystallization. Crysoptix technology is covered by an extensive patent portfolio, which is developed by a team of highly experienced patent professionals. Crysoptix technology is currently being applied to product improvements and cost reduction opportunities in LCD industry.

Crysoptix has initiated development of a Home TV LCD Cost Reduction Program.

Crysoptix Cost Efficient Technology for Printable LCD Retarders is the first step in realization of the Program.

Crysoptix manufactures a set of unique liquid inks, which are used to produce optical films for LCD. The optical films produced from the Crysoptix liquid ink are critical components in any LCD.

  • Retarder – the film which allows viewing an LCD screen from oblique angles.
  • Polarizer – the film which allows creating the image in the first place.
  • Non-Absorbing Polarizer – a multilayer film which increases brightness and energy efficiency of the screen. 

In 2004-2006 Crysoptix researchers developed basics for translucent LCD design which can increase brightness up to 60% due to replacement of absorbing polarizers with multilayer interference reflective polarizers. This approach is presented in a Home TV LCD: Cost Reduction and Light Efficiency Enhancement Program.

Crysoptix leverages its molecular technology platform by collaborating with LCD industry leaders to develop and produce products in each of their target markets. Crysoptix works closely with partners to maximize the combined potential of Crysoptix' specialized expertise in molecular design technology and the core competencies of its partners.

Crysoptix presents at The 16th International Display Workshops (IDW ’09), Miyazaki, Japan

Oral presentation FMC8-4 entitled “Manufacturing of Coatable Guest-Host Retarder for LCD”: Crysoptix developed a guest-host lyotropic liquid crystal material for manufacturing coatable LCD retarders. The biaxial BA-type birefringent films (retarders) contain, as a host component, supramolecules based on Crysoptix sulfonated aromatic compound. We enhanced guest-host system by NZ-factor adjusting agents that allow producing retarders with desired optical and good mechanical properties… (more…)

Poster presentation FMCp-30 entitled “Novel Coatable Negative C-plate Retarder”: We developed a new coatable negative C-plate retarder for efficient optical compensation of VA LCD. The cost effective Thin Birefringent Film (TBF™) technology can be applied to roll-to-roll manufacturing of polarizers by slot-die coating as well as in-cell retarders. The retarder properties and new LCD design are presented… (more…)

Poster presentation FMCp-38L entitled “PVA Polarizers Laminated with PET”: Conventional PET film (+A plate) when coated with Crysoptix Thin Birefringent Film TBFTM retarder can efficiently replace TAC substrate in LCD polarizer. New polarizer design for VA LCD and IPS LCD provides over 3 B USD cost reduction and improves durability… (more…)

May 31 – June 5, 2009

Crysoptix presents at 2009 International Symposium, Seminar, and Exhibition of Society for Information Display (SID 2009), San Antonio, Texas, USA

Poster presentation P-113 entitled “Materials for Light Efficient LCD”: The way to increase efficiency of modern LCD is to remove the absorbing optical components: color filter and dichroic polarizer. Non-absorbing polarizer together with sub-millisecond fast LC mode working in field-sequential RGB mode are the keys to future LCD… (more…)

March 26, 2009, Tokyo, Japan - Press Release

Information Display, New Products

Crysoptix, a designer and manufacturer of image-enhancing optical films for LCDs, has announced a new, low-cost range of coatable Thin Birefringent Film (TBF) retarders (films that allow viewing of an LCD screen from oblique angles). The new retarders are designed to provide efficient optical compensation for various LCD designs, including TN, STN, VA, and IPS modes… (more…)
