Plasma-beam Alignment Technique for Ferroelectric Liquid Crystals

Plasma-beam Alignment Technique for Ferroelectric Liquid Crystals

The plasma-beam alignment procedure earlier developed for the alignment of nematic liquid crystals is successfully extended to ferroelectric liquid crystals (FLC). The highly uniform alignment of the “chevron” structure (before electrical treatment of FLC cells) and “quasi bookshelf” structure (afte...
