Abstract

The steady bistable regime in FLC layers was found using FLC compositions with its own (volume) bistability. The grayscale in such a FLC possessing high spontaneous polarization value is demonstrated and explained. The row addressing time 50 mks and multiplexivity 1200 (at optical contrast more than 20:1) are reached in FLC passive addressed matrix. Monostable FLC with 2.5 mks response time (at optical contrast not less than 50:1) can be used in fast optical light valves and active addressed matrices for SLM- spatial filters.
