초록

We demonstrated a fast liquid crystal (LC) display mode based on a nonchiral smectic C LC in a twisted geometry. In this twisted nonchiral smectic C (TNSC) LC mode, the analog gray scales and wide viewing properties are achieved. The continuous gray scales in the TNSC LC mode are obtained in a dielectrically driving scheme as those in the nematic mode.
