Abstract

Most modeling about dynamic behavior of Antiferroelectric Liquid Crystal (AFLC) is limited to the hysteric characteristics of AFLC cells or thresholdless switching of frustrated AFLC cells. In this paper, domain growth of AFLC cells is modeled with extended bilayer model. When driving pulses that consist of a selection voltage, a bias voltage, and a reset voltage are applied to the AFLC cell, its dynamic behavior is simulated.
