Gray Scale of Bistable Chiral Splay Nematic Liquid Crystal Device by Interdigital Electrodes of the Inequality Gap

In the bistable chiral splay nematic (BCSN) mode, the splay and ${\pi}$ twist states are used for the two stable states. The switching property is strongly dependent on the amplitude of the electric field. In this paper, we investigated the gray scale capability of BCSN liquid crystal display (LCD) by the gradual horizontal electric field caused the interdigital electrode of by the inequality gap. We demonstrate the gray scale of the BCSN LCD during transition process under the horizontal electric field.
