摘要:
We have extensively studied the influence of the substrate surface on the V-shaped switching in thin planer cells of a chiral smectic liquid crystal and found that the substrate surface plays a major role in the emergence of V-shaped switching: namely, thick alignment layers and less polar surfaces are ideal for V-shaped switching. It was also found that, instead of using a thick alignment layer, ideal V-shaped switching could be achieved by using a thin alignment layer with a less polar insulating layer.
