Multiplexable liquid-crystal display

摘要

In order in the case of a multiplexable liquid-crystal display of the homeotropic nematic type to obtain a steeper characteristic and an improved range of viewing angle in conjunction with a contrast ratio that is at least constant, a chiral additive is admixed to the nematic liquid crystal (9), with the result that the ratio of the layer thickness (d) to the overall twist (P) of the liquid crystal is between 0.1 and 0.5, preferably between 0.20 and 0.35. In this case, the orientation directions of the rubbed backing plates (1, 2) are crossed with respect to one another. <IMAGE>
