<p>Each side of a liquid crystal cell having a neumatic liquid crystal is provided with electrodes which are formed by conductive parallel strips separated by insulating strips. The direction of orientation of the axes of the molecules of the liquid crystal which are in contact with the electrodes are not uniform and differ opposite to the conductive strips or the insulating strips. When an electric field is applied between oppositely located electrodes, all molecules which are in contact with the same electrode flip-over in the same direction, namely that direction which is induced by the oblique position of the axes of the molecules opposite to the insulating strips relative to the axes of the molecules opposite to the conductive strips. This avoids optical discontinuities which occur generally in the absence of the inclination.</p> |
