ABSTRACT

Mixing liquid crystal with chiral dopant for increasing the response speed of optical driving liquid crystal display was investigated in this paper. It is demonstrated that by adding chiral dopant, rewriting time could be decreased from 30 s to 20 s with good repeatability. Without adding other steps in the process of making cells, this improvement is due to the stronger elastic energymaking LC molecules twist more easily.
