Abstract

See full text

A new mode of operation is proposed for light control systems consisting of a combination of liquid crystal cells and polarizers. The direct operation of liquid crystal cells with circularly-polarized light is advantageous in many respects. The circularly-polarized light is produced either with conventional circular polarizers or with monomeric or polymeric cholesteric liquid crystals. The new mode of operation is possible under certain conditions for all liquid crystal cells which hitherto had to be operated with linearly-polarized light.
