Field Sequential Color Ferroelectric Liquid Crystal Display Cell
First Claim
1. A field sequential color (FSC) ferroelectric liquid crystal (FSC) display cell, part of an FSC display, comprising:
- two polarizers;
an FLC layer, positioned between the two polarizers, the FLC layer comprising FLCs with helix pitch less than the thickness of the FLC layer; and
a voltage source, configured to apply an electrical driving voltage to the FLC layer, the electrical driving voltage applied to the FLC layer having an amplitude greater than a threshold voltage for helix unwinding, and wherein the voltage source is further configured to apply electrical driving voltages to light emitting diodes (LEDs) of the FSC display to illuminate pixels of the FSC display, wherein the pixels are illuminated in an FSC manner;
wherein the FLC layer is configured to provide a defect-free layer of FLC under the electrical driving voltage applied to the FLC layer.
