Abstract

A 3-terminal bistable twisted nematic liquid crystal display has been demonstrated. This display makes use of a combination of strong in-plane electric fields and vertical electric field for switching between the (phi) and the (phi) +(pi) twist states. The lifetimes of the two bistable twist states are infinite, which is a significant improvement over conventional bistable twisted nematic displays.
