  • Abstract
    Recently, a bistable chiral splay nematic liquid crystal (BCSN LC) device was proposed as a novel bistable device. Bistability of this were elucidated by the bistable curve. In this paper, using the bistable curve, we investigated theoretically the switching behavior of the BCSN LC device by a horizontal electric field.
