Abstract
Effect of photoaligning azo-dye layers thickness on the alignment quality and multiplex operation of passively addressed ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) display cells has been investigated. An optimal (about 3-5 nm) azo-dye layer thickness, that provides both the highest multiplex operation steadiness and the best contrast ratio of FLC display cells was found.
