Fast electroclinic switching in a ferroelectric LC-polysiloxane

A ferroelectric liquid‐crystal (LC) polymer with extremely rapid electroclinic switching is reported: The LC‐polysiloxane can optically follow an electric field of more than 100 kHz. This high switching speed should make it possible to transform spoken language into optical signals for transmission...
