Proximity effect for scrolling spatial light modulator applications of surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid-crystal switching

We demonstrate a ‘‘proximity effect’’ in a linear pixel array of bistable electro-optic surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid-crystal (SSFLC) light valves, in which the switching threshold for a given pixel depends on the states of neighboring pixels. This effect should allow operation of SSFLC sp...

Zusammenfassung:We demonstrate a ‘‘proximity effect’’ in a linear pixel array of bistable electro-optic surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid-crystal (SSFLC) light valves, in which the switching threshold for a given pixel depends on the states of neighboring pixels. This effect should allow operation of SSFLC spatial light modulators as electro-optic shift registers.
