Abstract

1286828 Modulating light RCA CORPORATION 7 Oct 1969 [10 July 1969] 49178/69 Heading H4F The dynamic scattering state produced in a liquid crystal solely of the nematic type by the application of an electric field may be erased rapidly compared to the natural relaxation of the crystal following cessation of the electric field by applying an alternating voltage in the range 2-20 kHz, and preferably 7-8 kHz, to the crystal. It is believed that in this frequency range, the dipoles in the crystal are still able to align themselves with the electric field, whereas the mechanisms producing turbulence, i.e. injection of ions into the crystal have time constants which are too large. Fig. 1 (not shown) illustrates the effect of a 40 v, 10 millisecond, 7 kHz pulse immediately following a 50 v., 10 millisecond D.C. «turn-on» pulse, the turn-off time being reduced from 60 to 5 milliseconds. The alternating voltage may be left on at all times except when it is desired to produc the scattering state, and the contrast ratio may be improved by up to a factor of 2. Fig. 3 shows a suitable circuit for one cell of an array of liquid crystal cells using transistors which are «on» only when the gate voltage is one or more volts positive relative to the source voltage, and which are all «off» in the state shown. On switching row line R bn to +42 v., T1 is turned on but T3 remains off. If column lead Cn is simultaneously raised to + 41 v., T3 is turned on and a low frequency source 22 applies a field to the crystal 20 to produce the scattering effect. If row line R bn is now returned to – 40 v. and subsequently column Cn is also returned to – 40 v., the charge stored in the capacitance of the gate electrode of transistor T3 keeps that transistor «on». To turn the crystal off, the voltage on row lead R an is switched from – 40 v. to + 42 v. for about 10 milliseconds, thus turning transistors T2 and T4 on, consequently discharging the gate of T3 and removing the low frequency source 22 while admitting high frequency excitation from a source 22 to the crystal. A matrix of such elements is illustrated in Fig. 4 (not shown), wherein a row lead and a column lead must be simultaneously energized to switch a particular crystal on and the erase operation occurs a row at a time. Instead of an array of cells, a single crystal may be used with a matrix of individual electrodes.
