| Abstract: | Abstract Ferroelectric liquid crystal cells with a stable twisted state were prepared. Dynamic processes of molecular reorientation in a stable twisted state under an applied electric field have been investigated by observing the optical transmittance and polarization switching current with simultaneous observation of the texture change. |
