Abstract
New configurations of nonlinear liquid crystalline cells utilising an intensity-dependent scattering of light at liquid crystal/glass plate interface are presented. This kind of devices, based on a scattering-m ode light modulation, require relatively low light power. Assistance o f an additional electric field results in a more stable and a faster d evice performance.
