Abstract
A novel liquid crystal display: a Randomly-Oriented Nematic Liquid Cry stal Display (RON-LCD) is demonstrated and the electro-optical propert ies are discussed compared with those of a Polymer Network Liquid Crys tal Display (PN-LCD). The Homeotropic-RON-LCD with an 8 mum network la yer and a 2 mum no-network layer has sufficient opaqueness at off-stat e and can be driven by lower voltage than the d = 10 mum PN-LCD. The r esistivity of RON-LCD is improved by using a liquid crystal PN-011.
