Abstract
By using a ferroelectric substrate, the effective slope of the volt-contras t characteristic of the electrooptic effect in liquid crystals has been inc reased, and bistable switching of the light intensity has been obtained. (C ) 1999 The Optical Society of America. [S1070-9762(99)01806-0].
