Animated Display. To demonstrate their compound's wide capability, RCA researchers sandwiched a thin film of the liquid crystals between two sheets of glass. The inner surface of each sheet was coated with a transparent electrical conducting material. When a small negative charge was applied to one sheet and a positive charge to the other, so much turbulence was caused inside the liquid crystals' molecular structure that the film turned instantly opaque. Next, in a more complicated display, the conducting surfaces were divided into a mosaic of squares, each separately linked to the external power source; this enabled...
