Abstract: In a normally black double cell, grey scale enhancement is obtained by dividing pixels in the driving cell into sub-pixels which are rotated preferably through 180null with respect to each other.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a patterned layer of a polymer material having a cholesteric order, in which the material is oriented in such a way that the axis of the molecular helix of the cholesterically ordered material extends transversely to the layer, and in which the layer is patterned in that it comprises at least one region in which the pitch of the molecular helix differs from that of another region. This inventive method comprises the following steps: a. providing a layer of a cholesterically ordered material comprising a quantity of a convertible compound which in its non-converted and in its converted state determines the pitch of the cholesterically ordered material to a different extent, in which the conversion of said compound may be induced by radiation, b. irradiating the layer in accordance with a desired pattern so that at least a part of the convertible compound in the irradiated parts of the layer is converted, c. polymerizing and/or crosslinking the cholesterically ordered material to form a three-dimensional polymer. The convertible compound preferably comprises an isomerizable, chiral compound. Polymerization and/or crosslinking are preferably induced by irradiation using electron-beam radiation or actinic radiation.

Abstract: In a method of manufacturing a liquid crystal device including a layer having a fixed cholesteric order, the patterned layer is manufactured by providing a layer comprising polymerizable cholesterically ordered material and a compound convertible by means of radiation from a non-converted to converted state. The pitch of the cholesterically ordered material is influenced by the compound in its converted state to a different extent than in its converted state. The polymerizable layer is then irradiated pattern-wise thus creating regions of different pitch. The irradiated layer is then polymerized and/or cross-linked to fix the cholesteric order thus obtained.
