“…In 1984 (Bos and Koehler/Beran, 1984), demonstrated that the pi-cell can be used for fast optical-switching devices in the V-state, also known as optically compensated bend (OCB) mode. Since then, many liquid crystal display devices with fast response time, large viewing angles, and high transmittance have been proposed based on the pi-cell (Yu and Kwok, 2004;Jhun et al, 2006;Wu et al, 2012;Lin et al, 2015;Zhou et al, 2017).…”
