Abstract
A ferro-electric crystal electro-optical device which uses switching between bi-stable states of ferro-electric liquid crystal molecules. A change from one of the stable states to the other is effected by applying a selected voltage having a combination of chopping pulse to which the liquid crystal molecules are not responsive and DC pulse to which the liquid crystal molecules are responsive.
