Abstract
In Deformed Helix Ferro-electric liquid crystal display devices (DHFLCDs) the memory effect in video applications is interrupted by adapting the data voltages of matrix displays based on MIMs or TFTs, dependent on the data in a previous frame, so that the polarization within a cell always switches to a fixed value (zero). In other types of displays (based on diodes) or for less rapid applications, the polarization can also be readily set at this value.
