Abstract
Expressions for the threshold and saturation voltages are derived for twisted chiral nematic layers with weak boundary coupling and arbitrary elastic constant ratios. A general discussion is given of the stability of the various states which may occur in such layers.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
