摘要
We studied the optimal cell retardation value that shows the maximal transmittance in a fringe-field-driven homogeneously aligned (HA) nematic liquid crystal (LC) cell. When the LC with positive dielectric anisotropy is used, the transmittance is much higher than that of an in-plane-field-driven HA cell. The unexpected electrooptic behaviors are caused because the transmittance of light from a deformed LC in a white state cannot be explained using only the uniaxial medium model that describes an in-plane-field-driven HA cell.
