    Abstract: The use of polyaryl ether ketones of the structural unit -O-A-O-B- gives alignment layers for liquid-crystal displays and switching elements which have high transparency, low water-absorption capacity and a particularly uniform alignment, both of smectic and nematic liquid crystals, and thus enable high contrast to be obtained.

    Abstract: Switching and display elements based on ferroelectric liquid-crystals often exhibit a pronounced optical hysteresis which results in the appearance of so-called ghost images. This phenomenon can be markedly reduced or even suppressed if at least one of the two orienting layers are in direct contact with the electrodes and is composed of an electrically conductive polymer of the formula (I): (I) in which R1, R2=independently of each other, H, or straight-chain or branched alkyl or alkoxy containing 1-16 carbon atoms, or halogen, X=S, NH, Y-=BF4-, PF6-, PO43-, AsF6-, SbCl6-, SO42-, HSO4-, alkyl-SO3-, perfluoroalkyl-SO3-, aryl-SO3, F- or Cl-, and n is an integer from 4 to 100 and m is an integer from 1 to 30.

    Abstract: Liquid-crystalline materials are becoming increasingly important in electrooptical switching and display devices. Recently, ferroelectric liquid-crystalline mixtures have also been investigated widely and employed in displays. A particularly important physical parameter for describing FLC mixtures is the spontaneous polarisation (Ps). On the one hand, a high spontaneous polarisation results in short response times, but on the other hand, high Ps values result in optical hysteresis, which causes, inter alia, so-called "ghost images". The use of FLC mixtures of high spontaneous polarisation (Ps 20 nC/cm ) and a natural helical pitch of less than half the layer thickness in an SSFLC display having a layer thickness of from 1 to 10 mu m allows the problem of optical hysteresis to be circumvented, in spite of the high spontaneous polarisation. FLC mixtures in which Ps is > 40 nC/cm can also be switched under these conditions.

    Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP91/01339 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 12, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 12, 1993 PCT Filed Jul. 17, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/01728 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 6, 1992.A liquid-crystal display device having a liquid-crystal layer held between a pair of substrates each having a transparent electrode and an alignment film formed successively on the inner surface, characterized in that the material of the alignment film on at least one of the opposing faces between the substrates is a polymer having recurring units (I, II and III), the recurring unit (I) being represented by formula (A), (A) recurring unit II being a dioxyaryl portion represented by the formula -O-Ar-O- (where Ar is a divalent group having at least one aromatic ring which may contain at least one substituent selected from a C1-4 alkyl group, a C1-4 alkoxy group, a halogen, a phenyl and a substituted phenyl), and recurring unit (III) being a dicarboxyaryl portion represented by formula (B) (B) (where Ar' may be the same as or different from Ar and has the same meaning as Ar).
