Abstract

Improvements in an electro-optical device controllable by an electric body, characterized in that: - a liquid crystal is arranged between two plates, - the liquid crystal is essentially made of a material that exhibits a nematic phase and positive dielectric anisotropy and presents a helical structure with respect to the direction perpendicular to the plates, - the plates exhibit a surface structure that exerts an orientation effect on the liquid crystal molecules adjacent to the plates, and at least one of the plates is transparent to light, and - a polarizer is arranged in front of the liquid crystal when viewed in the direction of the incident light.
