We demonstrate an intriguing liquid crystal display (LCD) mode that comprises an optically isotropic LC composite incorporating in-plane electric field geometry. No surface treatment, such as rubbing, is required to fabricate the LCD mode because it is based on an isotropic state. The measured response time is of subm…

During poling and application in actuators, piezoelectric ceramics like lead-zirconate-titanate are exposed to static or cyclically varying electric fields, often leading to pronounced changes in the electromechanical properties. These fatigue phenomena depend on time, peak electric load, and temperature. Although thi…
