High-quality LC alignment on organic SCR has been examined and used to manufacture rubbing-free LC devices. Here, the first contact geometry of the LCs in the SCR determines LC orientation. SCR cell performs wider thermal tolerance, better electrical stability, Higher VHR, faster switching time, and lower operating voltage.
