Abstract
The temporal transmittance of a liquid crystal (LC) cell shutter was investigated for various incident angles to verify the possibility of a fast switching time. For a mono-domain vertical alignment (VA) cell, the switch OFF time in which the LC restores to its initial alignment state under no driving voltage is found to relate to the angle of the incident light. A decrease of switch OFF time is observed when the azimuth angle of the incident light approaches the azimuth angle of the LC optical axis. For a 4-domain VA cell, switch OFF time is observed not to decrease for any obliquely incident angle.
