Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process of preparing a light modulation element of the PS-ULH (polymer stabilised ULH) type, which allows to reduce the operational voltage and allows to improve the switching time of the light modulation element.

Claim (Index 1):
A process of preparing a light modulation element comprising the steps of\n a) providing a layer of a liquid crystal medium comprising one or more bimesogenic compounds, one or more chiral compounds, and one or more polymerisable compounds between two substrates, wherein at least one substrate is transparent to light and electrodes are provided on both sides of the opposing substrates, b) heating liquid crystal medium to its isotropic phase, c) cooling the liquid crystal medium up to 10\u00b0 or less below the clearing point while applying voltage between the electrodes, which is sufficient to switch the liquid crystal medium between switched states, d) exposing said layer of a liquid crystal medium to photoradiation that induces photopolymerisation of the polymerisable compounds while applying voltage between the electrodes.
