The liquid crystal (LC) containing photocurable monomers and left handed chiral agent in the TN cell twisted clockwise in 90 degrees formed the Splay Twisted structure twisted counterclockwise in 90 degrees. The Reverse Twisted Nematic (RTN) mode twisted clockwise was formed, when 10 V was applied to the Splay Twisted structure. The obtained RTN structure could be stabilized by UV irradiation. In this study, we tried to stabilize the RTN structure by using thermal energy with low voltage application. By 1.5 V application to Splay Twisted structure at 80℃, and UV stabilization the formation counterclockwise Super Twisted Nematic structure was confirmed.
