专利汇可以提供Liquid crystal display apparatus专利检索，专利查询，专利分析的服务。并且A system in accordance with the present invention utilizes a thermally addressed liquid crystal display cell as an imaging device in, for example, a schlieren optics projection arrangement. In preferred embodiment, the display cell includes a layer of liquid crystal substance, sandwiched between a first optically transparent heat-producing electrode, a second electrode, and transparent support substrates. The electrodes and the liquid crystal layer are supported by and contained between the support substrates. A controlled laser beam selectively generates hot spots in the heat-producing electrode which, in turn, locally heat the liquid crystal substance above its transition temperature. When the liquid crystal substance is subsequently cooled to its mesophase, long-lasting lightscattering centers remain. These long-lasting light-scattering centers are erased by applying a relatively high-frequency a-c voltage to the electrodes.，下面是Liquid crystal display apparatus专利的具体信息内容。
