ABSTRACT:
A display device having a memory making it possible to display information supplied by electric signals and to maintain this display when the signals have disappeared. In a smectic liquid crystal display cell the two plates enclosing the liquid crystal layer can be moved apart by a piezoelectric wedge so as to make the crystal diffusive throughout. Parts of this crystal are then made transparent by applying thereto a reorientation electric field by means of a set of electrodes. The device is intended for use more particularly in telephone exchanges having a device for the display of digital data transmitted on a telephone line.
