A high‐performance liquid crystal (LC) alignment layer of ultrathin single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is developed along with a conjugated block copolymer nanocomposite that is solution‐processible for con‐ventional twisted nematic (TN) LC cells. On page 3843 , Dae‐Shik Seo, Cheolmin Park, and co‐workers show that a LC cell prepared on this extremely trans‐parent nanocomposite gave rise to superfast switching of the TN LC molecules, four times faster than that on a commercial polyimide layer.
