We report a scattering‐free polymer network liquid crystal (PNLC) for spatial light modulator (SLM) applications. In reflective mode, the PNLC exhibits V 2π ~23V at λ=514 nm and 250 μs response time at room temperature. This enables PNLC to be integrated in a high resolution liquid‐crystal‐on‐silicon device for next‐generation SLM applications.
