A unique way to dramatically enhance the brightness of single layer and stacked reflective cholesteric LCDs is shown. The LC aligning surfaces are treated to provide varying degrees of homogeneity while maintaining the bistability. The result is reflective displays with exceptionally high brightness approaching that of printed paper.
