— Large‐area (12 × 100 cm) flexible displays were successfully fabricated using ferroelectric liquid‐crystalline polymers (FLCPs). The polymers were comb‐shaped and had side chains which consisted of a flexible spacer unit, a rigid core moiety, and an optically active end‐group. These displays are lightweight and durable against mechanical shock.
