Hi there;

To change the subject from lasers for a moment.

I would like to know if anyone has any general knowlage on liquid
crystals?

Is the technology to a point that I can buy a sheet of the stuff or is
it all custom work for watches, displays, etc...

Can liquid crystals be made to work on a thin film.

Are they binary or can they be make to be opaque?

Thanks

Dave
