摘要：
We have studied the rearrangement of a smectic layer induced by asymmetric voltage pulses in ferroelectric and antiferroelectric liquid crystals. This layer rotation is reversible and takes place in both non-treated and rubbed cells. The optical response during layer rotation has been studied, and it is confirmed that the direction of the optical axis can be reversibly controlled by the accumulated number of applied voltage pulses.
