Liquid Crystal

Liquid crystals are unique states of matter that have properties between liquids and solids. Their molecules can flow like a liquid but are ordered in a structured way like a crystal. This organization allows their molecules to change orientation in response to electrical signals, which makes them ideal for display devices like screens. When an electric current is applied, the molecules realign, controlling how light passes through, creating images or text. This combination of fluidity and order enables precise control over light, making liquid crystals essential for modern display technology.
