Abstract
We present a novel thresholdless switching mode in an antiferroelectric liquid crystal cell which is stabilized by the presence of polar anchoring at the cell surfaces and the antiferroelectric nature of the material. We also suggest other possible configurations which are induced by strong polar anchoring and possess quite different director structures and optical characteristics.
