Abstract: The optical properties of cholesteric liquid crystals have been turned to good effect in ink and paint technologies, and in flat-panel displays and thermal imaging. Now a new development involving these materials has come along. It is a cholesteric glass, which is stable at room temperature, and offers rewritable, full-colour image recording. Among the potential applications are information display and storage.
