A macroscopic model is developed for analyzing the electro-optics of short-pitch uniform lying helix (ULH) cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs). Both flexoelectric effect and dielectric effect make important contributions to the maximum transmittance and operation voltage of the ULH devices. Based on the proposed macroscopic approximation, we derive an analytical expression to quantitatively evaluate the relative strength of these two effects. Very good agreement between theory and experiment is achieved. We also investigate the viewing angle of ULH CLC displays and find that their viewing angle characteristics are similar to those of conventional in-plane switching liquid crystal displays.
