Which outcome occurs when photoalignment fails in liquid crystalline materials' thin molecular layers?

💡 Explanation

Without proper molecular orientation driven by the Anchoring Transition at interfaces, liquid crystal molecules don't respond predictably to electric fields because random orientation increases switching delay (response time), therefore speed decreases rather than improving contrast.
