Aiming for realizing ultrafast response by rotating the long axis of the liquid crystal molecule, novel driving scheme based on photo-induced flexoelectric effect are investigated. As a fundamental experiment, response time of nematic liquid crystal mixed with p-dimethylamino-azobenzene are measured with using sandwiched cell whose inner bottom surface has groove structure.
