Abstract

A method for driving a cholesteric liquid crystal display, wherein the method includes steps as follows: Firstly, a reflective cholesteric liquid crystal panel including a pixel array composed of a plurality of pixel units is provided. Next, a scanning operation is performed on the pixel array. The scanning operation includes steps as follows: A continuous fixed pulse is applied to at least one of the plurality of pixel units lasting for a time period, so as to make a cholesterol liquid crystal layer of the at least one of the plurality of pixel units having a uniform lying helix (ULH) phase; and a maintaining pulse that is smaller than the continuous fixed pulse is applied to the at least one of the plurality of pixel units.
