Width and length of bullets. a Transmitted light intensity measured across two bullets, “1” (f = 500 Hz, U = 41.2 V) and “2” (850 Hz, 56.4 V) in the same cell with d = 7.8 µm; the profile is measured as a function of x-coordinate along the line that passes through the transmission maximum (such as line i = 33 in Fig. 1b). b Longitudinal profiles of the same 1 and 2 bullets, measured as a function of y-coordinate along the line that passes through maximum transmittance (such as line j = 14 in Fig. 1b). Note that the width w shows practically no dependence on the applied voltage, while the length L increases with voltage
