Theoretical and experimental results for waveguide modes with a distinctive channel waveguide switching geometry are presented from the viewpoint of improving the switching contrast for hybrid-mode propagation. The channel waveguide structure consists of two types of active material covering regions of a nematic liquid crystal; one has a pair of strip electrodes, and the other is without electrodes. An experimental switch is demonstrated to have the contrast ratio of 1430 for the hybrid modes with E(1n)(y) primary components.
