Viscous Properties and Dynamic Electrooptical Performance in Twisted Nematic Displays of Several Liquid Crystal Classes
The temperature dependence of the rotational viscosities of several physically markedly different binary mixtures belonging to ten different liquid crystal classes is measured. An attempt is made to correlate the results with class-specific structural properties such as hydrogenated rings, molecular polarity and structure of flexible side-chains. It is show that the measured smallscale dynamic ...
متن کاملTransmission and reflection of a monochromatic beam in a twisted nematic wedge
The transmission and reflection of a monochromatic electromagnetic wave in a twisted nematic wedge are investigated, We consider the special case where the characteristic length f of the director twist is much higher than the optical wavelength A, By using the penurbative theoretical procedure proposed by Oldano et al., we find an analytic expression for the transmitted and reflected beams at t...
متن کاملDefect Core Structures in Twisted Nematic and Twisted Chiral Liquid Crystals
The defect structures of s = ±1/2 twist disclinations in twisted nematic and twisted chiral liquid crystals have been investigated within the Landau-de Gennes theory numerically. Our results show that there exists eigenvalue exchange across the defect core of both the two models. The defect core is essentially biaxial and never isotropic. The defect centre is uniaxial and is surrounded by a str...
متن کاملOptically active additives in twisted nematic devices
2014 A study has been made of the use of optically active additives in twisted nematic devices to remove areas of reverse twist, the results obtained depending on the chirality of the additives and the director alignment on the two containing surfaces. Under certain conditions degeneracy of the field induced reorientation of the director produces a patched appearance even in the absence of reve...
متن کاملNew bistable twisted nematic liquid crystal displays
We have developed new bistable twisted nematic ~BTN! displays that operate between the 2p/2 and 3p/2 twist states and between the p/2 and 5p/2 twist states. Together with the ~0,2p! BTN, this forms a set of all possible transmittive BTNs. Experimentally, it was confirmed that several switching wave forms could be used to switch the BTN from one state to another. Voltages below 10 V are sufficie...
