Photorefractive properties in homogeneous and heterogeneous polymer / liquid crystal composites ∗
The photorefractivity of a photorefractive composite consisting of poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) doped with a non-room-temperature liquid crystal, 4-butyloxy4’-cyanobiphenyl (4OCB), and C60 was studied by means of measuring the two-beam coupling coefficients. The results show that the photorefractivity is enhanced by phase separation. PACS: 42.65; 61.30; 61.40 Interest in materials that exhibit ...
متن کاملConjugated polymer liquid crystal solutions: control of conformation and alignment.
Stable solutions of conjugated poly(phenylene vinylene)s and poly(phenylene ethynylene)s in nematic liquid crystals are reported. The polymers all contain triptycene units fused into their backbones to obtain the high solubility needed to maintain solubility in complex liquid crystalline media. The polymer backbones align with the director of the nematic liquid crystal, and by applying electric...
متن کاملSoluble fullerene derivative in liquid crystal: polymer composites and their impact on photorefractive grating efficiency and resolution.
By using soluble fullerene derivative [60]PCBM, we improved photorefractive efficiency in polymer-liquid crystal composites in comparison to previous works on similar materials. We show the effect of polymer network results in resolution and bandwidth improvements compared to pure liquid crystals. This is explained by the introduction of a charge trapping mechanism, providing a memory effect fo...

متن کاملPlasmonic Nanoparticles-Liquid Crystal Composites†
We report on the plasmonic properties of 6 nm gold nanoparticles that form highly stable solutions in the nematic liquid crystal 4-cyano-4-n-pentylbiphenyl (5CB). The nanoparticles were covalently functionalized with 4-sulfanylphenyl-4-[4-(octyloxy)phenyl]benzoate, which resembles the structure of the 5CB molecules. The solubility of these nanoparticles in 5CB was significantly higher than that...
