Polymer-dispersed liquid crystal elastomers
The need for mechanical manipulation during the curing of conventional liquid crystal elastomers diminishes their applicability in the field of shape-programmable soft materials and future applications in additive manufacturing. Here we report on polymer-dispersed liquid crystal elastomers, novel composite materials that eliminate this difficulty. Their thermal shape memory anisotropy is imprin...
متن کاملNanoparticle-doped polymer-dispersed liquid crystal display
Polymer-dispersed liquid crystals (PDLCs) represent an important new class of materials for optical device applications. Their valuable advantages such as low operating voltage, high contrast ratio, requiring no extra optical elements (i.e. polarizer), quick electrooptical response, no leakage of materials, simple fabrication, low-cost production and ease of processing make them more popular ov...
متن کاملControlling the anisotropy of holographic polymer-dispersed liquid-crystal gratings.
In this work we investigate the optical properties of electrically switched transmission gratings fabricated holographically using polymer-dispersed liquid-crystal (PDLC) materials. We have found that the PDLC mixture can be used to control the diffractive properties of the liquid-crystal composite gratings. In one limit the gratings are highly isotropic and in the other limit the gratings are ...

متن کاملReconfigurable random bit storage using polymer-dispersed liquid crystal
We present an optical method of storing random cryptographic keys, at high densities, within an electronically reconfigurable volume of polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) film. We demonstrate how temporary application of a voltage above PDLC’s saturation threshold can completely randomize (i.e., decorrelate) its optical scattering potential in less than a second. A unique optical setup is ...
