Controlling 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 کاملPolymer-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 کاملSwitchable circular-to-point converter based on holographic polymer-dispersed liquid-crystal technology.
We demonstrate the use of a switchable circular-to-point converter (SCPC) device based on holographic polymer-dispersed liquid-crystal technology for application in lidar detection and optical telecommunication. A SCPC device converts the Fabry-Perot ring pattern into a single point or an array of points, while an external electrical field on the SCPC deactivates the conversion. Stacking differ...
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 کاملTemperature Tunability of Dielectric/ Liquid Crystal / Dielectric Photonic Crystal Structures
Recently, photonic crystals doped with liquid crystal (LC) material havegained much research interest. In this article new ternary one-dimensional photoniccrystal introduced and studied. The liquid crystal layer of 5CB and 5PCH is sandwichedby two dielectric layers. For the first time, we use four structures SiO2/UCF35/CaF2,SiO2/5CB/CaF2, NFK51/UCF35/NPSK53 and NFK51/5CB/NPSK53. The effect ofte...
