Physical Aspects of Electro-optic Properties of Smectic Liquid Crystals
We present an E ective Internal Field Model for the antiferroelectric (AF) to eld induced ferroelectric (FF) transition of smectic CA. This model attributes the fast dynamics and high threshold elds of this transition to the large magnitudes of its in-plane polarization. We conclude that propagating ngers observed in the vicinity of the AF $ FF threshold eld can only be observed in holding elds...
متن کاملEffect of different concentrations of dopant titanium dioxide nanoparticles on electro-optic and dielectric properties of ferroelectric liquid crystal mixture
In the present study, the insulating titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles were dispersed in two different concentrations of 0.5 wt % and 1.0 wt % in pure ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) mixture, W206E. The effects of different concentrations of dopant TiO2 in W206E for electro-optical and dielectric properties have been studied. The optical microscopy measurements clearly show the isotropic...
متن کاملDiffraction light modulator based on transverse electro-optic effect in short-pitch ferroelectric liquid crystals.
A diffraction modulator that exploits the transverse electro-optic effect in ferroelectric liquid crystals is proposed for applications in displays and in spatial light modulators. Experiments with a short-pitch ferroelectric liquid crystal aligned homeotropically show an achromatic contrast ratio of greater than 100:1 available with oblique readout. The sources of the contrast deterioration an...

متن کاملViscoelastic Properties of Biological Materials
Almost all of biological tissues are viscoelastic and their viscoelastic mechanical properties are important in their characteristic functions. This is because constituents of tissues cells, extracellular matrices, structural proteins, and so on are viscoelastic. Even hard tissues have been shown to be viscoelastic. For long, main sample material for investigating the viscoelasticity has be...
