نویسندگان
چکیده
New optical rewritable (ORW) electronic paper is the joint result of advanced photoalignment of liquid crystals, optical engineering and flexible LCD technologies. We report improvement of both dark and bright states of reflective ORW e-paper by doping LC with fluorescent dye, which absorb blue light & emit in green with high efficiency.

متن کاملA polarizer-free flexible and reflective electrooptical switch using dye-doped liquid crystal gels.
A polarizer-free flexible and reflective electro-optical switch using dye-doped liquid crystal (LC) gels is demonstrated. The electro-optical performances of both scattering and absorption based dye-doped LC gels depend on curing temperatures due to domain sizes of polymer networks. Such flexible electro-optical switch is bendable and trim-able because of the vertical polymer networks and gel-l...
متن کاملA Polarizer-Free Electro-Optical Switch Using Dye-Doped Liquid Crystal Gels
We demonstrate a polarizer-free electro-optical switch using dye-doped liquid crystal (LC) gels. The mechanism of dye-doped LC gels mainly involves the combination of polymer scattering and dye absorption. However, the domain size of polymer networks, dye concentration, LC concentration, and fabrication process can all affect the phase separation process and thus result in dye-doped LC gels wit...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of Laser Emission of Dye-Doped Cholesteric Liquid Crystals with a Cholesteric Reflector
Dye-doped cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) behaves like a one-dimensional photonic crystal laser when pumped by a second harmonic Nd-YAG pulsed laser. Usually circularly polarized laser light in the same sense as the cholesteric helix is emitted from both directions of the lasing cell. In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate the laser emission enhancement and investigate the corresponding ...
متن کاملLight-induced rotation of dye-doped liquid crystal droplets.
We investigate both theoretically and experimentally the rotational dynamics of micrometric droplets of dye-doped and pure liquid crystal induced by circularly and elliptically polarized laser light. The droplets are dispersed in water and trapped in the focus of the laser beam. Since the optical torque acting on the molecular director is known to be strongly enhanced in light-absorbing dye-dop...
