چکیده

The dispersion relation on the Kerr constant (K) of a polymer-stabilized isotropic phase (PSIP) liquid-crystal (LC) composite is investigated. Our experimental results show that K decreases as the wavelength (λ) increases. The single-band birefringence dispersion model is used to fit the λK values of the PSIP LC composite. Very good agreement between the experiment and physical model is obtained.

Emerging Liquid Crystal Displays Based on the Kerr Effect

The device physics and electro-optical properties of emerging liquid crystal displays (LCDs) based on the Kerr effect are investigated. With a voltage applied, both blue phase and polymer-stabilized blue phase exhibit a fascinating isotropic-toanisotropic transition. We have developed a numerical model to understand the underlying device physics in order to optimize device performance. The oper...
