62.2: Invited Paper: Fast Electro‐Optical Switching in Polymer‐Stabilized Liquid Crystalline Blue Phases for Display Application
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the sufficiently large electric field-induced birefringence and the micro-second response of the polymer-stabilized blue phases and the induced-isotropic phases without any surface treatment.

Electro-optics of polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal displays
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical model for characterizing and optimizing the electro-optical and display properties of polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal displays (BP LCDs) is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electro-optical switching of graphene oxide liquid crystals with an extremely large Kerr coefficient
TL;DR: It is shown that when interflake interactions are sufficiently weak, both the degree of microscopic ordering and the direction of macroscopic alignment of GO liquid crystals (LCs) can be readily controlled by applying low electric fields.

Polymer-stabilized liquid crystal blue phases
Hirotsugu Kikuchi,Hirotsugu Kikuchi,Masayuki Yokota,Yoshiaki Hisakado,Huai Yang,Tisato Kajiyama +5 more
TL;DR: This work shows the stabilization of blue phases over a temperature range of more than 60 K including room temperature (260–326 K), and demonstrates an electro-optical switching with a response time of the order of 10−4 s for the stabilized blue phases at room temperature.

Field controlled light scattering from nematic microdroplets
TL;DR: In this article, the light scattering and electro-optic response of new material with display potential are investigated, which consist of microdroplets of nematic liquid crystals which are spontaneously formed in a solid polymer at the time of its polymerization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymer dispersed nematic liquid crystal for large area displays and light valves
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the macroscopic electro-optical properties of the liquid crystal film can be modeled if the distribution of liquid-crystal droplet sizes is known.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cholesteric liquid crystal/polymer dispersion for haze‐free light shutters
TL;DR: In this paper, a new dispersion involving a polymer in low concentration with a cholesteric liquid crystal is reported, and two types of light modulators from these materials are described as a normal mode shutter which is opaque (light scattering) in the field-off state and transparent in field-on state and a reverse-mode shutter with the opposite field conditions.

XL. A new relation between electricity and light: Dielectrified media birefringent
TL;DR: A new relation between electricity and light: dielectrified media birefringent was proposed in this article, where the authors proposed a dielectric media bifurcation.
