PBa03 物理的ゲル化による液晶の電場応答特性制御とフッ素系ネマチック液晶への応用

We succeeded in the formation of nematic liquid-crystalline physical gels by the hydrogen-bonded network formation of amino acid derivatives in nematic liquid crystals. The resultant liquid-crystalline gels exhibit microphase-separated structures and electro-optic responses in twisted nematic (TN) cells. Acceleration of response behavior of nematic liquid crystals by the physical gel formation has been observed. Response behavior of a fluorinated nematic liquid crystal can be improved by the use of the network aggregates.
