等方性ポリマー及び異方性ポリマーを混合したP型液晶リバースモードPDLCの電気光学特性

抄録

We fabricate homogeneously aligned reverse mode polymer dispersed liquid crystals(R-PDLCs) using p-type liquid crystal. Isotropic polymers which generate different morphologies, droplet, polymer network and polymer ball types in the normal PDLCs are mixed with an anisotropic polymer (reactive mesogen : RM). A driving voltage decreases by adding the isotropic polymer to the RM. In addition, both high transparency in the off-state and strong light scattering in the on-state can be obtained at a certain concentration of the isotropic polymer.
