Paper-like Displays Using Polymer Network Liquid Crystals

Abstract

In a paper-like display using polymer network liquid crystals, we have improved the voltage holding ratio in order to enhance capabilities maintaining images on a screen for a long period without updating on a screen. Maintaining images for 10 minutes can be achieved by high purification of Liquid crystals (LC) mixtures as well as diacrylates. This opens up the development of low power paper-like displays in active matrix.
