Electro-optic properties of polystyrene particle-laden polymer-stabilized liquid crystals
Alexandra Gruzdenko, Ingo Dierking
Abstract
Polystyrene particle-laden polymer-stabilized liquid crystals demonstrate better electro-optic performance than both polymer-stabilized and particle-laden liquid crystals made of the same materials. An explanation for this behaviour is suggested.
