Theory of polymer-dispersed cholesteric liquid crystals.
A mean field theory is presented to describe cholesteric phases in mixtures of a polymer and a cholesteric liquid crystal. Taking into account an anisotropic coupling between a polymer and a liquid crystal, we examine the helical pitch, twist elastic constant, and phase separations. Analytical expressions of the helical pitch of a cholesteric phase and the twist elastic constant are derived as ...
متن کاملDynamics of polymer-dispersed cholesteric liquid crystals
We have studied the electrooptic properties of droplets of cholesteric liquid crystal dispersed in a polymer. Application of AC electric fields to the droplets leads to a conversion of the droplet from a nonreflecting to a selectively reflecting appearance. When the field is suddenly
متن کاملElectrophoresis in lyotropic polymer liquid crystals.
Excellent electrophoretic separations of a variety of biological molecules can be accomplished by using uncharged, triblock copolymers as the "gel" media. These copolymers form uncrosslinked, lyotropic liquid crystalline phases of large micelles between which molecules must travel. Unlike crosslinked hydrogels in common use, these alternative media have highly ordered internal structures. Pluro...
متن کاملAxially-symmetric sheared polymer network liquid crystals.
An axially-symmetric sheared polymer network liquid crystal (SPNLC) device is demonstrated and its performances characterized. Through analyzing the structure of this axially-symmetric SPNLC, we constructed a 3-D model to explain the observed phenomena. The simulation results agree well with the experiment. Two potential applications of such an axially-symmetric SPNLC, namely tunable-focus nega...
متن کاملExtended Kerr effect of polymer-stabilized blue-phase liquid crystals
Electric-field-induced birefringence of a polymer-stabilized blue-phase liquid crystal BPLC is investigated. In the low field region, conventional Kerr effect holds. As the electric field increases, the induced birefringence gradually saturates and deviates from Kerr effect. An exponential convergence model, called extended Kerr effect, is proposed to fit the experimental data. Good agreement b...
