Abstract
This intermediate phase between solid and liquid enables liquid crystal engineers for various interesting yet fascinating thermo-optical applications. One such application of exploited for electric vehicle safety is optical shutter realized using thermotropic liquid crystals. Optical shutters are essential components in various optical systems, in providing control over the transmission of visible light. These shutters are categorized into various types of mechanical shutters, electro-optical shutters, liquid crystal optical shutters (LCOS) etc. liquid crystal cells and polarizing elements to quickly change the transmittance of light, making them ultimate for applications such as imaging and precision illumination. In this work, we explored the experimental techniques, key specifications, features, and applications of an optical shutter developed using liquid crystalline material LCOS.
