Abstract

Due to the discoloration properties under different applied voltages, dye-doped polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) films are widely used as camouflage nets and invisibility cloaks. However, the range of the discoloration has an intuitive effect on their applications. In this work, we studied the gamut range of PDLC film doped with dyes of red, green, blue, and yellow, with the concentration corresponding to the minimum haze of these dyes. The influence of the applied voltage on the color range of single-layer and double-layer films with different backgrounds was studied. The relationship of the voltage with the color was set from 0 V to 60 V at steps of 5 V, to characterize the discoloration of the PDLC films. The results showed that the films could cover 42.48% of the sRGB gamut and even exceed the range.
