Abstract
ABSTRACTWe have prepared the composite of a room temperature nematic liquid crystalline material namely 4-(trans-4′-n-hexylcyclohexyl) isothiocyanatobenzoate (6CHBT) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Thermodynamic, electro-optic and dielectric properties of the prepared composite have been investigated. From these investigations, parameters such as transition temperature, dielectric anisotropy, dielectric permittivity and splay elastic constant have been determined for the pristine as well as composite systems. Threshold switching voltage of the pure and composite samples has also been determined from transmission voltage curve. The effects of dispersion of AgNPs on dielectric and electro-optic parameters of LC-NPs composite have been discussed in terms of existing standard models.
