Abstract

The effect of surfactants in the form of cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) in nematic liquid crystal cells of type 5CB have been studied by the polarization-optical method. The relationship between the concentrations of the introduced surfactant and the angle of rotation of the polarization plane is established. The clear boundaries of the linear and elliptical polarization of the light transmitted through the cell are indicated, depending on the concentration of surface-active substances (surfactants). Possible applications of such materials in semiconductor and solid-state laser technology and display technologies are proposed.
