Abstract
ABSTRACTThe nematic liquid crystals (LCs) are randomly dispersed material with random orientation order in polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) films. The LCs change their orientation from random to vertical as electric field is applied. This transformation of orientation order of nematic liquid crystals in the PDLC films is controlled by many factors operating simultaneously. For instance, some factors like the internal forces of attractions among the neighboring LC molecules, anchoring with polymeric matrix, ITO glass boundaries, and chemical structures of the materials are less studied. The learning of extent of vertical orientation of liquid crystal droplets in an electric field is essential to attain optimum electro optical properties of PDLCs. In this finding, bipolar and radial LCs droplets with random orientation have been observed in non-acrylic polymeric media. It is learned that with small increase of contents of external material, the extent of vertical orientation has been varied intensely. The extent of vertical orientation of LCs molecules increases as the contents of external non-acrylic polymeric material decreased. For this study, the orientations of LCs with respect to material type/contents, external applied force, and restoration of electric filed as hysteresis have been studied in details.
