We report on the optical properties of the nematic (N) phase formed by lyotropic chromonic
liquid crystals (LCLCs) in well aligned planar samples. LCLCs belong to a broad class of …

Tuning 3D refractive indices of polymers is urgently needed for optical films, but it is quite
challenging. Here, we proposed a simple constrained uniaxial stretch method that …

Sun glints are formed by specular reflections of the sun from capillary waves formed by wind
blowing over water. These glints are normally colorless for a high sun or take on the color of …

The optical properties of luminescent molecules dissolved in liquid crystals have led to their
proposed use in luminescent thin-film polarizers. These molecules are typically required to …

We propose a new approach for the production of thin film optical functional materials. The
method is based on molecular design whereby two different types of lyotropic liquid crystals …

Current LCD designs have about 5–7% transmittance in the white state without the use of
DBEF3M (double brightness enhancing film) and up to 10–14% with DBEF film. We …

Crysoptix developed a novel approach to manufacturing coatable Thin Birefringence Film
(TBF™) retarders based on molecular engineering of organic transparent materials. The …

The packaging structures of polarized white light-emitting diodes (PWLEDs) can be
implemented with a reflective polarizer and a diffusive light source for enhancing …

Выполнен обзор патентной и научно-технической литературы по технологии и
свойствам тонкопленочных (несколько мкм) линейных и циркулярных поляризаторов, а …

We have studied a new class of materials for LCD retarders produced by Cascade
crystallization method. Advanced materials comprise the amphiphilic compounds and …
