The electrical, optical and dielectric performance of high-dielectric-constant TiO 2
nanoparticles (NPs) dispersed in nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) with high dielectric …

We demonstrated a low-voltage polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC) for
phase-only modulation with a liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCoS). A new device configuration …

We propose a switchable phase grating using fringe field switching (FFS) cells. The FFS
phase grating possesses several attractive features: large diffraction angle, high diffraction …

A submillisecond-response and light scattering-free polymer-network liquid crystal (PNLC)
for infrared spatial light modulators is demonstrated. Our new liquid crystal host exhibits a …

The synthesis and characterization of new 2, 2-difluorovinyloxyl terminated tolane liquid
crystals are reported. The mesomorphic properties, mid-wave infrared (MWIR) absorption …

Image sticking in thin film transistor-liquid crystal displays (TFT-LCD) is related to the
dielectric property of liquid crystal (LC) material. Low threshold value TFT LC materials have …

This work demonstrates a micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) technology based
infrared thin film, which converts absorbed visible light energy into infrared radiation. The …

An infrared (IR) scene generation chip based on multi-layer thin film was demonstrated.
Infrared radiation was efficiently converted from visible light energy through chip absorption …
