Electroclinic Effect in a Polymer-Dispersed Ferroelectric Liquid-Crystal
We report on the electo-optic behaviour of a chiral smectic A material dispersed in a uv-cured polymer adhesive. Shearing during the polymerization-induced phase separation resulted in an alignment of the liquid crystal. The ease of preparation suggests applications as flexible displays or shutters. The results are compared to those of the pure liquid crystal.
