Formation and Characterization of Transmission Holographic Gratings Obtained Using a Novel Siloxane-containing Liquid Crystal
Year: 2005
Type: article
Abstract: Liquid crystalline compounds with a siloxane component in the tail were found to be effective in the formation of holographic gratings of polymer dispersed liquid crystal systems over a wide concentration range from 3wt% to 30wt%. The structure of the siloxane chain had a big effect on the performance of the gratings. Fine gratings with a diffractive efficiency of 40wt% could be formed with a liquid crystalline compound containing 3wt% disiloxane.
