Influence of Surface Alignment Layers on Digital Memory PDLC Devices for Electrically Written Information Storage
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The permanent memory effect in polymer-dispersed liquid crystal systems imparts unique properties to these devices, making them well-suited for digital memory applications. By investigating the impact of homogeneous alignment layer types on this effect, we successfully developed and tested a proof-of-concept prototype capable of recording information in both opaque and transparent states within a digital process.
