Large range electrically-induced reflection notch tuning in polymer stabilized cholesteric liquid crystals

Abstract

This communication reports large magnitude (exceeding 1500 nm) and reversible reflection notch tuning in polymer stabilized cholesteric liquid crystals (PSCLCs) formulated with negative dielectric anisotropy (−Δε) hosts upon application of a direct current (DC) field.
