Abstract
Polymer stabilized liquid crystal (PSLC) devices modulating the light that goes through them have broad applications. In this study, to improve the electro-optical properties of a PSLC device, Ag nanowires with diameter about 20 nm were doped into PSLC active layer with different concentrations. The influence of Ag nanowires concentration on the driving voltage, on-state response time and frequency modulation characteristics of a PSLC device were studied. The results indicate that the doping of Ag nanowires can reduce the driving voltage of PSLC cell up to 42%. The response time of the PSLC cell can decrease by about 41%. Meanwhile, frequency modulation does not show significant improvement upon Ag nanowire doping. Overall, Ag nanowire doping can improve the electro-optical properties of PSLC device effectively.
