Problems solved by technology

In addition, the research on polymer network-stabilized cholesteric liquid crystals (PSCT) is also very active. If cholesteric liquid crystals with different pitches are selected inside, the display state of the device can be between transparent state and colored scattering state. Switching between them makes it possible to produce high-contrast color liquid crystal display devices
However, the supertwisting of cholesteric liquid crystals in PSCT makes the device drive voltage very high
[0006] The existing polymeric network liquid crystal dimming devices in the prior art have the problems of high total light transmittance and poor dimming performance after power-on, and it is difficult to meet the needs of the prior art

Abstract

The invention provides a polymer network liquid crystal dimming device. The dimming device includes an upper substrate layer, a lower substrate layer and a liquid crystal dielectric layer located between the upper substrate layer and the lower substrate layer; and the liquid crystal dielectric layer includes a polymeric compound, a nematic liquid crystal composition, dye and a photoinitiator, wherein the polymeric compound has a structure shown as a general formula I. The dimming device has appropriate threshold voltage and saturation voltage, low all-optical transmittance and good dimming performance; and the dimming device can have better light adjusting transmittance and dimming effects by adjusting the all-optical transmittance through voltage.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a polymeric network liquid crystal dimming device, in particular to a polymeric network liquid crystal dimming device containing dyes. Background technique [0002] In recent years, since polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) has shown strong advantages and great potential in the fields of optical switch and projection display, the research work in this field has been very active and great progress has been made. The conventional PDLC structure is to separate the nematic liquid crystal from an isotropic polymer material by phase separation, forming many micron-scale liquid crystal droplets, and changing the orientation of liquid crystal molecules by applying a certain electric field. The matching relation of the refractive index between the liquid crystal droplet and the polymer is adjusted, so as to realize the display of light modulation. [0003] PDLC has a simple preparation process, does not require polarizers, and can ...
