Viewing Angle Measurement of Polymer-Dispersed Liquid Crystal

Abstract

Polymer-dispersed liquid crystals are one kind of important devices. With a He-Ne laser and a photoelectric detector, we measured the driving-voltage dependent and viewing-angle dependent transmission for a polymer-dispersed liquid crystal device. Our results showed that the polymer-dispersed liquid crystal device worked at the driving voltage of 4 V and the effective viewing angle of about 65 degree.
