Configuration Control of Liquid-Crystal in the Droplet Dispersed in the Polymer with Mesogenic Side-Group
A side chain liquid crystalline polymer was applied to control the alignment of liquid crystal molecules at the interface to the direction of mesogenic side group, The aspects of the alignment were monitored by observing the droplet in the PDLC film, When the composition of the mesogenic side group increases, the configuration of LC droplets changes from bipolar to radial one as designed.
