The effects of surfactant on the electro-optic properties of holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal(HPDLC) have been studied hoping to increase the diffraction efficiency and to reduce the anchoring energy at interfaces. Octanoic acid(OA) was used as sulfactant. The 2,2,2 trifluoroethyl acrylate(TFEA) was added to the monomer mixture to enhance the phase separation and improve optical properties. The morphology of holographic gratings was examined using scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Addition of surfactant was likely to reduce the surface anchoring of the nematic droplet with the polymer surface which favors lowering of the swiching field and to improve the optical qualities.

Banana-shaped molecules were synthesized introducing ester linking group into mesogenic unit, varying the central unit with 1,6-, 2,3-naphthylenes, and introducing the hexyloxy group as the terminal flexible unit. The properties of the compounds were characterized by FT-IR, NMR spectroscopy, DSC, polarizing optical microscopy, and X-ray diffractometry.

Three ring type liquid crystalline compounds having 4-alklycyclohexyl group, 1,2-difluorobenzene and phenylisothiocyanate moieties as main skeleton were designed to have negative dielectricity. However, the compounds with 2,3,2'-trifluoro-3'-isothiocyanated biphenylcyclohexane core did not exhibit the nematic liquid crystalline phase because of two conformers by interaction of isothiocyanate and adjacent fluorine atoms. Also, 4-alkyl-2,2',3'-trifluoro-3-isothiocyanated biphenylcyclohexane core was designed expecting to have uniform conformers of isothiocyanate group. In the course of developing polyimides for VA mode LCD, we synthesized alkyl-3,5-diaminobenzene efficiently with various length of alkyl chains from commercially available di-t-butyl malonate and 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride as starting material.

Three-ring types liquid crystalline compounds having fluoro and isothiocyanate substituent were synthesized and their physical and electro-optical properties were measured to evaluate the applications to active matrix VA liquid crystal displays. The tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) catalyzed cross coupling of aryl boronic acids with aryl halides is used to prepare trans-4'-Alkoxy-2,3-difluoro-3'-isothiocyanato-4-(4-alkylcyclohexyl}-biphenyl series. The synthesized compounds showed the nematic liquid crystalline phase and the negative dielectric anisotropy. The prepared mixtures showed faster response time and lower threshold voltage than their host mixture.

The LCD based on Kerr effect is highly interesting because it uses an optically isotropic state with no need of alignment layer and it shows sub-millisecond response time. The problem of the device is that it requires very high operating voltage and the transmittance is relatively low compared with other LCDs that use nematic LC. In this work, we study on various electrode structures and driving method which can lower operating voltage.

We demonstrate a pixel-isolated bistable twist-splay namatic (PI-BTSN) liquid crystal (LC) cell which has two stable states of splay and ${\pi}$-twist. Each state is stabilized by a multi-dimensional anchoring effect of pixel-isolating polymer walls without any chiral additives. Polymer walls are formed around the pixel region by anisotropic phase separation between LCs and reactive mesogens. Switching between the two states is archived by using vertical and horizontal electric fields. The memory mode of the fabricated LC cell has shown infinity memory time.

In the present study, we propose MC simulation that takes interface phenomena between liquid crystal and substrate into consideration. We use rigid model molecules of liquid crystal and substrate. Interface is generated using potential field that induces decomposition of molecules.

We present the results of computer simulation for the steady shear flows of rodlike molecules using nonequi-librium molecular dynamics simulation (NEMD) method. The model particle is a rigid rod composed of lin-early connected 6-sites and the Lennard-Jones 12-6 potential governs interactions between sites in different molecules. The system of rodlike molecules exhibits the change of orientational structure, that is, isotropic-nematic transition at high shear rates. We elucidate the nature of the ordered system developed from an isotro-pic phase by steady shear through an analysis of various quantities: orientational order parameters, orientational pair correlation functions, orientational distribution function, and snapshots of configurations. The effects of temperature and density on the shear rate dependence of orientational structure are described.

A series of new liquid crystalline compounds having two identical mesogenic terminal units, the 4-(p-nitrobenzoyloxy)phenoxy group, attached to both ends of a central polymethylene spacer of various lengths was prepared. The mesomorphic properties of the compounds were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and by polarizing microscopy. Almost all of the compounds formed monotropic nematic mesophases. The trimethylene spacer compound was found to be non-liquid crystalline, while the one with the hexamethylene central spacer was enantiotropic. A thermodynamic analysis was performed for the phase transitions of the compounds and the results are discussed in relation to their liquid crystal properties.

셀로비오스, 말토오스 그리고 락토오스를 1-{4-(4'-시아노페닐아조)펜옥시}옥틸브롬 혹은 1-{4-(4'-시아노페닐아조)펜옥시카보닐}헵타노일 클로라이드와 반응시켜 옥타[8-{4-(4'-시아노페닐아조)펜옥시}]옥틸 그리고 옥타[8-{4-(4'-시아노페닐아조)펜옥시카보닐}]헵타노화 이당류 유도체들을 합성함과 동시에 이들의 열방성 액정과 광화학적 상전이 거동을 검토하였다. 모든 {(시아노페닐아조)펜옥시}옥틸 이당류 에테르들(CADETs)은 단방성 네마틱(N) 상들을 형성하는 반면 모든 {(시아노페닐아조)펜옥시카보닐}헵타노화 이당류 에스터들(CADESs)은 양방성 N 상들을 형성하였다. CADETs에 비해, CADESs는 높은 액체(I) 상에서 N 상으로의 전이 온도들을 나타냈다. 유리 셀 혹은 러빙된 폴리이미드(PI) 배향막을 지닌 셀 중에서 N 상을 형성하고 있는 이당류 유도체에 광을 조사시킬 경우, 아조벤젠기의 trans-cis 이성화에 의해 N 상은 I 상으로 변하였다. 한편, 광 조사시켜 얻은 시료를 광을 차단한 상태로 방치할 경우 열에 의한 cis-trans 이성화와 trans 아조벤젠기들의 재배열로 인하여 I 상은 최초의 N 상으로 변하였다. 유리 셀의 경우에 비해 러빙된 PI 배향막을 지닌 셀의 경우가 이당류 유도체들의 광화학적 N-I 그리고 열적 I-N 상전이 속도들은 빠르며 시아노아조벤젠기를 지닌 monomesogenic 화합물들 그리고 4-{4'-(시아노페닐아조)펜옥시}옥틸 글루코오스 그리고 셀룰로오스 에테르들에 대해 관찰되는 결과들에 비해 현저히 달랐다. 이러한 결과를 주사슬의 유연성, 반복단위당에 도입된 메소겐기들의 수 그리고 아조벤젠기들간의 거리에 기인한 아조벤젠기들의 협동효과의 차이의 견지에서 검토하였다.
