Abstract:Two tricomponent room temperature nematic eutectic mixtures ABC and ABD with laterally uorinated constituents A and B were prepared as base mixtures for vertically aligned mode LCD's. The physical properties of these mixtures viz. birefringence, dielectric anisotropy, bend elastic constant, relaxation time and rotational viscosities were determined in order to compare with the optimum values required to achieve the target specications of VA mode materials. The dielectric anisotropy, ∆ε, and optical birefringen… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
