  • Blue phase liquid crystal nanocomposites and devices containing the same
    Patent number: 8580144
    Abstract: A composition including nanocomposites formed from blue phase liquid crystals that are stabilized with dopants and nanorods such as metallic nanorods and/or carbon nanotubes. Devices including the compositions are disclosed that provide increases temperature ranges as well as reduction in threshold voltage and turn on voltage, in addition to the inherent blue phase liquid crystal properties of sub-millisecond response time in the field induced Kerr effect.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 6, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 12, 2013
    Assignee: Kent State University
    Inventors: Liang-Chy Chien, Jeoung Yeon Hwang, Jenny-Marie Wong
