  • Patent number: 11256008
    Abstract: Disclosed are a laser protective film and a laser protective device comprising the same. The laser protective film comprises, stackingly disposed: a first liquid crystal polymer layer for reflecting left-hand polarized light, a second liquid crystal polymer layer for reflecting right-hand polarized light, and a third liquid crystal polymer layer for absorbing incident laser. In the above way, the laser protective film of the present disclosure has a large angle of protection, high flexibility. In addition, it is easy to find any damage to the laser protective film of the present disclosure. Moreover, it can make modification to existing equipment. Thus, the present disclosure has a good application prospect in many fields such as laser goggles, window glass and the like.

  • Patent number: 11168256
    Abstract: A liquid crystal mixture and a temperature-responsive infrared reflection device made by using the liquid crystal mixture containing potassium laurate. Infrared light can pass through the device within a non-working temperature range, and a chiral dopant enables potassium laurate to form a cholesteric phase within a working temperature range. The birefringence value of the potassium laurate gradually increases with the increase of temperature between 12.5° C. and 26° C., so that the infrared reflection bandwidth of the device constantly increases. The birefringence value of the potassium laurate gradually decreases with the increase of temperature between 26° C. and 54.5° C., so that the infrared reflection bandwidth of the device constantly decreases. The infrared reflection bandwidth of the infrared reflection device can vary with temperature by adjusting the proportions of the ingredients of the liquid crystal mixture containing potassium laurate.

  • Publication number: 20200326591
    Abstract: An electrically-responsive infrared reflective device filled with positive liquid crystals, a chiral doping agent, a light absorbing agent and a polymer network. The light absorbing agent is capable of causing a gradient change in light intensity in the filled area irradiated by ultraviolet light, so that the concentration of the polymer network changes in a gradient, thereby forming a gradient of pitch of the positive liquid crystal helix structure. When a power supply voltage is applied, the long axis of the positive liquid crystal will rotate in a direction parallel to the electric field. Since the anchoring effect of the polymer network on the liquid crystals decreases with the decrease of the concentration of the polymer network, the pitch of the positive liquid crystals is gradually damaged, such that the infrared reflection bandwidth of the infrared reflective device gradually reduces from a long wavelength to 0 nm.
