Diffractive liquid crystal device for privacy window with a low operating voltage
Source abstract
Abstract
We demonstrate using a diffractive smart window with homogeneous-aligned (HA) liquid crystals (LCs) owing to the large spatial phase difference in all directions in the opaque state. The proposed grating cell had a high haze value (88.57%), which was 1.16 times higher than the previously reported vertically aligned (VA) grating cells because the proposed grating cell had a higher twist angle than what the VA grating cell had. Our proposed HA grating cell can be used in various smart window applications.
