66.2: Effects Of Diluters On High Δn And Low Viscosity Negative Δε Liquid Crystals

Abstract

Lateral difluoro terphenyls exhibit a high birefringence, fairly low viscosity, and modest dielectric anisotropy, but their alignment in a VA cell is often deteriorated at elevated temperatures if their concentration goes high. We have studied the effects of six diluters for lowering the viscosity while stabilizing the VA alignment of the terphenyl host mixture at elevated temperatures. The pros and cons of each diluter are analyzed.
