AbstractPolymer dispersed liquid crystals ( PDLC ) are potentially useful as new types of display devices. By applying an electric field, one can switch the PDLC cell from a highly scattering opaque state to a transparent state. Normal PDLC cells consist of liquid crystal droplets, having sizes on the order of micrometers, embedded in a transparent polymer matrix. In this paper, we report the development of a new kind of PDLC cell with a distinct type of polymer morphology, teferred to as “reverse ” or “polymer ball ” type. The electro-optical behavior and the micro structure of the PDLC films were investigated by a He-Ne laser and the scanning electron microscopy ( SEA ) respectively.
