Advanced electro-optical smart window based on PSLC using a photoconductive TiOPc electrode
This study demonstrates an electro-optical controllable smart window based on a liquid crystal device. The device integrates a photoconductive electrode based on TiOPc films into a liquid crystal shutter based on polymer-stabilised homeotropic aligned nematic liquid crystals (PSLC) connecting in series. The PSLC light shutter is transparent in electric field-off state; it scatters light as it switches to multi-domain structures in electric field-on states. The TiOPc film has an optically controllable impedance that manipulates the electric field on the PSLC film. The window transits into multi-transmission states according to the intensities of exposure light with an extra applied bias voltage.

Keeping up-to-date with research can feel impossible, with papers being published faster than you'll ever be able to read them. That's where Researcher comes in: we're simplifying discovery and making important discussions happen. With over 19,000 sources, including peer-reviewed journals, preprints, blogs, universities, podcasts and Live events across 10 research areas, you'll never miss what's important to you. It's like social media, but better. Oh, and we should mention - it's free.
Researcher displays publicly available abstracts and doesn’t host any full article content. If the content is open access, we will direct clicks from the abstracts to the publisher website and display the PDF copy on our platform. Clicks to view the full text will be directed to the publisher website, where only users with subscriptions or access through their institution are able to view the full article.
