Macro-circuit simulation and optimal design for ferroelectric liquid crystal based on dielectric properties

A macro-circuit equivalent model for ferroelectric liquid crystal(FLC)is proposed.The model includes both effects of ferroelectric torque and dielectric torque and is utilized to simulate the switching response and memory behavior of a single FLC cell.Simulation results show that the delay time has a minimum while increasing the amplitude of drive voltage and the amplitude of bipolar pulses should be controlled within a certain range to realize the memory behavior.Also the switching angle is successfully enhanced to the reference value of 22.5°by adopting"AC stabilization"addressing method.     

FLC编码系统中材料参量设计的电路实验研究

提出用电路模型实验的方法对铁电液晶基相位编码系统进行材料参量设计.建立了编码系统中关于相位分析的铁电液晶电路模型.以铁电液晶材料的典型参数(自发极化强度、转动粘滞系数以及液晶薄膜厚度)为参变量,给出了稳态方位角(表征外加电场引起的铁电液晶折射率变化)与各参变量间的依赖关系,以及各参变量对调制速率的影响.实验结果表明:调制速率随自发极化强度的提高而增加,随转动粘滞系数、液晶薄膜厚度的提高而减慢.控制自发极化强度取值大于38nC/cm3,转动粘滞系数小于210mPa.s,液晶薄膜厚度小于24μm可使稳态方位角满足基于相位编码系统提出的参考值.
