Light propagation through composite heterophase objects with liquid crystal material

We simulate LC director distribution and optical transmission of heterophase systems with different LC boundary conditions. The first type is a transparent isotropic material with spherical or cylindrical objects. The second type is an LC layer incorporating an isotropic transparent or non-transparent object. Systems parameters’ influence on LCD performances is discussed. © (2016) by SID-the Society for Information Display. All rights reserved.
