基于α-氰基二苯乙烯衍生物的高对比度电切换发光液晶显示器
- 摘要:Light-emitting liquid crystal displays (LE-LCDs), serving as emissive displays, are considered as promising alternatives to conventional LCDs because of their superior power efficiency. A dichroic fluorescent dye (Z)-2-(4-aminophenyl)-3-(4-(fluorophenyl)acrylonitrile (CN-AFAN) is synthesised, which exhibits strong fluorescence in the solution and solid states. Moreover, an electrically switchable optical switch based on CN-AFAN and a cholesteric liquid crystal is demonstrated, which combines the internal scattering of excitation light and the dichroism of CN-AFAN to improve fluorescence contrast. The photoluminescence and transmittance of the optical switch is modulated by an electric field between the planar state, focal conic state, and homeotropic state. The resultant device is cost-effective and easy to fabricate, thereby demonstrating immense potential for security and display applications. Graphical Abstract
