本論文研究以圓盤型液晶混合向列型液晶,和向列型液晶混合旋光性物質形成雙成份液晶複合系,探討兩複合系的相行為與光電特性,(圓盤型/向列型)液晶複合系在80/20~30/70 wt%下會產生誘導層列相,此誘導層列相可用特殊分子排列和堆疊方式解釋,而(向列型/旋光性物質)液晶複合系,則在低旋光比例(20%以下)誘導出N*相,中旋光比例(25~30%)誘導出包含BP和TGBA*等frustrated液晶相,高旋光比例(40~80%)則形成SmA*相,複合系分子排列的整齊性,隨旋光性物質含量增加和溫度的降低而逐漸提高,此複合系受電場大小和頻率變化的影響亦為研究課題。
Two binary liquid-crystalline composite systems were composed of (a nematogen and a discotic mesogen) and (a nematogen and a chiral dopant). The phase behaviour and optical-electro properties of two binary composites have been investigated. The former system yielded an induced SmA phase in the range of 80/20~30/70 wt.%. The layer-stacking structure of binary composite was proposed in the SmA phase. The latter system formed N* phase in the S811 content under 20 wt.%. The frusted phases, BP and TGBA*, and the SmA* phases were formed in the range 25~30% and 40~80%. The orientational ordering of the binary composites increased with increasing the chiral dopant content and decreasing sample temperature. The optical-electro properties were also investigated under the external electric field.
