Abstract

Twisted nematic (TN) liquid crystal (LC) cells doped with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were fabricated and their electro-optic characteristics were studied. The CNTs with a minute amount of doping did not disturb the liquid crystal orientation in the off and on state. Effects of CNTs on voltage-dependent transmittance curves and voltage holding ratio were not found to be so strong. The response time however was improved as compared to pure LC.
