Abstract

Owing to anisotropic light emission, an aligned quantum-rods (QRs) array paired with LCD backlight offers a viable option to achieve the light polarization and enhance the color gamut. Herein, we present a facile approach for the fabrication of a functional film with unidirectional ordered QRs by utilizing solvent-based UV-curable reactive-mesogen and an in-plane electric field. The film exhibits partially polarized light with polarization ratio value of 0.42, which was mainly attributed to the QRs alignment in the electrode gap area of IPS substrate.
