After watching [Ben Krasnow]’s efforts to build a liquid crystal display, we can easily see why the suits thought what they did. It’s an amazing engineering feat. Before building his own ...

What are Liquid Crystal Nanoparticles? Liquid crystal nanoparticles (LCNPs) are a unique class of nanomaterials that combine the properties of liquid crystals with the advantages of nanoparticles.

LCD technology utilizes the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers. These crystals do not emit light directly but use a backlight or reflector to produce images in ...

The POSTECH research team has developed a synthesis method that precisely controls the size and shape of PNCs using a liquid crystal (LC) as an antisolvent in the LARP method. LC is an ...

Microdisplays based on liquid-crystal-on-silicon technology may soon ... colour gamut and can achieve well in excess of the ITU-R Recommendation BT.709 colour gamut (for high-definition television ...

More than $2 billion has been spent over the past 15 years in trying to develop the technology and infrastructure behind liquid-crystal-on-silicon (LCoS) displays. After a fitful start ...
