The kit allows students and researchers to practically explore a range of topics based around the ... real "hands-on" experience. Demonstration software, Matlab interface and an SDK are included. NEW: ...

The devices are filtered for minimal curvature and have the following parameters: Resolution: 1280x720 pixels Bit Depth: 8-bit greyscale Input frame addressing: 60 Hz (DVI port addressing) Pixel Size: ...

A ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal is more organized. Within specific patches or “domains”, all of its molecules point in the same direction. This phenomenon is known as polar ordering, and its ...

More than 100 years after a pair of imaginative physicists first proposed a new phase of liquid crystal, scientists at the University of Colorado Boulder have managed to produce it and have been ...

Researchers at CU Boulder’s Soft Materials Research Center (SMRC) have discovered an elusive phase of matter, first proposed more than 100 years ago and sought after ever since. The team describes the ...

Clark agrees, saying that the discovery of a liquid crystal could lead to new technological innovations, from new types of display screens to reimagined computer memory. "There are 40,000 research ...

Hydrogels have a variety of applications including tissue engineering and controlled drug delivery. Here, liquid-crystal hydrogels are developed which transform into a fluid solution upon cooling ...

Liquid crystals are composed of organic, rod-shaped molecules that align in parallel, and the common types used in electronic displays are nematic, cholesteric and smectic. See LCD , LCD types and ...

Liquid crystal is widely used nowadays, for example, as a core element of LCD devices. The magnetic analog of this kind of material is dubbed the "spin-nematic phase," where spin moments play the ...

This preferred order, called the nematic director, can be easily influenced by the application of weak electrical, magnetic or optical fields. In a twisted-nematic LCD, nematic liquid crystal is ...
