Abstract

Flexible liquid crystal displays require the same performance as standard displays, ideally, even when they are bended, which poses requirements also to materials used for the various working functions. Sheets formed by aligned carbon nanotubes are flexible, electrically conductive and quite transparent thus attractive as electrodes but also as aligning layers for LC flexible displays. Unidirectional planar alignment of nematics can be obtained with CNT sheets, even if there are still many open issues. Here we study optically and dielectrically the magnetic field reorientation of nematic LC aligned by CNT sheets, more specifically, of 5CB in CNTs - TN cells.
