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 ...

Microdisplays based on liquid-crystal-on-silicon technology may soon gain wider recognition as they penetrate an increasing number of markets, ranging from electronic viewfinders to miniature data ...

While we have had E Ink e-paper display for a while now, it is the color e-paper display that has turned out to be the newest ...

However, expanding this to two-dimensional systems presented new challenges, including the risk of disruptions in the liquid-crystal patterns that would affect light behavior. To overcome this ...

LLNL researchers are pioneering a coaxial DIW method for 3D printing cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs).

In 1888, liquid crystals were identified by Austrian botanist Friedrich Reinitzer and German physicist Otto Lehmann. Studying the cholesterol in carrots using a temperature-controlled polarizing ...

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 ...
