Abstract: | The effects on response times of representative commercially available dielectrically negative (−LC) and positive (+LC) type liquid crystal mixtures doped with small quantities of various tetrafluorinated cycloalkoxyphenyl ether derivatives were investigated. The synthesis of various polyfluoroaryl systems by nucleophilic aromatic substitution processes is described and electro-optical measurements concerning the rise and decay times and voltage holding ratios of each doped LC formulation are reported. The response time of the dielectrically negative LC host was improved upon doping with each of the tetrafluorinated cycloalkoxyphenyl ether derivatives, although no improvement in the performance of the dielectrically positive LC host was achieved. |
