Dopant Effect and Cell-Configuration-Dependent Dielectric Properties of Nematic Liquid Crystals

The dielectric polarizations induced by impurity ions in both high- and low-resistivity nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) were investigated. Upon adding carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as a dopant, the former showed no distinct change in the low-frequency (< 102 Hz) dielectric spectrum, whereas the latter e...
