Abstract

Effect of ferroelectricity on the photorefractive effect of ferroelectric liquid crystal blends was investigated. The photorefractive effect of ferroelectric liquid crystal blends strongly depend on the ferroelectricity of the blend. We have prepared a series of ferroelectric liquid crystal blends that contains several concentrations of a chiral compound while keeping a constant concentration of a photoconductive moiety. The photorefractive properties of the ferroelectric liquid crystal blends were discussed with relations to the ferroelectric properties of the blends.
