LIQUID CRYSTALLINE MATERIALS AND OPTICAL DISPLAYS UTILIZING SAME

摘要

Disclosed is a new family of Liquid Crystalline Materials for use in optical display devices having the general formula: The members of the family of materials are characterized by having a broad nematic operating range in conjunction with low viscosity and exhibit fast response times to a controlled electrical field in the lower temperature regions of their nematic operating range and may be mixed with other members of the family or with other liquid crystalline materials and/or homologous non-liquid crystalline materials.
