商品簡介
Forty-four papers presented at the April 1996 symposium advancing the understanding of liquid crystals in advanced technologies and sharing new development approaches. The articles feature highlights from new innovations in polymers based on polydienes, the ring-opening polymerization of oxiranes and oxitanes, block-LC copolymers, photoreactive cholesteric materials, new fluorinated low-molar mass compounds for LCD applications, novel glass forming low-molecular-weight liquid crystals, and progress in the area of switchable scattering films and diffractive gratings formed by a number of phase separation processes. Includes illustrations, equations, and some photographs. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
