  1. 1. Investigations of Optical Properties and Photo-Alignment in Bistable Nematic Liquid Crystal Displays

    Författare :Jesper Osterman; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Kent Skarp; Peter Raynes; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering physics; LCD; liquid crystal; bistable; nematic; optical; modes; photo-alignment; Teknisk fysik; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years portable electronic devices, such as mobile phones and personal digital assistants, have increased the demand for high performance displays with low power consumption. An interesting candidate with the potential of fulfilling these demands is the reflective single-polarizer surface controlled bistable twisted nematic liquid crystal display. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ellipsometry; liquid crystal; LCD; optical anizotropy; electrochromic; inverse problems; Optics; Optik; Optical physics; Optisk fysik; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys; Solid State Physics; fasta tillståndets fysik; Information Systems; data- och systemvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation is focused on theoretical and experimental studies of optical properties of materials and multilayer structures composing liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and electrochromic (EC) devices. By applying spectroscopic ellipsometry, we have determined the optical constants of thin films of electrochromic tungsten oxide (WOx) and nickel oxide (NiOy), the films’ thickness and roughness.

  4. 3. DNA Electrophoresis: Optical Probing and Microscopic Imaging to Understand Separation Mechanisms

    Författare :Anette Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; optical probing; YOYO; polarized light spectroscopy; DNA electrophoresis; DAPI; binding modes; helix alignment; fluorescence microscopy;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this work was to combine spectroscopic, mobility, and fluorescence microscopy studies to elucidate the mechanisms behind DNA electrophoresis, a method to separate DNA molecules according to size. The microscopy studies require staining of the DNA with a fluorescent dye. LÄS MER

  5. 4. On the Optics and Surface Physics of Liquid Crystals

    Författare :Pontus Jägemalm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
