of liquid crystals — and this makes them more manageable.
If we could make liquid crystal molecules obey these rules, «we could potentially create a whole new class»
of liquid crystals, he says.
Here you can crank a handle to generate electricity to electrolyse water into hydrogen and oxygen (and recombine them with a bang), operate a miniature chemical plant or a gas scrubber, measure the pH of various common substances, or discover your personal hot spots by lying against a large sheet
of liquid crystals.
The type
of liquid crystals the researchers investigated in this study are lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals, or LCLCs.
(If that sounds like an improbable basis for a display technology, keep in mind that LCD displays are after all comprised
of liquid crystals, which were first discovered in the 1888 and took an eternity to develop into a commercially viable state.)
The vertical polarizing filter in front
of the liquid crystals blocks out all light waves except those vibrating vertically.

Unlike conventional
liquid crystals where electrical connections on the plates create the fields required to switch individual pixels from light to dark, optically rewritable LCDs coat the plates with special molecules that realign in the presence
of polarized light and switch the pixels.
However, when plates bend, it forces the
liquid crystal away from the impact site and leaves sections
of the screen blank and so alterations in spacer design are critical to prevent
liquid crystal in flexible LCDs from moving excessively.
