Abstract

The order parameters of some dichroic fluorescent dyes (naphthalene derivatives of bicarboxylic acid) in nematic liquid crystal matrices have been determined. The influence of the dye addition on the clearing temperature of the nematic host has been investigated. It has been found that the dyes studied can be utilized in the guest-host liquid crystal displays working both in passive and active modes.
