The Spectral Properties of New Types of Fluorescence Dyes in Nematic Liquid Crystals

Abstract
The spectral properties of the new class of fluorescent dyes in isotropic and anisotropic (liquid crystals) solvents have been investigated. The main purpose of these investigations was to get some information on these dyes in order to utilize them in colored liquid crystal displays. These dyes align well in nematic liquid crystals and have high fluorescence yield, therefore the authors tried to apply one of them in two various types of liquid crystal displays.
