Description

A kind of high-efficiency polymer-liquid crystal composite optical grating and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The invention belongs to electric light functional material preparation field, be specifically related to a kind of high-efficiency polymer-liquid crystal composite optical grating and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Known in this field, the Bragg body grating that specific inductive capacity has sinusoidal pattern modulation has very high diffraction efficiency, diffraction efficiency and incident wavelength, and incident angle, body Refractive Index of Material depth of modulation is (Δ n), and the relating to parameters such as the thickness of body grating.The incident ray that meets Bragg condition in theory diffraction efficiency can reach 100%.
Polymer-liquid crystal compound substance is as a kind of electric light functional material, due to its can be automatically controlled optical property, be applied to preparing in the research of Bragg body grating, but its general effect is still undesirable.Be mainly manifested in diffraction efficiency not high, be less than 85%. scattering losses large etc., and driving voltage be high, exceedes 18V/ μ m etc.
The main cause one that the problems referred to above exist is good not to grating formation process parameter control in common holographic preparation method, as exposure intensity and time shutter.Thereby easily form larger liquid crystal droplet.In addition, driving voltage is too high, is commonly referred to be being separated of liquid crystal and polymkeric substance bad, and the liquid crystal area in the optical grating construction forming exists polymkeric substance and remaining monomer.The diffraction efficiency of the transmission-type grating of the reports such as Caputo reaches 98%, photoswitch control voltage is 5V/ μ m[], wherein, make above holographic exposure by material being heated to liquid crystal cleaning point, to form so-called polymer-liquid crystal stratiform new construction (POLYCRYPS), realize being preferably separated of liquid crystal and polymkeric substance.
According to the one dimension reaction-diffusion theory [Zhao] of at present current photopolymerization, the reaction of monomer and diffusivity all can be index decreased along with the increase of polymer concentration in reaction. the monomer [maji] that therefore can contain unreacted in the dark space of holographic exposure process (being rich solution crystalline region) and fully not spread.Visible this traditional holographic exposure (so-called single stage method onestep) is at present realized the optical grating construction that liquid crystal-polymerization is separated, even if there is Mr.'s deficiency of the imperfection of monomer reaction and diffusion. adopt the time shutter of 1000 seconds of Caputo, can not say that the monomer in dark space has not just existed.So conventionally also will carry out UV uniform exposure (flood) to sample after holographic exposure, to eliminate monomer remaining in grating.In this process, diffraction efficiency has decline to a certain degree conventionally. and the monomer that shows these remaining (mainly in liquid crystal areas) is now able to polymerization; consequently can change both structures of the established polymer-liquid crystal grating with high-diffraction efficiency on the one hand; in addition also in the mixed network structure of some unsound polymer-liquid crystals of rich solution crystal zone formation, thereby increase the anchoring strength to liquid crystal.
In view of the above problems, eliminate remaining monomer in liquid crystal area, will become stabilizing device performance and reduce the key of driving voltage with the hybrid structures of avoiding forming Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, the polymer-liquid crystal composite grating structure of the low driving fast-response of a kind of high-level efficiency is provided.Its grating vector direction keeps the modulation of (closely) sinusoidal pattern specific inductive capacity, and to realize in liquid crystal layer containing the pure phase structure of the monomer of polyreaction not. this optical grating construction can make diffraction effectively concentrate on single order and eliminate high-order loss. and the pure phase structure of liquid crystal layer can make liquid crystal tie up to strain flexibly under outer field action simultaneously, reach the effect that reduces grappling, thereby reduce driving voltage. and by controlling suitable grating thickness to reach corresponding response speed.
