While we have had E Ink e-paper display for a while now, it is the color e-paper display that has turned out to be the newest ...

Schematic illustration (left) and photos (right) of a standard cholesteric liquid crystal device. The green bars in the left figure are guides indicating positions with the same helix phase.

E Ink, a leader in electrophoretic e-paper technology, faces competition from IRIS Optronics, known for its cholesteric liquid crystal e-paper technology... Save my User ID and Password Some ...

A bistable LCD screen that retains its image without power. Cholesteric LCDs use nematic liquid crystal molecules in a layered, spiral formation (chiral nematic), and power is only required to ...

In a leap forward for materials science, a multi-institutional team of researchers has developed a pioneering method of 3D printing cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs), enabling complex, ...
