摘要
A simple method to determine a liquid crystal composite's birefringence is used to quantify the influence of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) on the optical properties of the host. Experimental light intensity versus applied voltage data for five different samples containing 5CB nematic and multiwalled nanotubes with mass fractions of 0.61% 0.36%, 0.22% and 0.097% were recorded and analyzed. The results show a constant decrease of the birefringence independently of the clustering effect appearing in samples containing more than 0,5% mass fraction of MWCNTs.
