Graphene oxide (GO) in various concentrations (0.04 wt.%, 0.1 wt.% and 0.3 wt.%) was dispersed into nematic liquid crystal (LC) 5CB and studied for electro-optical, dielectric and optical responses. The textural and phase transition studies were investigated by optical polarising microscopy in the nematic phase. The effect of GO concentration on the micro-texture, phase transition temperatures, birefringence, threshold voltage, contrast ratio, dielectric permittivity, dielectric loss and conductivity was also investigated. The nematic–isotropic transition temperature slight increases (~3%) in the 0.04 wt.% and 0.1 wt.% GO dispersed 5CB composites as compared to 5CB. Threshold voltage decreases in the GO–5CB composites with the increase of GO concentration. Additionally, the effect of GO concentration on the optical absorbance of UV–visible light and energy bandgap is also considered. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
