Abstract :
Experimental samples of polymer-dispersed liquid crystals (PDLC) of uniform and periodic spatial structure have been obtained and studied. The characteristic sizes of PDLC droplets and the refraction-index modulation range have been estimated by analyzing the texture of these samples and the diffracted-light intensity.
