Abstract
A proper amount of 0.02wt.% multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was added in the nematic liquid crystal (LC). Based on dipolar orientation polarization and space charge polarization conceptions, a simplified theoretical model of the charge transfer complex formed by LC and MWCNTs has been developed and utilized to analyze the dynamic behavior. The driven frequency range was 10Hz-10 KHz. Compared to the applied voltage driven method, focusing time has altered from 2.63 s to 0.096 s, and its response time has reduced to 0.4 s with frequency driven method. The doped LC lens under frequency driven has indicated a significant difference of the performances compared to the pure LC lens under applied voltage driven.
