Abstract
Structural, electrical and optical characterization of polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) doped with small amount of inorganic nanoparticles (NP) are studied. The ZnO/CdO NP Doped PDLC is prepared using solvent induce phase separation method (SIPS). The prepared ZnO/CdO NP doped PDLC are studied by XRD, TG/DTA, SEM, UV, dielectric measurement, conductivity measurement, and the cole-cole plot . The semi conducting nature of the grown samples were confirmed by the semicircle nature of the impedence spectrum. The optical and electrical properties of the PDLC is enhanced on the addition of ZnO/CdO Nanoparticles to the PDLC matrix.
