Our Expertise with Light Control Films

Kent Displays Inc.’s (KDI) background in liquid crystal (LC) based displays and roll-to-roll/part manufacturing puts us in a unique position of being able to develop light control films that span application needs across a large gamut of industries.

Optical and Device Engineering

KDI has engineered optical stack-ups and devices that embody a variety of light control functionality including but not restricted to:

  • Switchable reflectors and notch filters (both broad- and narrow band) across the visible and near-infrared spectrum.
  • Patterned scattering films for waveguide applications.
  • Tunable Light scattering films of varying modalities (under the SwitchVue™ brand).
  • Tinting films (with and without light scattering functions).
  • Light retardance films.

Materials Development

Our R&D and engineering teams work to bring their expertise in formulation design and materials selection to impart the desired functionality and performance to the devices. This includes:

  • LC and LC-polymer composites for device active layers.
  • Manipulating UV curing induced phase-separation to achieve desired morphologies and performance.
  • Selecting alignment layers to induce the LC textures need for desired optical properties.
  • Substrate, sealant and adhesive selection for fabrication of rugged devices that can withstand environmental stressors like temperature, UV, humidity and mechanical load.
  • Selecting the right conductive layers to meet design and integration needs.
