Abstract
The electro-optical (EO) light-switching properties of wedge-formed microscale droplet-gradient single layers of polymer-dispersed liquid crystals (PDLC) are examined. Related to the wedge dimension, the liquid-crystal droplets in the layers reach several tens of micrometers. Being precisely controlled by the layer thickness, the variable droplet size can be of use for EO light control..
