Provided are additive liquid crystalline compounds that, when added to one or more other components, form a mixture which can be supercooled. One class of additive liquid crystalline compounds are silyl-containing liquid crystalline compounds. Also provided are devices incorporating one or more silyl-containing liquid crystalline compounds described herein and optionally one or more other components. The invention also includes the method of using liquid crystalline mixtures containing silyl-containing liquid crystalline compounds to suppress the crystallization, in a liquid crystal cell, of these mixtures at temperatures below their crystallization point.
提供了添加剂液晶化合物,当添加到一个或多个其他组分中时,形成可以超冷的混合物。其中一类添加剂液晶化合物是含有
硅基的液晶化合物。还提供了包含一个或多个上述所述的
硅基液晶化合物和可选的一个或多个其他组分的装置。本发明还包括使用含有
硅基液晶化合物的液晶混合物的方法,以在低于其结晶点的温度下抑制液晶电池中这些混合物的结晶。
