Abstract

In this work the polarization absorption spectrum of homeotropically oriented comb-shaped liquid crystal polymer (LCP) film interposed in the electrooptical cell was investigated. The optical parameters of electrodes were estimated from the observed absorption spectra of the cell with and without polymer film using the method of interferometric extrema envelopes. This method enabled us to re-establish the true polarization absorption spectrum of the polymer. For this purpose the refractive index dispersion data of the substrates and the polymer obtained by independent investigation were used.
