Abstract
The paper describes an experimental study of the held-controlled light tran smittance of composites containing a cholesteric liquid crystal and a cross linked polymer. Depending on the polymer concentration, a two- or three-sta ge reorientation process was observed. The influence of polymer concentrati on on the angular dependence of light transmittance of the LC composites wa s studied.
