How is it possible that a plastic film can show the same optical effects as the liquid crystalline material in the display cell?

The trick is to use a polymer with side-chains that are similar to the liquid crystalline molecules applied in display cells.
The polymer backbone provides the stability of a plastic film.
The side-chain LC fragments have enough free space to adapt to temperature changes in the same way as the LC molecules in the display.

The latest in production facilities
Twistar™ retarders are manufactured at Dejima Optical Films’ cleanroom facilities in Arnhem.
Our production is based on our long-term experience with and knowledge of optical polymers and high precision coat technologies.
