We examine how curing condition affects the alternation of electro-optical properties of reverse-mode polymer network liquid crystal with UV-curable silica nanoparticles (UVC-NPs). It is found that incorporation of UVC-NPs has almost the same effect as increasing the curing temperature by around +10°C.
