Recently, light controlling device for windows have been much attention that control of sunlight transmission and protect of privacy in architecture, automobile and airplane. Polymer dispersed liquid crystal materials are mainly used for light controlling materials. In this study, we developed thermosensitive light-controlling materials with alchoxycyanobiphenyl liquid crystals by easier processing methods. The fabricated sample cell showed optical scattering property between ca. 30 degree and 45 degree.
