We have developed flexible polymer network liquid crystals using liquid crystalline dendrimers that induce spontaneous vertical alignment without alignment film. Flexible PNLC with high haze value and high flexibility was realized by the electrohydrodynamic convection due to the liquid crystalline dendrimers.
