Theoretical study of the dielectric properties of the carbon nanotubes doped nematic liquid crystal

The dielectric properties of the carbon nanotubes (CNT) doped nematic liquid crystal (NLC) are studied theoretically. The temperature and frequency dependence of the real and imaginary part of the complex dielectric permittivity and dielectric loss factor of the CNT doped NLC are calculated. The effects of CNT on the real and imaginary part of dielectric permittivities are discussed by comparing with experimental results. An appreciable change in the dielectric permittivity has been observed in the CNT doped NLC.
