Optical Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18031773 titled 'Optical Device

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an optical device that includes multiple layers and a liquid crystal element.

  • The device consists of a first outer substrate, a second outer substrate, and a liquid crystal element positioned between them.
  • There are also two intermediate layers, one between the first outer substrate and the liquid crystal element, and another between the second outer substrate and the liquid crystal element.
  • The combined thickness of these intermediate layers is at least 800 μm.
  • The liquid crystal element itself includes a first base layer, a second base layer, and a liquid crystal layer between them.
  • A pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is present between the first base layer and the liquid crystal layer.
  • A spacer is used to maintain a gap between the first and second base layers.


Original Abstract Submitted

An optical device is disclosed herein. In some embodiments, an optical device includes a first outer substrate, a second outer substrate, a liquid crystal element positioned between the first outer substrate and the second outer substrate, a first intermediate layer between the first outer substrate and the liquid crystal element, and a second intermediate layer between the second outer substrate and the liquid crystal element, wherein a sum of total thicknesses of the first and second intermediate layers is 800 μm or more, and wherein the liquid crystal element includes a first base layer, a second base layer, a liquid crystal layer between the first base layer and the second base layer, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer between the first base layer and the liquid crystal layer, and a spacer to maintain a gap between the first and second base layers.
